    Access to social media is far, far more dangerous to society than cigarettes. What a laughable comparison. I couldn’t care less if you’re high. That doesn’t affect me. It does affect me if you’re radicalized on Twitter, TikTok, or YouTube and voting for Trump.

    40% of Americans don’t believe in vaccines. How do you reckon they reached this conclusion? While science skepticism keeps rising, all in virtue of social media.

    54% of Americans can’t read. ACT/SAT data for college-bound seniors indicates that the next generation is even dumber than boomers, who had severe lead poisoning. Contemplate this fact for a second and tell me again how these drooling imbeciles need to have their access to Joe Rogan protected.

    Gacha games are like whippets. Why would you let children have access to this shit? What is the upside here?
