1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:07,320 Speaker 1: Good morning Cooner country. Okay, my friends, it's one of 2 00:00:07,360 --> 00:00:11,200 Speaker 1: the biggest cultural stories, not just in the United States, frankly, 3 00:00:11,800 --> 00:00:17,080 Speaker 1: but in the world. Why on Wednesday, just two days ago, 4 00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:23,920 Speaker 1: Australia now effectively has begun the first of its kind 5 00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:29,920 Speaker 1: in the entire world, a ban on those under sixteen 6 00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:34,400 Speaker 1: years old, tweens, teens, children, however you want to define them. 7 00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:41,480 Speaker 1: Anyone under sixteen is now banned from using social media, 8 00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:46,720 Speaker 1: and in particular they are banned from being on ten 9 00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:54,720 Speaker 1: of the biggest social media platforms, Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, Reddit, 10 00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:57,960 Speaker 1: something called kick which I have no idea what it 11 00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:04,520 Speaker 1: is Tube, and of course x or formerly Twitter. It 12 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:09,640 Speaker 1: is a comprehensive ban, they It is now being implemented 13 00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:16,520 Speaker 1: as I speak. Hundreds and hundreds of thousands of twelve, thirteen, fourteen, 14 00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:24,160 Speaker 1: fifteen year olds are seeing their accounts deactivated, deleted from 15 00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:29,480 Speaker 1: all of these social media platforms. And according to the 16 00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:34,280 Speaker 1: Prime Minister of Australia, and the law apparently has strong 17 00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:37,680 Speaker 1: backing in the Parliament they passed it and so far 18 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:43,280 Speaker 1: very strong backing from parents and from children's rights advocates. 19 00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 1: They say it is necessary, it is necessary to stop 20 00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:55,480 Speaker 1: the assault on our kids' mental health, to stop this sewage, 21 00:01:56,120 --> 00:02:00,920 Speaker 1: this toxic pollution that they say is real wiring the 22 00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:05,600 Speaker 1: brains of our kids and doing tremendous damage and ruining 23 00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:09,680 Speaker 1: their childhood. As the Prime Minister said a couple days 24 00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:15,040 Speaker 1: ago in Australia, read a book that's been sitting on 25 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:19,800 Speaker 1: that shelf for a while, Learn a new sport, learn 26 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:25,160 Speaker 1: a new instrument, try to make some real friends, go outdoors, 27 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:31,160 Speaker 1: enjoy nature, take a hike. In other words, start living 28 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:36,359 Speaker 1: like a child again. Now the reason why many of 29 00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:42,520 Speaker 1: you probably asking jehheff jeehef Jeff okay ay, if Australia 30 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:45,959 Speaker 1: wants to pass the first ever of its kind, first 31 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 1: in the world, sweeping media a band forgive me on 32 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:53,720 Speaker 1: social media? Social media band? What does this have to 33 00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 1: do with us? A in koner country and be obviously 34 00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:05,480 Speaker 1: in America. Many countries, including here, now are on the 35 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 1: path to emulating what Australia has just done. Denmark now 36 00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:14,400 Speaker 1: has come out and said within a couple of months 37 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:19,160 Speaker 1: they will have a similar law, Norway a similar law. 38 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:23,679 Speaker 1: The European Union as a whole now says they are 39 00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:28,880 Speaker 1: seriously looking at copying and following the in the lead 40 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 1: of Australia's footsteps. Malaysia now says they will do the 41 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 1: exact same thing. New Zealand is going to do the 42 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:42,760 Speaker 1: exact same thing. And in Congress there were recent hearings 43 00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 1: and now many Republicans and Democrats there is a bipartisan 44 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:56,400 Speaker 1: coalition forming where they're both saying we need to reign 45 00:03:56,480 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 1: in children's access to social media platforms, and they like 46 00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:09,080 Speaker 1: this band. In Australia, if you're under sixteen, fifteen years old, 47 00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:13,120 Speaker 1: eleven months, in whatever, twenty nine days or whatever it is, 48 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 1: you will not be allowed to access most social media platforms, 49 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:25,280 Speaker 1: especially the biggest ones that I just