CHAOS CONTROL

If it wasn’t for bad luck, I wouldn’t have any luck at all, He/They

[Alonso Gurmendi @Alonso_GD]

Gen Z is infinitely more informed than the Boomer generation. Denying them their main source of information is an attack on their freedom of thought and speech all based on the prejudice that kids are all naive idiots that waste time online. Its an ageist policy

[Ranty Man @RanTeeThree]

It’s important to know that the social media ban for under 16s is not a ban for under 16s.

It is a ban on *selected* social media for EVERYONE. Until you identify yourself.

[Taylor Lorenz @TaylorLorenz]

Studies in AUS found that since the social media ban went into effect teenagers are significantly less educated on news and events and more ignorant on what’s going on in the world. This is the goal. Western govts saw the rise of the information age and are seeking to quash it

[michelle. @michkeenah]

doing this without investing in kid-friendly public spaces and programmes makes no sense whatsoever. all this is gonna do is push kids to use more fringe and unregulated social media apps

This is the tragedy for the young generation, we all see the writing on the wall for the country we love, we all know what needs to be done

But boomers hold the controls and are being radicalised to drive us off a cliff and we will spend the rest of our lives fixing their mess

[Dr Ruby (she/her) jaboukies everything @PaperWhispers]

This is surveillance by stealth. It is not about child protection

[bug girl @buggirl]

in nature if a monkey hoarded 1 trillion bananas the other monkeys would beat that monkey to death and take his bananas

[Akilah Hughes @AkilahObviously]

The idea that Elon Musk worked harder than every person alive and who has ever lived is a very stupid and immature fairytale. Wake up. He’s robbing us.

[Soham @king26_sk]

hahaha well paid job where I do meaningful work and have friends and good commute and don't feel like kms lmaoooooo 🤣🤣

[H. @tbh_46]

He was jarring but he was TV, sad day #LoveIsland

[CHAOS CONTROL @_htmluke]

Loved seeing black guys that differ from the usual archetype get some representation, but why did it have to be him 😭

[Love Island @LoveIsland]

His unmatched bubbly energy will be missed in the Villa but after being ranked as part of the weakest Couple, Ope has been dumped from the Island 😔

[Ex-Grammaton Cleric @OtunbaBrickz]

This shit is meant to be hilarious but do you know how much hatred you have to have in your heart to be moved to tears like this! Even Hitler in all his rants wasn’t moved to tears by his antisemitism!

This is a level of hatred you can’t even begin to quantify! This is scary!

[Zack Polanski @ZackPolanski]

These aren't protests. They're racist riots. And it's time for the government to take them seriously.

The PM should be convening COBRA and setting out a real plan to end this horrific violence and bring communities together.

Now is a time for real leadership.

[Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan @MayorofLondon]

Complaining about nightlife when you *checks notes* choose to live in Soho is like living in South Kensington and complaining about the museums.

Or moving to Hackney and grumbling about creatives. Living in Richmond and hating green space. 

It's all getting a bit silly, isn't it?

[DBL MP / Double @dbl_mp1]

seriously how much more evidence do people need that this isn’t for the kids. It’s so freaking blatant kids are being used to implement surveillance and censorship.

[Tianna, the Writer @tiannathewriter]

Young writers now please. New production company to give this series some life and not become stuck in its own lore.

[El Cabbage @AlCabbage045]

Authoritarians have found a surprisingly effective compliance hack in implementing surveillance and censorship: claim that their overreach is protecting children, and you’d have to be an evil person to oppose that

Same playbook used to justify persecution of trans people

[Lauren🌸 @Laurenleah_]

I feel like everyone is giving Ope a bitttt to much of a hard time😭 it’s week one, Angelista isn’t giving him much. Do you guys want him to twiddle his thumbs orrrr? #loveisland #loveislanduk
