Netflix's "The Social Dilemma"

[walrus]

Ha you mentioned what’s app. I’ll tell you why I bought Facebook stock. At one of my past jobs I had the run of the place and as long as things were running right I could pretty much do what I wished. Anyway the breaks were staggered so I’d make my way out to the break room and patio see what everyone was up to. Sometimes we would have a hundred people on break I’d walk around to say high to the people I knew. 80% of the hundred were silent. Full break room dead silence. Everyone was on Facebook. I bought some shares. It’s not like I didn’t know about Facebook I guess I just never saw how engrossed people get into it. (I also looked up the financials and Facebook is stellar on the books, it’s a money printing machine) later I talked to one of the security guards who was into stocks, I told him about my Facebook purchase. He laughed at me and told me “Facebook is yesterday everyone is moving to WhatsApp and Instagram. I said “yeah I know Facebook owns those to” ha ha he went and bought some. Good guy he worked as shift supervisor for security at the place I was (major us company) and during the day worked for the state in the lottery department. I hope he is doing well.


Anyway your comment “why didn’t they mention parental responsibility?” Haven’t you noticed that has been removed from our vernacular? A certain group wishes to destroy the idea of the nuclear family plus the “nuclear family” well some take that as to traditional and it establishes clear gender roles so we can’t really talk about that. The state now handles such matters. They can teach them gender and politics starting at a young age. Not all schools of course, we still hear teachers getting in trouble when they disagree with assigned lesson plans on gender or the destruction of our racist country. So yeah I wasn’t surprised they didn’t mention plus it is very difficult to monitor kids tech use when in many cases the kids are much better than the parents about getting around tech restrictions or at their friends house who’s parents are more lax.

Don't get me started on that. We'll soon enough have the forum police busting through the door.

Yep... that is one of the fast encroaching threats to "parental responsibility." Decisions are being made and taken out of the hands of normal (yes... the "n" word can be used), well-meaning, well-adjusted parents. We're moving in a direction where it will no longer be up to parents to decide what values they want to teach their children. Pretty soon the state, taken over by certain special interest groups with their pushy, insistent, aggressive, and totally weird agenda..... will be telling parents everywhere what is right and wrong and what children need to learn from age 3.
