No, sorry, it's orthogonal to the poster's comment, which states that, regardless of merit, the purpose of the ban is political. Arguing for or against it is beside the point.

Perhaps the original comment should have been more direct in and just said that Zionists are the ones pushing for these bans. The head of the ADL has made comments about this. A video by Sarah Hurwitz, Obama's speechwriter, went viral recently about how social media needs to be banned for young people because it's hurting the zionist movement.

The head of the ADL is a firehose of stupidity; that does not mean he controls policy. I also reject the pretense that public opinion of Israel would be higher among teens without social media, given their actions over the past few years.

I think this is a bit of a conspiracy colordrops, honestly. It's the same sort of stuff as on Infowars.

[colordrops]

Is that all you got? Ad hominem?

[Sevrene]

No sorry it wasn't a dig at you: the video was posted by someone who appears on Alex Jones' Infowars, talks jewish conspiracies. I just don't take that stuff seriously, doesn't make it wrong and if there's an argument you want to make I'll listen.

That video was literally posted by hundreds of accounts. I just picked the first one I found in search. And exactly how is "Jennine K" anything like Infowars? Did you even bother to look? Do you want me to find the exact same video from a "reputable" account? Can you address the contents of the video? It's direct and unedited, her exact words.

I assume you are a Zionist, based on your rhetorical techniques.

Zionism is when healthy information choices? I don’t trust infowars, sorry but that’s served me quite well over the years.

I did look, you’re being obtuse again, after all how else would I know it’s from an infowars adjacent account.

You strike me as the type of person who thinks e-safety commissioner is CIA, they also call me a zionist for doubting that- it’s the goto ad hominem for people embroiled with I/P conflict.

This sort of social media bs and the way it affects political discourse is why social media is so damaging, much of it is just political propaganda.

Tell me what do you take from the clip?

[colordrops]

You are completely untrustworthy. You clearly have an agenda. Nothing I posted has anything to do with Infowars, so you multiple attempts to slander me expose that you are purely agenda driven. This thread is over.
