I have the life experience and mental development that enables me to control myself

That's good for you but most adults clearly don't have that either. And as you know we all reap the benefits of others' poor choices. So fuck them? And fuck us all as a society? Fuck anyone over the age of 17?

If you start applying these kinds of restrictions to all adults you end up like the UK and Republican states where you have to pass a job-interview-style screening to open pornhub.com.

I am implying they should be applied unilaterally, not only to adults, and not only to children.

So you are actually, truly, pro-interview-for-porn because some adults have no self control? I think you will find that stance to be wildly unpopular.

That's very clearly not what I said or insinuated in any way.

Sorry, I’m not trying to put words in your mouth. You are saying that all online safety regulations should apply unilaterally to all ages right? Currently porn is banned for anyone under 18, and you want to extend that to everyone, right? Or do you mean something else when you say “apply unilaterally”?

We weren't talking about porn, we were talking about social media...