mentioned, from YouTube 50 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:31,680 Speaker 1: to TikTok, to Instagram, to Snapchat, to x to Reddit 51 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 1: to you name it, across the entire Facebook, all across 52 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:42,680 Speaker 1: the board. Now, the argument for doing this, and the 53 00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 1: reason why many many people want to copy it is 54 00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:54,480 Speaker 1: that they say social media has been incredibly destructive and 55 00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:58,839 Speaker 1: they cite just several statistics. Number one and I was 56 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:03,520 Speaker 1: surprised at this. This is a Gallop survey by Gallop 57 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:08,839 Speaker 1: in which even a majority of young people, those sixteen 58 00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:12,919 Speaker 1: and under, say that they find social media to be 59 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:17,919 Speaker 1: highly destructive, that they themselves would like to see some 60 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 1: kind of you know, either a full out ban or 61 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 1: at least more severe restrictions. That it leads to loneliness, 62 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:31,479 Speaker 1: it leads to depression, it leads to cyber bullying, it 63 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:37,240 Speaker 1: leads to suicides, it leads to, according to statistic after statistic, 64 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:42,920 Speaker 1: children being exposed to some of the most grossest, vile, 65 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:49,800 Speaker 1: graphic content imaginable. As one teenager said, I went to 66 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:53,520 Speaker 1: school and there was a person who had been shot 67 00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:57,680 Speaker 1: somewhere whatever it was, somewhere on social media, and it 68 00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 1: was all over our apps. And I literally saw a 69 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:05,080 Speaker 1: man being shot to death on my phone. And it 70 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:09,480 Speaker 1: wasn't even the first class yet. And so there's a 71 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:13,480 Speaker 1: a never mind the proliferation of pornography, and on and 72 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 1: on it goes. So many children say they would like 73 00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:22,640 Speaker 1: to see some restrictions, if not a ban. It's also 74 00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 1: now shown and proven to be extremely highly addictive, to 75 00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:32,560 Speaker 1: the point that I get this can't be true. But 76 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:36,360 Speaker 1: then pure research says they got the same numbers. Gallup 77 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:40,320 Speaker 1: says they got the same numbers. Polling firm after polling firm. 78 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:43,600 Speaker 1: So listen to this, and this is not unique to 79 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:49,280 Speaker 1: the United States. These numbers are very similar in Canada, Australia, 80 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:54,600 Speaker 1: New Zealand, all across Europe. In many places around the world, 81 00:06:54,760 --> 00:07:02,120 Speaker 1: especially the developed world, thirteen year olds will spend on 82 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:09,080 Speaker 1: average four point four hours a day, not a week 83 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:17,119 Speaker 1: a day, just scrolling and being on social media. Once 84 00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:23,200 Speaker 1: they get to seventeen, it is then five point eight 85 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:28,680 Speaker 1: hours a day. Let's not quibble. That's almost six hours 86 00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:37,360 Speaker 1: six hours a day on social media. I mean they're 87 00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:41,440 Speaker 1: spending all their time in front of a screen. And 88 00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:48,680 Speaker 1: many experts, many psychologists as a psychiatrists, many health experts 89 00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:54,440 Speaker 1: are saying this is the first generation that literally has 90 00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:59,760 Speaker 1: been grown up, has been raised with four five six 91 00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 1: every day of non stop consumption of the social media 92 00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:10,840 Speaker 1: apps and the social media platforms. That it is doing 93 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:16,720 Speaker 1: something to their brain, that they are being rewired disrupted, 94 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:21,480 Speaker 1: and that they are now seeing sky high reports and 95 00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:28,840 Speaker 1: incidences and cases of depression, of suicide, of loneliness, of 96 00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:33,240 Speaker 1: all kinds of body issues where girls think they're very ugly, 97 00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:36,080 Speaker 1: or they're too thin, or they're too fat, when there's 98 00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:39,720 Speaker 1: nothing wrong with them. It just they go. It has 99 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:44,880 Speaker 1: opened up a Pandora's box. Never mind the vile hatred 100 00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:51,600 Speaker 1: the vile hate that you see on social media all 101 00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:56,320 Speaker 1: the time, and it is tearing communities and people apart. 