LOL

In just six years he’s gone from being a visionary to the poster boy for stupidity. Who did he honestly think was buying his cars? Because it wasn’t the fascists.

That’s their job

Is it though? In Donald’s America?

Holy shit.

Kudos to this judge for knowing their shit and acting on it. I love it.

I love that.

And all Democrats will offer is sternly-worded letters in “opposition”.

Good.

I’m sick of this indirect taxation bullshit.

Seat belts are different because if someone is in a car is not wearing one and carrying passengers, that person will become a 200 pound pinball in case of a crash and crush everyone else to death.

Spoken like someone who hasn’t read up on how social media algorithms work, nor their effects on people’s cognitive abilities. Have you seen the photos of parents with their dead kids at the various court hearings lately?

Do YOU want to sign away your ability to criticize Trump and ICE because some dipshit parent didn’t do what they’re supposed to fucking do and got their kid groomed?

Slippery slope fallacy. We use ID to regulate all manner of things here in the US, and I’m still able to obtain them. And yes, given the gravity of the harm being caused to young people by social media, I’m happy to provide my ID in order to lock them out of it until they’re adults, at least until a better and easier solution to the problem materializes.

People made that exact same argument over seat belt laws. The only difference now is that the car crashes are happening digitally.

Really does. Has Pablo Escobar vibes to it.

This and the lawsuits against Meta, TikTok, and others are inevitable.

In the absence of essential government regulation, even in the face of significant adverse consequences for young people and their welfare, civil lawsuits will have to be enough to force these shitty companies to act appropriately.

Parents’ refusal to parent is why regulation is essential.

Any time I hear a story like this, all I can think of his how countries worldwide need to tax the billionaires more.

What bugs me is that is really shouldn’t be legal for tech companies to just unilaterally decide that the local residents are going to subsidize their power costs.

But we’re in America, where every single douchy thing a capitalist can do will absolutely be done, and both of our ruling parties will just shrug and keep collecting their bribes in the interim.

Good on the people for waking up to this and fighting back.

Don’t know much about this case, but that it has occurred twice appears to be pretty damning. Yikes.

Arrested on his birthday too.

Love seeing this creep go down.

True but it’s an easy fix. If you can set up a dual boot you can fix the boot order.

Is that a serious question?

Also why we need government regulation of social media, because individuals will never self-regulate properly en masse.

Hell yeah, brother. People have elevated the presumed sanctity of their beliefs, no matter how stupid, to be the most sacred of liberties. Even over life and health.

Get on Linux anyway. You have no privacy whatsoever on Windows.

However, if you (like me) have to dual-boot, remember that O&O ShutUp can help you easily turn off Windows’ insidious tracking measures and delete Copilot off your system.
