    Currently it’s illegal for kids to smoke cigarettes, which is nowhere near as harmful as social media.

    You can read any of the gazillion pieces of research to reach this extremely obvious conclusion.

      I have read them. Cigarettes give you cancer and is not a hard drug. But it wasn’t my argument. I would think if they’re arguing it so blatantly they would have even a basic summary of why.

      This is patriot act levels of invasion. I need some damn answers why we’re doing this all again

        Social media isn’t even in the same class as smoking in terms of harm. It’s civilization ending. Smoking shortens lives on average. Social media is an existential threat. How do you think Trump got elected?
