The people insisting how brilliant banning social media is, because it “gets kids off their phones”, are the same people who call the police on groups of kids hanging out with their friends in public spaces because they’re a “nuisance”
Then say they’re “thinking of the children”
The people smugly gloating that young people will just have to 'find something else to do' in response to the social media bans are usually the exact same people who seethe with anger and make reports about 'loitering' whenever they have to share public spaces with teenagers.

People need to pay attention to what is happening in the UK, because they started all of this age verification stuff and then forced it to the rest of the world. It's digital colonialism.
the elite everywhere are terrified that controlling the narrative is a lot harder in the age of social media, and that’s why they are implementing these measures to limit access to news/knowledge to kids.
"Stare at a wall" is so apt bc there is literally nothing for kids to do here anymore. Parks are for young children, so teens get chased out, everything is super expensive so you can't go on a day out, and there's precious little nature left to explore.
