The repercussions of this shyt that will be seen in the next few decades

we already see it

just the influence of those outside the home are now more present

before children had to leave the home to get corrupted

now bad information follows them

Bro I know older adults who literally spend hours on that shyt that only used Facebook prior to it existing. Its extremely addictive. The funny thing is that it should be a person with ADDs dream but I cant concentrate for shyt and I HATE when people start using it around me, going from one random clip to the next the rapid change and loud fukking sounds is grating

that mess is terrible, I'll be sitting down in a quiet area then all of a sudden I hear that TikTok voice saying different stuff every 6 seconds

I don’t support children using social media, but for a party that calls themselves small government, they sure do love cherry picking how small the government should be.

Them 12th graders can vote in 2024

There're different factions of the republican party. Libertarians are the "small government" types. There are other factions thrilled with wading into censorship, banning, etc. These sides bump heads all the time.

This is one thing I can actually agree with Florida on.

Then again, I think all social media should be off limits to minors.
