    Silencing children only makes them more exploitable and endangered. It is wrong to be passing these bills. Children are people too, and sometimes the only recourse they have to a bad home situation is asking for help online. Everyone in support of this because kids “annoy you” needs to grow up themselves.

    Want to police kids on the internet? That should stay firmly in the territory of mom and dad. Republicans just want to shut down kids’ ability to organize, ask for help, and escape brainwashing.

    I can’t remember if this is the right video. Andrewism once said children need a new bill of rights. More than anything, the fascist attempts to silence youth online are convincing me he’s right. https://youtu.be/nuBDcpW9S_I?si=Cmsouya9oKlqBRWo