102 00:08:56,920 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 1: So let me just say this. It's very clear. I 103 00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:05,600 Speaker 1: very much restrict and limit the use of my two 104 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:09,800 Speaker 1: children and what they can watch on social media and 105 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 1: what apps are even alloweder platforms to be on. They're 106 00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:16,840 Speaker 1: not allowed to be on TikTok, it's garbage. They're not 107 00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:18,760 Speaker 1: allowed to be on many things they're not allowed to 108 00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:22,840 Speaker 1: be on, and we give them a timer in which 109 00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:25,560 Speaker 1: they can only be on for one hour a day. 110 00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 1: That's it. That's it. They each have a phone that's 111 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:33,320 Speaker 1: for an emergency to call mommy or daddy if they want. 112 00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:36,400 Speaker 1: They can speak to their friends, but that's for them 113 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:38,880 Speaker 1: to have in case God forbid they need to reach us. 114 00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 1: And they have a one hour timer and only on 115 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 1: certain media platforms, and we are constantly monitoring them. Now. 116 00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:52,720 Speaker 1: I know this ban is popular, and obviously we can 117 00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:58,360 Speaker 1: agree to disagree, but I'm against this band and I 118 00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 1: don't want it here in America. And I'll tell you why. 119 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:06,959 Speaker 1: I don't want Big Brother regulating speech. I don't want 120 00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 1: Big Brother telling kids and even parents what their children 121 00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 1: can watch and not watch. What they can do and 122 00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:22,680 Speaker 1: not do to me. This is a freedom of speech issue. 123 00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:27,360 Speaker 1: I don't want the government regulating what my children or 124 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 1: what I tell my children they can watch or not 125 00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:35,800 Speaker 1: watch on social media. And on top of all of this, 126 00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 1: whatever happened to parental authority. To me, it is not 127 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:45,000 Speaker 1: the job of the state. And I'm sympathetic to the arguments. 128 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:47,680 Speaker 1: I do think social media on the whole is very 129 00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:51,640 Speaker 1: bad for kids. There's no disagreement there. But that's my 130 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:55,600 Speaker 1: job as the father. That's Grace's job as the mother. 131 00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:59,560 Speaker 1: Six one seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight 132 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:05,080 Speaker 1: is the number. Okay, everywhere this every time this issue 133 00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:09,080 Speaker 1: is raised, it is. It's almost a fifty to fifty issue. 134 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 1: People feel very strongly about it on both sides. Just 135 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:15,080 Speaker 1: so that you know, my wife is completely in favor 136 00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:19,679 Speaker 1: of this ban. Grace loves it. Grace wants the United 137 00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:23,320 Speaker 1: States to follow in Australia's leads. She wants to emulate 138 00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 1: something similar here. I don't, obviously, but the audience very 139 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:32,200 Speaker 1: split already, and we're just barely into the show today. 140 00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:36,520 Speaker 1: Six one seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight. Okay, 141 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:40,079 Speaker 1: let me ask all of you because Australia has now 142 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:43,160 Speaker 1: done it, and many other countries are saying they're going 143 00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:46,920 Speaker 1: to follow, including here in the United States. And this 144 00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:53,200 Speaker 1: is very rare. You've got many Republicans, many Democrats coming 145 00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:58,600 Speaker 1: together bipartisan saying we need to ban social media for 146 00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:02,840 Speaker 1: those under the age of sixteen. Now, funny enough, there's 147 00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:08,240 Speaker 1: also Republicans and Democrats coming together to oppose so. And 148 00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:12,440 Speaker 1: basically the fault line, not to