In a perfect world I’m actually ok with this…the problem is this isn’t a perfect world and we all know it’s just a trojan horse for age verification as that’s the only way to actually implement it.
I disagree. We’re all accepting that the modern world exists primarily online, but instead of preparing our children for the online world, we build a walled garden with no access, until the age of 16 where they get unlimited, uninformed access.
The only solution to this problem is parents teaching and directing their children. The state cannot and should not be involved
Fair enough, I think in the real world parenting is the best solution. I just don’t see an advantage to children being on social media…but I personally think social media is mostly a cesspool and barely use it myself. I just can’t approve of something being used as an excuse to push age verification.
