Now platforms have to figure out how to enforce it.

    A social safety net you say… like a place we could gather all the children to teach them things and let them play under supervision?

        What? No! They can have their own age appropriate place to learn and play under supervision.

            But what about those Parental Responsibilities you were talking about earlier? Are you saying we now need extra social safety nets for kids who don’t fit the mold and get bullied? Extra places for them to learn and play under supervision? Because I don’t think that’s going to be economical without boarding them there, away from their parents.

                So you do want a nanny state.

                    Funny, conservatives would absolutely include telling parents how to raise their kids in the definition of a Nanny State.