oversimplify it, but it's 149 00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:18,640 Speaker 1: the free speech advocates on the one hand versus the 150 00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:23,600 Speaker 1: parental rights in a sense advocates on the other. Parents 151 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:28,240 Speaker 1: say they're overwhelmed they can't monitor their children twenty four 152 00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 1: hours a day, seven days a week. That these big 153 00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:36,680 Speaker 1: tech social media giants are you know, they're rigging these 154 00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:41,599 Speaker 1: social media platforms to make them as addictive as possible 155 00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:45,480 Speaker 1: to these kids. There is tremendous peer pressure at school. 156 00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 1: Everybody's got to be on social media, and so there's 157 00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:58,120 Speaker 1: just too much. The social pressure, the peer pressure, the 158 00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 1: temptations are just too great, and so their kids are 159 00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:06,400 Speaker 1: on it. They don't know what to do. They're at 160 00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:10,920 Speaker 1: their wits end. It is ubiquitous. It is everywhere, and 161 00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:15,880 Speaker 1: they say it is toxic garbage. That ninety nine percent 162 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:19,800 Speaker 1: of what these kids are watching on social media is 163 00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:28,920 Speaker 1: garbage for their brain. It's causing mental health problems, depression, suicide, cyberbullying, 164 00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 1: and even worse worse. You now have ten year olds 165 00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:39,560 Speaker 1: being introduced to pornography and it's now this is the 166 00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 1: gen Z is the first generation in history in which 167 00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:47,480 Speaker 1: they have been consuming porn since the age of ten, 168 00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:51,520 Speaker 1: eleven or twelve, and they're saying it is having tremendous 169 00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:56,200 Speaker 1: effects on their ability to socialize, to be intimate, to 170 00:13:56,280 --> 00:14:00,120 Speaker 1: get married, to have relationships, to have children. So what 171 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:03,600 Speaker 1: they're saying is it's like giving your child a loaded gun. 172 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:08,840 Speaker 1: This is the argument many are making. Others, frankly, that's 173 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:12,680 Speaker 1: more my side are not saying you're wrong. Most of 174 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:16,840 Speaker 1: the criticisms are right. But that's not for the government 175 00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:21,520 Speaker 1: to decide. That's for the parents to parent their children, 176 00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:25,240 Speaker 1: to take control of those devices. Don't give your child 177 00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:28,280 Speaker 1: the phone or do what Grace and I do, which 178 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:31,720 Speaker 1: is limit their time on it and monitor them. But 179 00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:34,520 Speaker 1: that this should be up to the parents. This is 180 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:40,440 Speaker 1: about parental control, parental authority, and ultimately freedom of speech. 181 00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:46,120 Speaker 1: Because I am convinced that if they can start regulating speech, 182 00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:48,920 Speaker 1: and this is what this is, it's regulating speech and 183 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:54,920 Speaker 1: expression to those under sixteen. It's only opening the door 184 00:14:55,320 --> 00:15:00,640 Speaker 1: to regulate more speech. Already they're going after they're X 185 00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:05,560 Speaker 1: and Twitter. The European Union wants more censorship. They're censoring 186 00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:09,560 Speaker 1: people at home. They're sending putting adults even now in 187 00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:13,080 Speaker 1: jail for what they say on social media. So to me, 188 00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:17,320 Speaker 1: what they really want this is the end goal. They 189 00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:22,560 Speaker 1: want what's called a universal digital ID. That's the endgame 190 00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:28,280 Speaker 1: where everybody now must be forced to register in order 191 00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:32,160 Speaker 1: to use any kind of social media. I use X, 192 00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:36,160 Speaker 1: I do sometimes Facebook, but I primarily get my messages 193 00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:40,160 Speaker 1: out on X. It's gonna come to the point that 194 00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:45,120 Speaker 1: they're gonna want my name, my address, all of my information, 195 00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:48,240 Speaker 1: and then I can and then only by using a 196 00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:53,120 Speaker 1: universal digital ID. They can track me. They can track 197 00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:56,400 Speaker 1: what I buy, they can track where I go, they 198 00:15:56,400 --> 00:16:00,280 Speaker 1: can track what I'm looking at or reading on social media. 