On some days I agree with this description. The remedy? 🤨

New York City mayor declares social media an 'environmental toxin'
"We are the first major American city to take this step," the mayor said.

@GottaLaff Social media isn't the toxin, only those like Elon Musk who permit toxic people to pollute it. He knowingly encourages haters who push his far right agenda. Social media is what we make of it, or silently allow others to.

@GottaLaff Social media has its problems, but notice how carefully they don't mention creeping fascism or our ticking climate clock as things that might be having a bigger effect on children's mental health than social media.

@GottaLaff yet he dismantled the DOE dept that was rather successfully promoting digital citizenship by providing resources to teachers. Sigh.

I have no idea how they would control for confounding factors like a hiring freeze that effects every city department except the NYPD or the rest of gestures wildly this.

@GottaLaff Seems rather appropriate today, eh?
I have talked to a few parents of young children and they state that their children are not allowed on soc. media!! I respond with, "ermm school mates?"
They refuse to believe their children might disobey their rules.
<sigh> Have they forgotten their childhood?

@Snowshadow Omg, seriously? Lol. That's ... naive of them.
