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

Unpopular 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
Unpopular OpinionDeadbeats show up late or half ass the job and still keep their spot cause the union backs them. Real hard workers end up carrying the load. Companies get stuck and prices skyrocket for everyday people. Fire the bums and things would run smoother.132

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

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

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. Parents should decide

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