Through war not chaos.

I'm not even American

Fair enough, I'm just glad I got to post it haha

Here is a great example of the "if you're not with us you're against us" mentality: https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2021/may/28/centrism-insidious-bias-unjust-status-quo

Reasonable views being cancelled:

Bari Weiss: A former opinion editor and writer at The New York Times, Weiss is known for her centrist views, often critiquing both the far-left and far-right. In July 2020, she resigned from the newspaper, citing a hostile work environment and alleging that her centrist stances led to bullying by colleagues. ​

Example of extremes people will go to silence the moderates...

Stefan Gelbhaar: A member of Germany's Green Party, Gelbhaar, associated with the party's more centrist "Realo" wing, was forced to withdraw from the federal election race following false sexual harassment allegations. An investigation later revealed that the accusations came from a fictitious persona created by a local Green official, leading to internal tensions within the party.

But how would that header be verified?

It has to be verified at some point by someone.

That header could also easy be used to exploit children online. All I would need to do is a simple intercept to log headers.

Either trust parents to do their jobs fully, and then hold them accountable, or draw a line at which point a child can be reasonably held responsible.

If a 6 year old steals, it's the 6 year olds fault. They're tried differently, but they still know bette, this isn't any different. But obviously a 6 year old should not be accessing porn for a plethora of reasons.

We disagree on the foundation of your argument, and that's okay. The end state, I can 100% get behind and that's some common ground.

Kids are babied already but if 14 year olds can vote in party elections, and 16 year olds can consent to sexual intercourse with adults, then I don't think restricting porn is our problem. Either kids can make decisions, or all of these laws need to align with each other more logically.

We have taken parents rights away to allow children to make decisions on their gender and name changes, yet we expect parent to be responsible for their actions like accessing porn.

I could not care less about whatever the final say is on age restrictions, but if there are gonna be rules, at least make them make sense you know? I also do not love that I have to verify my identity to use the internet. Look at the UK and how that's working out there even without IDs. Talk about authoritarian control.

This stuff is the whole reason I switched to this platform.

I love that we've gone so far that finally the left and right are on the same page. This is the progress I've dreamed of.

Giving the government more power is like letting someone beat you up for his fare when you could just walk 1km.
