TikTok is digital fentanyl. We should regulate it as such. The way that we are fed information into our brains in 20 years we will look back on and think how did we allow this to happen to our youth? My generation got really lucky because we skipped growing up our entire lives with the ability to non stop self record and screen ourselves. It's the same thing as if I eat only fast food and if I eat only processed things, I shall probably become sick. I think in the future we will look back and think if I consume only negative news, if I consume only trash and nonsensical things, I shall be sick. And I think yes, some social platforms are doing that and you have to fight back aggressively on what you allow into your mind.
