Why is US hell bent on a private capitalist free opinion sharing platform like Tiktok? What happened to their mantra of so-called free spirit of capitalism and freedom of expression that they have been preaching to the rest of the world for decades?

I’m with Florida’s De Santis on this. Limiting this crap’s effect on young minds and protecting kids from predator adults pretending to be kids is a laudable goal.

It’s illustrative that TikTok in China is not TikTok in America. China TikTok is focused on molding young minds into being good students and good citizens. China obviously recognizes the brain melt that occurs with the version fed to American kids.

There are laws in the US against selling alcohol or cigarettes to kids. Also laws against sex with minors.

China has long banned Facebook and Snapchat.

As to the question, after witnessing the inability of my 10 year old niece to get off TikTok, while casually seeing some of what is on her screen, I’m good with the bill that Biden just signed. And I’m good with Florida’s new policy and watching to see how it will be implemented.

The problem with the additive algorithms in TikTok, Instagram, Snapchat and others is that it’s becoming increasingly more apparent how harmful these social media sites are for kids and very young teens.

Not crazy with the ability of kids to get easy porn on their phones either.

Russia would not be permitted to purchase and own the New York Times or CNN. Iran would not be able to purchase the Los Angeles Times. America has global adversaries.

Freedom of expression stops at the point where it collides with public safety. And also with national security.

Hello, I have a question about astral projection. I started to get interested in this a little while after my mum passed in april. I thought I may be able to see her and speak with her if I managed to achieve astral projection. Since this interest, every time i sleep on my back I go into sleep paralysis. However, I cant progress into astral projection because it is very scary for me as I feel like I'm suffocating when this happens. I panic and force myself to wake up. This only ever happened about once a year before this. It sometimes lasts a long time. This has happened about 3 times per week since my mum died, as mentioned on a previous post. I no longer try to go into it anymore(due to the suffocating feeling), but it still happens. I read that sleep paralysis is the pathway to astral projection. Why has this started to happen so frequently since simply taking an interest in it? Is this connected to the afterlife? I am concerned about it as I now cannot seem to stop this happening. Could it be my mum trying to communicate? Im asking due to more knowledge around this in this group.
