    I like the idea of having a cleaner internet for under 12s but I hate the idea of giving the government more control of the internet. Ultimately I side with freedom. I grew up on the wildwest internet and turned out fine. These kids will also be fine.

        Yup. If the government was concerned, they could educate and empower parents to do this kind of stuff.

      You didn’t turn out fine! You grew into a Freedomist, which puts you at odds with our beloved Safetyism.
