  No, they’re trying to control everyone. This is so they can more easily track absolutely everyone

    They’re trying to do both, they’re starting with children because they believe that they should have the right to control everyone’s children and they’re using it as a wedge issue to oppress everyone else. Fascists always start with the people with the fewest rights

      I don’t think you get it. If you verify your age you’re identifying yourself. They aren’t “starting with children.” They’re only using children as an excuse to identify everyone. It isn’t about getting children off of these sites. It’s about tracking anybody online.
