@inference @catgirl https://www.theguardian.com/society/2022/feb/09/reddit-and-twitter-users-face-age-checks-under-uk-porn-law-planswtf this again -_-What is with governments and age checks? They seriously believe forcing people to send credit card info is "good for kids?"Kids never asked for this.And “Currently we’re doing nothing. Doing something to protect children, if not all children, has to be better than where we are now. The internet was designed by adults for adults.”Come on, are you seriously that egotistical / insecure to the point that you must believe that children are porcelain dolls which you have a duty to "protect their fragile minds from harm" because otherwise you wouldn't have even a shred of self worth?I seriously believe these people are mental. To me, if you want to believe in something, fine, but once you start trying to force that extremist belief on others to the point it becomes a nuisance, you have a problem.

@xynon @catgirl As someone who was a kid before the internet and that deals with kids today on a regular basis, y'all are pieces of shit and could only benefit from being kept off the internet until you're at least 18 unless it's for supervised research purposes.

@sergeantcat @catgirl @inference the idea is to only ban what is neccessary. For example, if some drivers are drunk, do we ban all drivers? No, we ban drunk drivers. Similarly, if some kids are stupid on the internet, do we ban all kids? No, we let the parents decide what is best for the kids. This is by no means a perfect system, however it is much better than the system you are suggesting, in which it is to ban all kids alike, destroying the dreams of those who have the ability to think for themselves and dreams they wish to accomplish. Sure, it may save a few extra stupid children from "mental damage", however, it comes back to the same idea that if drunk driving, a subset of driving, is inherently dangerous, we should ban all driving because it would save a few extra people from death.And this isn't even touching the implications of implementing such a system. It is a well known fact that sending credit card information over the internet to any website you visit is never a great idea. And now the government tells you you are legally required to do so? This is a great setup for identity theft and credit card fraud. Any random website could tell you it was "age-restricted" and tell you to send you credit card info.

@xynon @catgirl It's not about bad kids on the internet, it's about the development of kids being warped and them growing up to be warped adults. The internet is damaging.

@sergeantcat @catgirl @inference Did you even read my post? I was saying that the internet may damage some small fraction of kids, but banning all kids just to save that small fraction of kids from "mental damage?" is a terribly overblown reaction. Just like the real world can be damaging to anyone of any age, such as car crashes and school shootings, we still choose to live with it.

@xynon @catgirl I read your post. I'm saying that the changes in behavior in kids caused by the internet are so fundamental that you can't even see them. And they're overall to your detriment.

@sergeantcat @catgirl Where are these fundamental changes I am not seeing? And where is the proof that these "changes" are inherently "bad"? The internet is now a part of every modern person's life and failing to embrace it and the future, and trying to push and being proud of children being technologically illiterate is a fool's errand.

@xynon @catgirl Well, you're all a bunch of sexually confused faggots now, to start with. LMAO. You also don't have social skills that are worth a damn. You can't count. You can't retain information because you Google everything. You get roped into herd ideologies incredibly easily. You can't sit fucking still for more than 15 minutes without picking up a phone or having a panic attack or lashing out. Among other things.Note, this is a general "you" and not a you, you.Also, some of this applies to more than just kids today.

@xynon @sergeantcat @inference I will age gate my services before censoring content on them that said I'd like to keep the status quo where bad things exist online.It's the parents job to monitor their child, I'm not a babysitter.My content isn't intended for children, and it's not my responsibility to make sure they don't read it.We don't ban libraries because bad books exist which might influence children. Instead parents go with their child to the library. The same needs to exist with

@xynon @sergeantcat @inference the internet. Parents use the internet with their child. Not their child has an unfiltered install of google chrome on their tablet and browses unsupervised. At that point the parent is in the wrong, not the website owner who published something you don't want your child reading.

@catgirl @sergeantcat @inference I agree that it is the parent's responsibility to monitor their child and decide what content they should steer their child away from. The government shouldn't try to force a hard age limit on the internet.That being said, I also believe that thinking that all "children" 18- must not see "violent / adult content" is a complete overreaction for most children and is a stupid standard in general. Maturity varies between humans just like all traits do, all people of all ages can be as stupid as they want. And there is also the fact that for normal people (yes children are humans too), seeing a violent video game will not make you turn into a serial killer when you grow up (same with p**n).

@xynon @catgirl @sergeantcat This is exactly how it is. What's funny is when people call you a pedophile for liking someone who is 1 day younger than being legal age (because 1 day is *definitely* going to make you less mature...), but they are all on it only 1 day later. It's literally the definition of moronic.To add to this, some countries have lower ages of consent, meaning you're somehow not a pedophile if you do it there, but you are a pedophile if you do it in a country where the age of consent is higher. This shows that the word "pedophile" is an opinion rather than a fact.Whether you're in Spain, Japan, US, doesn't matter; every human is a human, and it doesn't make it worse just because you stepped over a non-existent line called a border.Example:"You're a pedophile because you're 18 and you like a 15 year old girl!"*1 week later, after the girl's 16th birthday, where the age of consent is 16.*"Yeah! She's cute! Go for it, dude!"Yes, because 1 week made her so much more mature and changed the entire universe, overnight.