199 00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 1: To me, they are opening the door for a massive 200 00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:09,080 Speaker 1: censorship regime. And this is part of the trojan horse 201 00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:14,640 Speaker 1: to do that. It's never about the children. They always 202 00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:21,080 Speaker 1: use the children as the excuse. But it's never about 203 00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:25,760 Speaker 1: the children. You think politicians give a damn about our kids. 204 00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:32,200 Speaker 1: They don't. It's always about more power and more control. 205 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:34,600 Speaker 1: And that's why Grace and I had a very good 206 00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:38,120 Speaker 1: discussion last night. And as she says, no, I'm telling you, 207 00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:40,400 Speaker 1: you don't know how bad it is, Jeff, it's a cesspool. 208 00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:44,320 Speaker 1: I monitor the kids, which is true. I monitor their 209 00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:47,520 Speaker 1: social media more than you do. You have no idea 210 00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:50,360 Speaker 1: what's out there. You have no idea how dark and 211 00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:54,920 Speaker 1: satanic and evil it is and the effects it's having. 212 00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 1: These big tech companies don't give a damn about our kids. 213 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:05,639 Speaker 1: And as she put it, it's almost like cocaine for 214 00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:09,639 Speaker 1: the brain. That's what much of this is. Cocaine for 215 00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:14,240 Speaker 1: the brain. So I said, look, I hear you. That's 216 00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:16,960 Speaker 1: why I want to monitor and limit the kids's time. 217 00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:20,560 Speaker 1: I just don't want big brother to do it. And 218 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:24,040 Speaker 1: if I can be confessional again, if I can be 219 00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:27,199 Speaker 1: as honest with you like I'm in the confessional, I 220 00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:31,760 Speaker 1: have two great regrets in my life, true honestly like 221 00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:37,480 Speaker 1: policy political regrets. One that I supported the Iraq War. 222 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:40,440 Speaker 1: I think now it's obvious it was a big mistake. 223 00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:44,760 Speaker 1: And I've tried to make amends for that, and I've 224 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:49,359 Speaker 1: rechanged my thinking. And the second big regret is my 225 00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:54,240 Speaker 1: support for the Patriot Act, because that clearly was a 226 00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:58,280 Speaker 1: a massive violation of civil liberties. But you see, I 227 00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:01,960 Speaker 1: believed the intent of what the politicians were telling us. 228 00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:06,400 Speaker 1: Six one seven two six, six sixty eight sixty eight 229 00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:11,720 Speaker 1: is the number, Okay, should we have a social media 230 00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:15,720 Speaker 1: ban for those under sixteen here in the United States 231 00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:18,879 Speaker 1: as they currently now have the first of its kind 232 00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:24,440 Speaker 1: in Australia. There are now lawmakers, both parties coming together. 233 00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:28,520 Speaker 1: They're going to try to pass something next year and 234 00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:30,719 Speaker 1: we'll see what happens. But there is a lot of 235 00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:34,520 Speaker 1: support for this here in the United States. This idea 236 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:38,879 Speaker 1: already it's almost like wildfire. Denmark now is going to 237 00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:43,359 Speaker 1: pass a very similar law. Norway, the European Union as 238 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:45,560 Speaker 1: a whole is now saying they're going to look into it. 239 00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:48,520 Speaker 1: New Zealand is going to pass it, Malaysia is going 240 00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:51,480 Speaker 1: to pass it. You could see many countries in the 241 00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:55,119 Speaker 1: next six months pass a law very similar now to 242 00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:59,320 Speaker 1: what just passed in Australia. Six one seven two six 243 00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:06,240 Speaker 1: six sixty eight sixty eight Okay, this is Mark on messenger. Jeff. 244 00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:11,760 Speaker 1: You have to be eighteen to vote, twenty one to drink, 245 00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:17,600 Speaker 1: eighteen to join the military, eighteen to get married in 246 00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:21,320 Speaker 1: some states, twenty one in other states. You need to 247 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:25,440 Speaker 1: be seventeen to get a driver's license. So I agree, 248 00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:29,920 Speaker 1: if you're under eighteen, you should not be on social 249 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:36,560 Speaker 1: media because it's brainwashing kids and making them stupid. By 250 00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:38,879 Speaker 1: the way, Grace agrees with you, Mark. That was one 251 00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:41,160 Speaker 1: of the big arguments she was making with me yesterday. 