"While we need to listen to children, every child who disagrees with me is actually not credible and shouldn't be listened to. This is because I said so, which makes me correct."
I'm actually so fucking done with these people. This is an article I found on msn, I want to make it very clear that this dumbass had never even met the people he was talking about.
Here's the article if anyone's interested: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/other/we-ve-grown-up-with-it-it-s-vital-teens-oppose-social-media-ban/ar-AA2425lH
Also as a side note, the kids who were advocating against the bans kind of (unsurprisingly ) were only quoted a few times while random staff members at the school and just random people got whole paragraphs dedicated to them.
Like, idk, I didn't expect much but like, seriously bro. Kids can't even have one article about them without it needing to take half of it for Josh to talk about how people who disagree with him are bad and wrong because everyone who's ever looked at a screen under the age of 16 is actually addicted to it.
It's like they need to present a counter narrative to the pearl clutching boomers in their audience to help soothe their nerves after reading that children have some radical beliefs such as "I don't want a thing I like to be taken from me". Surely this is all because looking at youtube is actually like smoking a pack of cigarettes, not because children are people that like having autonomy because they're people.
