Social media is definitely very toxic. The best evidence is the rise in misogyny and homophobia in the last few years and how social media has made so many people doubt basic biology and science.
- mixmastamyk 3y ago> the rise in misogyny and homophobia As someone who did battle online with 12-yo boys in the 90s, there's no "rise". Just kids and other immatures being trolls on purpose. Best not to let it bother you. It isn't real for the most part and most will outgrow it. Sounds like another good reason to keep minors offline until they mature a little.
- marcod 3y agoThere is a big difference if it's immature kids and a few trolls vs elected officials legitimizing this toxic shit. Another thing that contributes to the rise is traditional and social media, amplifying the controversies.
- CatWChainsaw 3y agoIt seems like those preteens from the 90s grew up into people getting high on their own supply. I'm not even sure why Floridians are trying to ban Arthur's Birthday from school libraries but here we are.
