We're not helping young people by telling them they're powerless against phones & algorithms, or enabling this idea that, yes, everything that's hard now is hard because of technology reason.com/2025/07/30/g...

Remember that one SNL sketch where Eddie Murphy wakes up as a white man and starts breaking all sorts of laws and nobody stops him? That's kinda what the federal government is like right now.
