this shit pissing me off so much itโs literally months away you CANNOT know these dates yet, people are going to see this and believe itโs official information even though there is NO SOURCE. Please be careful out there and always question the information you see

I think a lot of the "anarchists are childish" arguments come from anarchists being the only ones taking teens seriously in their autonomy. And that reactionary tendency around kids is then exploited for shit like this.

โI didnโt watch the movieโ
Thereโs your problem right there
I didnโt watch the movie but discourse around it makes it feel like the point of this movie is that a lonely guy daring to want a girlfriend is an unforgivable sin

I know it's trendy to hate children online but genuinely what's the plan with dealing with the shock of going from the kiddie pool of censored controlled playground of apps to 100% adult commitments freedom at 18? Before at least young people could learn, express ideas and grow

This isnโt at all a ban for kids btw. Itโs the force adults to verify their ID on social media, horrendous

The average equation for likes to views is typically Views / 11= Likes
In its most simplist form, this is underperforming
This is one of the most blatantly bottled ratios I have seen in my life

Fascists tend to use children to take the rights of adults.
I might be wrong - But this new Social Media Ban for 16 year olds, actually means WE then HAVE TO PROVE we are over 16?? This means we have to use digital ID anyway now if we want to stay on here?

So 16 year olds are going to be voting on a diet entirely of their parents opinions, the BBC and the right wing pressโฆ

Because it means all of us will have to provide government ID to use these services moving forward

Exactly. Using YouTube logged out without any parental controls is WAY more dangerous for kids than allowing them to have an account
The worldโs governments donโt give a shit about protecting kids. They just want to collect and sell our data

Banning under-16s from YouTube mostly means banning them from logging in, which means YouTube will treat them less like kids and more like anonymous adults. Great job, UK.

> Give 16 year olds the vote because they are historically Labour supporting
> Absolutely nuke any chances of them ever voting for Labour

Poverty is making more children unhappy.
A third of our children are growing up in poverty.
When are they going to do something about that?

The concept of a 40 year old not being about to detect wit from from an under 16
18h
Even more reason to block it !!!
A child being on their phone for 9 hours and she canโt think of anything else to do but stare at a wall.
No wonder obesity is on the rise in children.
