Your saying social media and the internet in general makes this effect worse. I agree it can speed up the messaging but it always starts from those same 4 people. And the same people turning on you because of an online post are the same group who will turn there backs on you for an offline rumor.

In both cases its bullying.

On the other hand the same internet and social media allows you to connect with other kids from outside of your local groups enabling a wider social net.

Kids can talk about other kids when they are not in the room but can't bully them.

That's like saying you can bully Brad Pitt because you and your wife are talking about them.

Those who say how can I tell my child they can't have what others in school have. Then yoi are letting other parents raise your child.

In the future the state will raise children giving all children an equal chance of a good future. Poor children are less likely to get into good schools and careers where rich families can buy a better future.

Think of the children.

The form you use is part of expression.

Engagement maximizing is a buzzword that translates to content people are interested in viewing. Why would you want to regulate content to be uninteresting? I can't see that benefiting anyone.

Currently its not a human right to be able to marry an ai personality or a machine but it will be. 100 years ago it wasn't human right to marry same sex.

Human rights are not fixed in time. We may see privacy rights becoming a human right soon or not depending on how things play out. Should having a dark sky at night be a human right currently we don't think so but that could change.

I'm glad you are disappointed maybe you can set different goals in your life and find some level of happyness.

Probably safer with a stranger considering children attacked by people they know.

People should be more worried at facebook scanning faces and linking photos to real identities.

I think you are fighting a losing battle if you choose to allow your kids to enter society.

In all of your message you assume a Polish person or Englishman or Croats are white. Many people of different color skin have citizenship in Poland or Serbia and that makes them Polish. Your type of tribalism is dangerous and offensive to others.

You may not know this but the natives in North America killed the natives who lived their before white people moved in.

You lost the debate here. People classify themselves in a million ways. But we are talking race. Next you'll say there are no males or females just Croats or Serbs. No blonds or brown haired people just Serbs or Croats. Lol.
