Don't blame me, I voted for the other guy. (Politics General)

So, the media wants to blame video games for causing mental health problems, but it turns out that social media should be to blame for being the leading cause.
 
So yeah, this article from the CBC talks about why social media the main cause of mental health problems, not video games. This is I say “Social Media was a mistake”.

@ExtreVile  
It does.It unironically does.The Greater Internet Fuckwad theory predate this article

Trump is trying to get a rapper out of prison, in Sweeden.
 
My guess is the rapper did something stupid in that country.

@ExtreVile  
Social media is shit but I don’t think it causes mental illness.

@ExtreVile  
Bad habits definitely but not mental illness

@neutralgrey  
But I still must ask, how come video games gets targeted, but not social media.

@igotnopicks  
He got involved with some afghan thug, problem is that he went too far in beating him up and Sweden isn’t America where Minorities killing each other is looked the other way around

@Background Pony #DAE2  
It affect mental health

@Broken Adam  
Ah so Prison for more than 2 years.
 
He’s doing it for Kanye West.

@Dustcan
 
He can boast all he wants. Even his hands put bound.

So less than a week in prison, Tommy Robinson trying to bully a 70 year old and getting his shit kicked in has to be the highlight of my day  

@newsketches  
lols. Don’t fuck with old guys.

@newsketches
 
@Derpy Whooves  
That idiot should know not to fuck with old people in prison. There’s a reason they survived for that long

@neutralgrey  
There was an attempt… and he failed. Don’t fuck around with the elderly.

Polish cities and provinces declare ‘LGBT-free zones’  

 

@The Smiling Pony  
…so they’re authoritarians? Please explain to me why so many far right wingers who constantly bitch about “Big guberment me no like” worship Poland?

@Background Pony #DAE2  
Nationalism is a thing for many right-wingers. And IIRC, Poland is the epitome of nationalism in Europe.

@Background Pony #DAE2  
Right wingers bitch about “big government” when the government does or allows things they don’t like.

Trump’s attacks on the Squad are still continuing I see.

The line up for the second Democratic debate has been announced.
 
First night has Warren, Sanders, and a bunch of other people nobody cares about. I think Buttigieg is also there? Who cares.
 
Second night has Biden, Harris, and a the rest of the Literally Who gang.
 
I like this. Warren and Sanders has a lot of overlap between them, so having them go head to head will let them differentiate themselves. As it stands Warren looks like the progressive candidate who has a comprehensive plan for everything, while Sanders is the progressive candidate who you know stands for racial and economic equality because unlike the rest of the Johnny Come Lately’s he’s been fighting for his policies for literally decades, even and especially before it was politically convenient (no really, dude was getting handcuffed and arrested alongside black activists during the Civil Rights movements).
 
The only thing I’m looking forward to in the second night is if Harris can destroy Biden again. I really don’t like Harris, but honestly if she can continue to chip away at Biden’s popularity then it’ll be worth it. The sooner Biden’s gone the better.

@Lord Goku  
It’s not even nationalism! They hate everyone in the country that doesn’t 100% agree with them. Look at most of the nationalists who gained power in their countries, they didn’t give a shit about killing their own countrymen

@Background Pony #DAE2  
The love of one’s country is by definition nationalism.

@Lord Goku  
No that’s patriotism  
Nation has a more Ethnic/Cultural Meaning
