Interesting to note here: getting preteens to confusedly call Congress with threats of self harm and questions like “what is Congress” with a push notification is not the best plan

Democracy doesn’t work when centralized powers build tools like TikTok or Facebook to influence people’s thoughts with bias and other psychological hacks.
If it were me, I would ban all social media platforms larger than 100,000, and create task forces to reign in on predatory marketing and social media collusion.
People just can’t be trusted to see how they are constantly being manipulated by companies with deep pockets and foreign governments. Children and adults alike. It’s not people’s fault either.
Either that or we need a widespread social repudiation of these platforms, a wake up to the fact that our minds are constantly being poisoned, like Tobacco was reigned in.
Tobacco took like 50 years. I genuinely don’t think we have the time ;-)
