Technology

banned phones at the dinner table entirely

I would everyone is doing this. Sitting down to eat together once a day and talk isn't something only billionaires can afford.

What, Musks too? He's not known to have much to do with family.

Half an hour per weekday and an hour on weekends with the switch, plus strict rules on what als can be used. No roblox.

But we flood our kids with books or comics. If they want to read a book, well make it happen

Kids are fine with it. Boredom sparks creativity.

Tech lords are among the most hated people on the planet.

"Dad, why people think you're a self absordeb, pathetic, nazi snowflake???"

Yeah because they see us as animals that they can hurt to enrich themselves. They don't give a fuck what the consequences are to your children, that's your problem. Just because they reshape the inescapable environment you raise your kids in, doesn't mean they will ever see themselves as responsible for the effect that has on them, or you.

The mass of humanity needs to accept that private power concentrations are a threat to humanity and take steps to ensure they don't exist. Private interest are hostile to community interests. There is no middle ground with selfishness, it is relentless. The most selfish people will always end up with the power if power is allowed to concentrate. Democracy was literally the remedy for it and we've allowed democracy to be removed from the hands of the many in favour of the few.

Private power and community power can not peacefully coexist.

And finally, Musk, who bought the social media company X, formerly Twitter, in 2022, said it “might’ve been a mistake” to not set any rules on social media for his children.

That would require him to spend more time around his children than photoshoots and using them as human shields

Anti-christ thiel says whayt. Only because the billionaires have gotten thier wealth through unethical means, not including harming other people, of course the wrath will be directed at thier children too, since they benefited from it.

Theil reproduced?

Why do they have kids? Inheritance Tax Now!

the antichrist guy

Lol I've always known this. People are beyond retarded now. Like biggie use to say

" Never get high on your own supply "

Nothing to do with any virtue to be interested in their kid’s mental health and everything to do with avoiding getting blackmail using their kid’s identities

Goddamn, it reproduced already?

How cute. They think the things billionaires say for ammo in the evential lawsuit are actually true.

Of course you do hey do but millions of us keep eating the shit they put in front of us, me included.

My son was never interested in video games, nor does he use any social media. Instead, he reads and watches movies.

He's a film studies student, and knows films inside and out because he's seen almost everything, from every country, from every era. He's also an avid reader of classics, and just finished Moby Dick. It wasn't an assignment, he just wanted to read it.

He wouldn't be that smart if he'd buried himself in video games and social media.

Listen, billionaires suck. But if you think tech giants are hypocritical for strictly rationing screen time to their children then you have lost the plot.

Social media, and screen time in general, are bad for you. Everyone knows this now. If you aren't limiting your child's access, that's on you.

Before a child can get addicted, their parents have to give them access. If you can't live life without looking at a phone, TV, or tablet every free moment, then you're the reason your kids are turning into morons.
