  1. That’s the same for every generation, isn’t it? Have you ever heard a boomer recognize a mistake? And I’m not even going to mention GenX as they’re the least relevant generation of all time.
  2. You’re using the Donald Trump’s “strategy of avoiding my question with disdain for the opposite”: do you seriously think a 12 years old (or younger) can be held accountable if you give them a highly addictive, brain-rotting, paranoia machine?
