A lot of liberals want to make it illegal for kids to be sad online and talk to their only friends (also online) about it rather than try to make the world someplace worth living in.

"Phones are making everyone miserable!"

Motherfucker, it's not the phones.

If our phones delivered happy news, if kids felt loved and safe and had someplace else to be, do you still think phones would be the problem?

"Oh, no, the algorithm is addictive because it makes them feel good about themselves."

@gwynnion What they mean, and what they don't like, is that phones are allowing us to see that we're not alone in our miseries and our understandings of them, but that it's something we all share and that the causes are something we have in common.
@gwynnion could it be... the horrible shit happening everywhere all the time that we find out about via the phones??
