You can have a kid without being a total douchebag.
i feel like this is the right approach if you are concerned about dystopia. bad parenting (screen time for kids) is far worse than crypto or AI. we need to breed scientists and leaders who will address these issues as well as whatever unknown problems the future throws at us.
idiots aren't born. they're grown.

That is your bar for bad parenting? Screen time? Fuck off.

Excessive screen time is bad. Literally the *only* economic use of crypto is crime. Child porn, terrorism, blackmail, ransoms: all transactions are conducted in crypto.
There are still good parents. Lots of them.
All child porn is evil. Every time you trade in crypto, you’re standing beside a river of money flowing from consumers of child porn and developers of it and then sticking your hand in the river, hoping that its level keeps getting higher.

This is the stupidest fucking thunderdome ever.
Nothing good has ever come out of crypto and kids are awesome.
And there is a fucking world between screen time and bad parenting, excess or not. Not optimal, sure, but all of us idiots have grown in front of television.

in terms of massive cultural shifts that are both recent AND pervasive AND seemingly impossible to reverse in the face of techno capitalist business interests….
Yeah.
The comparison to TV is quaint. TV is a shared cultural experience. For all its commercial exploitation, It provided water cooler moments and something to share with family. Doom scrolling while your mom is buying groceries (and doom scrolling too) is the opposite of that.

Can't help you with loneliness, but people still bond over stuff they see online.
Screen time does not equal unregulated doom scrolling. So... Bad parenting is bad parenting and that may be even bigger problem than crypto shit but kids are awesome and easily worth sending every crypto bro to Moon.
I'm about to have a Lu-moment here with you motherfuckers.

for every one kid that learns to read on an iPad there’s 100 watching YouTube videos or worse and getting seduced by AI slop before they have even learned how to hit a baseball or write their name. They get addicted to their phones around the age of 13.
It’s not just bad parenting. At this point it’s negligence.
A Lu moment. Yes I’m having one too!

You do get that there are shades to things? And there are screens and there are screens? Negligence is negligence, for something to be parenting you have to actually be there. I guess we agree on smart phones and social media being the fucking worst, but shades, man, shades.
Also don't body shame kids.

I agree every kid is different. Some will need a hard line & some won’t.
Also don't body shame kids.
for something to be body shaming he had to actually be identified here, or know it’s him.
