Somehow it never crossed their minds to stop selling firearms to teens, but vendor Internet in the name of protecting kids? Sign us up. Fuck that.
Pretty much any bill, worldwide, that includes the phrase “project kids” is always about pushing censorship, government surveillance and other forms of oppression on everyone. And guess what: zero actual benefit to kids.
its always “protect children” or “terrorism”/“national security”
And then they lower the age that kids can get married to 14/15 (pedos!), and change labor laws so pre-teens can work in dangerous jobs or serve alcohol.
If they want to protect “children”, we need Xtra restrictive gun laws, and child abuse laws. Who protects children from abuse at home?
Not conservatives, they are the ones behind all this.Except when it’s guns
It is absolutely always one of those two, and they try this shit every session. Better solution? Kick any politician who signs off on these bills out of office and make it crystal clear that they’ve been booted because they’re anti-speech and anti-privacy.
Why old men are so obsessed with kids? Are they pedo or something?
It’s never about kids. If they gave half a fuck about kids, we’d have free school lunches and teachers would be paid a fair salary.
So long as the internet is around to distribute fact-checks and officer-involved homicide videos they have no plausible lies by which the 80% of us in poverty or precarity should tolerate the abuse of plutocrats and capitalists.
So this is a first amendment issue: it’s about suppression of political speech. It always was 🌍 👩🚀 🔫 👨🚀 🌑
They’re a convenient scapegoat. You can accuse the other side of not caring about/endangering children for political points, and children don’t have politically-relevant opinions, or votes, so you’re never going to have children speaking up and going “that’s not correct”, or protesting against you for a law you’ve passed. If they do end up protesting, you can point fingers at the parents and say that they’re indoctrinating the children.
Fine, so who will be judging if there’s a depressive content on the internet, a psychologist? Also how about non-US sites, will they be banned or something?
Perhaps politicians should concentrate on making it so there’s less depressing stuff in the world for anyone to see and hear, and not creating more of it with things like this rubbish bill. 🤷♀️
every time they say it’s to “protect the children” or “protect freedom” it is invariably neither.

Culturally we’re going back to the Middle Ages…
Specifically the Dark Ages.
woah no way
in other news, every sixty seconds in Africa, a minute passes.
Isn’t this also the bill that could screw up encryption too?
it has nothing to do with protecting children and everything to do with destroying privacy
why is it always the worst laws proposed under the guise of protecting children
Knowing Biden he’s all in on this, he signed off on the Patriot Act too so f*** him
neoliberals are just as bad as Republicans
Neoliberals are conservatives. They go on the same smoldering pile.
“The United States is also a one-party state, but with typical American extravagance, they have two of them.” - Julius Nyerere
My god that’s brilliant!
Not even close, but try again. They just look the same when you’re so far left you need to squint to see anyone to the right of you. There is a massive gap between “neoliberals” as you call them, and the modern conservative electorate. Those “neoliberals” also represent the majority of voters on the left, hence the guy who is president being one of them. Stay mad though.
You sure know how to use a lot of words to say nothing.
Every word uttered by a conservative is deception or manipulation. Even when no cogent thought is formed.
Nah they made perfect sense and you responded with “nuh uh”
Stay mad, lib
