Look at the topic we’re in, you absolute pencil. It’s about age restrictions for content. Did you think this was just about banning porn rather than age restricting it?

I pointed out that violent content is already age restricted. You thought that was “moving the goal posts”. You seem like someone that constantly cites things like fallacies that you don’t actually understand, like in this instance, to try and sound smart. Wanna try the slippery slope one next? Maybe chuck a few paradoxes in there for good measure?

I could point out how content on YouTube is absolutely not rated or restricted, or share anecdotes about some of the shocking things that have shown up on the grandkids phones, but none of that matters because it’s clear that you are staunchly authoritarian.

We get it. You get think people shouldn’t be trusted to raise or monitor their own kids and need Big Brother to infringe on the expressive rights of everyone else as a result. That these “liberal perverts” lose what little privacy they have left as a result is the cherry on top, I’m sure. Everyone here knows where you are coming from, what you believe, and what you want. It’s no mystery. There isn’t some mystical angle that we’ve all somehow overlooked. The disconnect is, the things you are trying to argue in favor of are deeply unethical, oppressive, irrational, and evil. Why are you even on Lemmy if you hold such perverse totalitarian fantasies in your heart? The mere existence of this software is a monument against such sick ideology.

  YouTube absolutely has age restricted content, what are you talking about?

  Age-restricted content
  
  Sometimes content doesn’t violate our Community Guidelines, but it may be incompatible with YouTube’s Terms of Service or not appropriate for viewers under 18. In these cases, we may place an age-restriction on the video. This policy applies to videos, video descriptions, custom thumbnails, live streams, and any other YouTube product or feature.
  
  You think I’m authoritarian? You could not be more incorrect if you tried lol. I think parents should be more responsible for the content their kids consume and what they do - but I also believe that age restrictions on content should exist to prevent access when even the best of parents can’t be there to stop it. I’m one of the few people on Lemmy who actually argues FOR free speech and less censorship lol
