  • This is not how any of this works, you can’t solve a broken system by attempting to put everyone in jail. Pedophilia is literally a mental condition that these people have little control over. Most of these people need therapy and a decent life not imprisonment!

    Jail is a horrible solution to crime. We need to realise that the majority of crime and discrimination is caused by inequality not ineffective punishment. The only people we should be putting in jail are rich people, they are the cause of most of our problems.

    Also I did know that Australia was in the 5 eyes. But that doesn’t mean we should increase surveillance, we should reduce it.













  • 100% The root cause is addictive algorithms and big tech not giving a shit.

    One could argue that the fediverse such as lemmy can be addictive (I should really be going to bed rn but here I am), but nowhere near to the same extent as something like facebook or instagram which causes people to be so addicted they seperate themselves from society and social relationships, get driven to suicide, participate in excessive buying due to ads etc…


  • Well that’s good to hear that it’s working for some people. It’s strange how some under 16s can still access social media (without using any work arounds like vpns) and others are effectively blocked.

    Make TVs and mobiles.phones so expensive that its out of reach of 9-5s and poor people as they are the majority. Yeah I don’t think this is the solution here.

    Regulate social media so it’s less addictive, or better yet promote a society where accumulation of wealth isn’t the main driver of big decisions. Overall I still believe mobile phones have been overall beneficial to people who have them.
