  Censorship, what does that have to do with the current conversation of the United States attempts at censorship of the Pro-Palestine narrative?

    So banning social media platforms for censorship is okay, but if you do the same for protecting children’s mental health it is not? Isn’t that weird?

      Ah, a troll gotcha. Nowhere did I say China was good. That is just a bad faith take. I was hoping you were actually trying to learn. Don’t bother responding, you are blocked.

        It is a ‘bad faith take’ if one thinks that ‘China is good’? Is that right?

      Car dependency has created a world that forces children to live online since they can’t do anything outside without their parents driving them around. So I just don’t see how banning TikTok does anything to address the root problem. Banning Tiktok does nothing to solve the root issue of lacking 3rd places and community.
