And it does. There are others here who basically posted that sentiment. And if none of those were satisfactory, you could have posted it yourself. Unless of course you’re upset that I literally posted first, before them. And that the order is the issue. Though that would be rather inane. But then so is the performative drama farming of announcing downvotes.

By pointing out that if it was actually about kids. What they’re doing isn’t effective and shouldn’t be what they’re doing? That’s not legitimization in my book. Believe me I regularly point out that it’s bullshit. Lots of us do.
But these bullshit arguments work because there is a problem with social media and unsupervised children. An issue that isn’t addressed when all we do is simply point it out that their arguments are bullshit. Because even if the so-called Solutions are bullshit the underlying issue is real. And by not addressing the issue you delegitimize your own arguments. The uneducated will listen to manipulative grifters promising solutions. Simply because they’re offering solutions and you’re not.
But this is indicative of typical leftist infighting. Not taking the time to understand someone’s point or where they’re coming from. But attacking them more on the issue that they didn’t say exactly what you thought they should say. Or use the more radicalizing terms you think should have been used. Meanwhile fascists and their cult mindlessly amplify each other and get things done. Which by the way is not intended as a personal attack. It’s something even I myself am guilty of sometime to time.

Down voting because we agree? Novel. Yes, it’s not about the kids. If it was they’d address it by helping the parents find time and tools to care for their children. Not taking more of everyone else’s time. I agree.

It doesn’t matter where, parents parenting will always have better results than blanket bans.

Tech reporter……. Going back. As in not their first dip. As a tech reporter, they should have known better the first time. That the took a second stab still not knowing. Really makes one question their credentials.
If you’re that base of a user, that you don’t understand that going in. It isn’t a software problem. It’s PEBKAC. And no one should ever recommend a person of that low skill ever try to install on their own. If you want everything to work, buy a system made to run the software. System 76, tuxedo, etc.
Would it be nice if opensouce devs could make some of the most proprietary, custom hardware designed to only work with windows run under Linux? Sure, is it a flaw of Linux that it doesn’t? No. Not unless it’s a flaw of Windows that Microsoft doesn’t support modern apple hardware.

A good story is a good story, whether or not it is a game.A game with good mechanics might be decent, but a game with good mechanics and a good story is elevated beyond its Individual components.

There's no use in reading theory when you refuse to think critically about it. Plus no where in Marx's theory does it call for or justify brutal dictatorial authoritarian regimes. The dictatorship of the proletariat was a philosophical and rhetorical construct.. Not a litteral one. Which makes the tanky squealing of "read the theory" even more hillarious. You're worse than the liberals you hate.

The fact that anyone could think the flavor of authoritarian dick to suck is what matters. Rather than, you know,; admonishing both as they deserve. Never ceases to baffle.
