That’s such a good point.

Sometimes I do wish that my world were small enough to exclude knowledge about Hasan, or about the worms that burrow into children’s eyeballs, or the genocides of history, or any other kinds of evil.

No idea. I could write a lot about Hassan, but it’s not worth my time and it’s faster to relegate his fans to Trump supporter status.

I’m not denying that he sometimes utters the correct sentiments, but he has no principles. I’d consider him basically soulless.

I watched Hassan become famous and his dishonest narcissistic imbecility is about the only consistent feature of his character. The cult of celebrity has its hooks in you.

Performative politics is all the rage.

Hasan is a socialist at random. He’s utterly philosophically illiterate, so his positions are a flip of the coin. You might say, “fine, let’s use that,” and I agree - as long as you don’t lose sight of the fact that he’s a narcissistic grifter.

In all seriousness, you can’t entrust political significance to character-deficient, uneducated dingdongs with no commitment to reality.

Anyone know the source of this quote?

Why not just make it so nobody under 18 can own a smartphone. Why these fucking useless age checks.

Social media converted half of Americans into nazis in about a decade and elected Trump twice. If you don’t think the internet is dangerous, you’re not paying attention.

That said, it’s easy to keep kids off instagram and TikTok without spying. Simply require devices for children to be sold without access to half the internet. Problem solved.
