0:00
I think we have to actually stop
0:01
pretending that the people who are
0:03
pushing this so hard are doing it to
0:05
protect the children. Because if they
0:07
really were, there are far more depraved
0:09
things that they could be banning, but
0:11
they're just not going there. And I've
0:13
said this from the beginning that I
0:14
think that social media is very harmful
0:16
for children. I think that it's been a
0:18
guinea pig generation, and I think we're
0:20
yet to see the long-term consequences,
0:23
unfortunately, on these children. So,
0:25
I'm all for monitoring, limiting,
0:28
banning uh children from this. But I
0:30
have always been an advocate that this
0:32
needs to come from the home, not from
0:34
the government. And that if we give the
0:36
government the keys to tell us how to
0:39
police our own children, it's a very
0:42
slippery slope. And just like during
0:45
COVID, the government used the elderly
0:47
as a pretext for all of their tyrannical
0:49
measures, I believe this is another
0:52
pretext that the government are using in
0:54
order to push this legislation through
0:56
because who in their right mind wants to
0:58
say out loud, "No, no, we shouldn't ban
1:00
it for the children because it makes you
1:02
appear like you don't care for the
1:03
children." So, they're very clever in
1:06
how they've marketed this legislation
1:07
because anyone who pushes against it,
1:09
they're going to slap him with the label
1:11
of being all for child abuse. But like,
1:14
you know, I think that what we need to
1:16
remember is that it was only a few years
1:18
ago the government tried to come out and
1:20
uh ban anonymous account users on the
1:23
internet. Now, obviously, this caused a
1:25
massive amount of push back and they
1:26
sort of retracted and went this isn't
1:28
going to work. So, how can we make this
1:30
happen? And then it was shortly after
1:31
that the narrative shifted and that's
1:34
when the children came into play. And I
1:36
think things like YouTube, like you
1:38
said, it's such a slippery slope. I know
1:40
so many people use this as supplementary
1:41
education for their children. A lot of
1:43
homeschool families use it. And where
1:45
does it end? So I think always it these
1:48
sorts of things need to come from the
1:51
home and it's so easy like you said
1:53
Caleb for parents to say to their
1:55
children, well the government has banned
1:57
it, so that's easy. But I think that's a
2:03
over you and what's that setting up in
2:06
these kids' minds for the long
