- Most college degrees are a scam
Unpopular OpinionSpend four years and pile on debt just to end up in some dead end office or serving coffee. Learn a real trade or run a machine instead. Youre earning decent money by 22 with zero loans hanging over you. Half those degrees teach nothing you can actually use on the job.165 - Should employers have to disclose when AI is tracking your productivity?

- a messy night out beats therapy every timeUnpopular OpinionI'm a bartender, and I see people come in stressed or fake smiling then leave after a few drinks and some bad decisions looking lighter. Sitting in a quiet room talking about your childhood for an hour just keeps you stuck in your head. Go dance, talk shit with strangers, make dumb choices. NOT saying never get help but most folks just need to get out of their apartment and stop treating every feeling like a crisis.13

No imo, but maybe force social media to provide robust parent controls for kids

No. Parents should decide

I get the impulse, but how do you enforce it without making everyone upload an ID? Some don't get an id til 18+, and if not, kids will still lie about their birthday. Instead ban the addictive design tricks.

I'd rather see limits on endless scroll, autoplay, late night notifications and targeted ads to minors. Those rules would be easier to enforce than trying to verify every teenager's identity online. And to do that you basically need to verify every single persons identity.

No blanket ban. For some isolated kids, online communities are one of the few places they can find people who understand them.

No. Kids need gradual access not zero access to full internet mayhem on an arbitrary day.
