Government knows best when it comes to minors, right? And all of us need to have our government papers ready if we want to participate in the most important forum of communication of our time. Talk about power imbalance.
> who can’t even articulate the difference between man and woman
Can you articulate that difference? Personally, I'd expect a more complete definition from a kid today than I would from a conservative adult. For example, my dad might refer to DNA when explaining the difference between a man and a woman, and he would also confidently say he's a man (I mean, he is my dad), but since he's never had a DNA test, how can he be sure? It's obviously about more than DNA. My mom might say a woman is someone who can have children, but what about women who cannot have children, are they not women? Etc.

Ahh, you're one of those people. I now can just discount everything you said.
They already do (e.g. gambling), and in my opinion they should. Federal regulation is IMHO desired in cases where there is a huge power imbalance between corporations and consumers to the detriment of the nation. Social media companies wield more power than the average parents can cope with and it’s hugely detrimental to have entire generations of kids growing up being complete useless insecure brainwashed unconfident depressed virgins who can’t even articulate the difference between man and woman. That’s a sick dying society and it’s not good so it makes sense to regulate the thing which is undoubtedly the root cause of it.
