    Unpopular opinion: it’s been extensively studied that addictive corporate social media like Instagram and TikTok cause developmental damage, depression, and can lead to suicide in a statistically significant proportion of young adolescents. It should be regulated just like we do with cigarettes.

      Yeah, it’s just that the R douchnozzles pushing it in most places also want to tack it on with secuality-related stuff, parent helicoptering and we’ll trodden and failed shit ideas of social control.

      Meanwhile not a single one of them will vote for internet privacy laws to slow the rape of Americans data on the daily.

      The judge’s arguments in this case are bogus - minors don’t have any free speech rights, or e.g. public schools wouldn’t be the free speech free zones that they are - but your argument is much, much worse, because it hurts adults and minors. You want to see where your argument leads, go look at the state of porn in Louisiana.
