Counterpoint, I clicked on many random links, and saw many things I probably “shouldn’t have” as a kid/teen, still turned out alright I think.
Even on Omegle in particular, after like one day, you gotta expect the dicks and move on lol
I frequented 4chan at age 13-16 so saw pretty much everything one could see on the Internet.
I’m not going to argue it was good or bad, but it’s not like it permanently fucked me up to the point of not being able to function as an adult later in life.
There’s also the privacy vs protection argument here, if sites require verification that you’re over 18 or w/e that then means you have to provide some sort of identification, what happens if that site is hacked? Or bad actors use that information to blackmail you in some fashion.
It’s a hard situation and I don’t know what the right answer truly is.
Hot take, this guy had a great childhood so he expects every single parent to hover over their kids so that they don’t see something they aren’t supposed to. Oh, and if it’s an accident that’s still your failure as a parent.

I guess you were never invited to the lemonparty then.
I don’t follow random links, that’s like common sense.

110th comment in 8 hours.
My man is a machine. I hopped on board at about comment 60 after a pointless argument where he insists tolerant people are bad.
He might be the most prolific troll I’ve personally seen. I just want to see if he burns out

If you didn’t care, would you have responded to that? But do pretend that you don’t. Gotta maintain that infallible facade after all

Man, this is an awful take.

Nice, defend yourself to me. I have no stake in this argument but you still feel compelled to prove yourself.
Fascinating.
