    Whenever you take away peoples access to information and social groups, you cause them harm.

    Its the same as trying to teach abstinence to children or hiding them from information about drugs. Its better to teach children about sex and drugs so they know what is safe and what is not safe then leaving them in the dark, where they’ll end up doing the unsafe things and learn the hard way

      Beer is nutricious, but that doesn’t mean you should ignore the very damaging effects of alcohol and give it to children. Children should not be on social media unsupervised. Social media isn’t a source of information.
