If social isolation were a real concern for people they would get off their damn phones and drastically reduce their access to social media. Blaming this entirely on the pandemic is sorely misplaced and not a solution.

And do what instead, meet in person?
Be a damn parent and limit your child's access to screens generally and social media specifically.
And therefore, all social interaction that's left.
That’s not real social interaction so I don’t see your point.
I agree, it isn't. But since real social interaction is currently not available in too many cases, limiting children's access to the closest substitute is not a good idea.
