Well yeah, this isn't about just sexualising a specific group of people without concent, its the fact that X is fundamentally an acid bath that corrodes everyone that touches it. Nobody is safe in this case as everyone is impacted - no matter the age or gender.

There are 2 terrorists on that plane.

It was a pact made with the devil from the start. This is what happens when the USA gets constantly sucked up to because they are the "powerhouse" of the world. The problems where already obvious due to the flawed way everything is centralized towards this country.

As the point stands, the leaders of other countries are to scared to stand their ground against fascist trump. Of course this may change, but the thing is; signs of inadequacy where there from early on, it's just that only a select few really seemed to care about it.

The reality is that women are treated differently by society for exactly the same reason that children and the mentally handicapped are treated differently. It’s just easier this way for everyone.

What a flawed way of thinking. His entire life is just spent being a discriminatory prick; sexism, ageism, ableism and racism could be deduced from this sole comment, it is sad that this is the life he had chosen.

Instead of unifying people irrespective of gender, age, race, etc. He choose to go against his own kind - like the narcissist he is.

Children shouldn't really be within the internet without supervision, parental controls are one thing but in school, children should be carefully guided as to digital skills and life. It quite self explanatory that children are incapable of using such technology as they're still developing independent thinking and the fundament aspects of computing.

It's only when children become teenagers, they become independent thinkers and where self-control and maturity could be at par with adults. In this case, age isn't the problem - but the systematic methodology in which AI enables more "streamlined" approach which "gets the job done".

Of course your statement highlights children, but the fact is; when those children become capable teenagers they're just as "equipped" as adults - the only problem with teens and adults being the technical experience and knowledge which may vary.

This is literally the illustration of most things within the world. The corporations/governments rather muddy the waters than actually do what has to be done.

Praise is given for effectively doing a cheap act of "niceness" that is more harmful in the long run. It is a method of deceiving the public, and taking advantage of a minority to precisely execute their evil intentions.

In this case, disability is one thing, but age and other factors are also used as a leverage point.

I assumed it was clear what I meant,

Unfortunately not. There are many individuals which are dissapointed due to the failed efforts of the blanket bans, but ultimately stand for them.

Aside from that, this problem is defacto already partially solved. As you said parental supervision - parental controls are proven to be extremely effective at what they do, if they are utilised correctly.

But even so, you are highlighting the need for separation of developing minds even if that statement has no basis on age. If you're serious about it, then the whole internet should be designed to be safe for everyone.

I agree, we do.

That is true. The effects of social media shall not be applied to just the children and consequently also the teens, but to all the people. Such laws are basically half measures which do more harm than good.

Regulation is what should be done; if efficiency is what we strive for, why aren't the corporations responsible for this not being regulated. A safe internet shall be safe for all - It is important to realise children grow up to be teenagers then adults just like everyone, such a disproportionate effort is completely unacceptable.

Why is it that we look at the ways the children circumvent this ban but not corporations? This law is not made for the people, it is made for the corporations.

I'm not opposed to the concept

That's such a poor way to say that you support blanket bans. Even if it worked, this approach has technological and egalitarian problems which are clearly missing from the scope of such laws.

It is important to highlight that we have teens grouped in there not just the children, so infact this kind of law will be doing more harm than good. But even if the law is rooted on ageism and discrimination, it is clear that all age groups are being violated of their human and youth rights.

Technologically, this blanket ban has no real effect, it has been proven that local parental controls for children and maybe for teens is way more effective - leaving the whole internet ageism free. In reality the internet should be safe for everyone rather than a select minority - taking half approaches like this is just an excuse to further segment the already segmented internet.

In addition, politically, these type of laws should be transparent. No matter what its aimed to do, non-transparent laws shall not be trusted. Open democracy was also what is missing from these laws.

Lemmy does have some eco-fascist takes. Its not often but you have situations where posts are infested with the most deranged reasoning. Instead of focusing on the root issue, the perspective is given towards normal people and how bans are the "way forward" rather than regulation.