252 00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:44,000 Speaker 1: She goes, you want to talk about the dumbing down 253 00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:48,720 Speaker 1: of America? She goes, My god, it's she'd throw not 254 00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:53,200 Speaker 1: just the schools, she said, social media, huge reason. But anyway, 255 00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:57,840 Speaker 1: let that go. Mark continues, And COVID had a lot 256 00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:00,639 Speaker 1: to do with this, Jeff, by clo using all of 257 00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:04,840 Speaker 1: the schools, keeping these kids stuck in the house, and 258 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:08,560 Speaker 1: all they did was watch social media. Although I do 259 00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:13,840 Speaker 1: somewhat agree with you, Jeff about parents parental control, parental supervision, 260 00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:17,960 Speaker 1: but parents can't watch their kids twenty four hours a day, 261 00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:21,119 Speaker 1: seven days a week. They just can't do it, Jeff. 262 00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:25,800 Speaker 1: And quite frankly, Jeff, many kids today can't give our 263 00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 1: rats behind what their parents say. 264 00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:30,960 Speaker 2: So. 265 00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:34,040 Speaker 1: Basically, Mark is saying it's a good idea, let's have 266 00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:39,000 Speaker 1: it here. It's just we need it genuinely to protect 267 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:45,560 Speaker 1: our children. Agree, disagree. This is from Brian on Messenger. 268 00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:50,640 Speaker 1: He's got a bit of a different point of view. Jeef, Jeef, Jeff. 269 00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:55,399 Speaker 1: Democrats can't tell me what a woman is. I'm gonna 270 00:20:55,440 --> 00:21:01,520 Speaker 1: trust their opinions on what's best for my child. Hell oh, Brian, 271 00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:05,600 Speaker 1: I'm with you, brother, I'm with you, my friend. Okay, 272 00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:07,840 Speaker 1: one more and then we're gonna go to the phone 273 00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:12,160 Speaker 1: lines six one seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight. 274 00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:18,159 Speaker 1: Larry on Messenger, Good morning, Jeff. I mean, you know 275 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:22,320 Speaker 1: this has worked great on preventing teens from drinking, smoking, 276 00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:28,760 Speaker 1: and trying drugs. I mean you know, you know they 277 00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:31,560 Speaker 1: all listen to that. You know, you can't drink before 278 00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:38,880 Speaker 1: you're twenty one, don't do drugs, you know. So that's 279 00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:41,960 Speaker 1: another argument many are making, even frankly, many of the 280 00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:45,520 Speaker 1: teenagers are making. They're like, you think we're gonna abide 281 00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:48,760 Speaker 1: by this band, You think we're actually gonna give you 282 00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:51,760 Speaker 1: our honest age when you want us to sign up 283 00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:54,920 Speaker 1: now to see if we're eligible to be on these 284 00:21:54,920 --> 00:22:01,480 Speaker 1: social media platforms. We're gonna lie, so we're just gonna 285 00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:04,719 Speaker 1: get around it. You're not going to stop us. So 286 00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:08,919 Speaker 1: that's one of the arguments they make. One of the 287 00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 1: problems I think, okay, just leave aside the issue for 288 00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:17,120 Speaker 1: a second. Whether you're for or against, is that in 289 00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:22,400 Speaker 1: this law. Say the children lie. Okay, they say they're sixteen, 290 00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:25,719 Speaker 1: it's under sixteen. So say you claim you're sixteen when 291 00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:30,400 Speaker 1: you're really thirteen, fourteen, or fifteen. The child doesn't get punished. 292 00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:36,800 Speaker 1: There's no fine, you know, there's no punishment the parents. 293 00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:41,119 Speaker 1: And that's another problem. The parents can say, you'll just 294 00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:44,159 Speaker 1: sign up for an account. You know, I'm Jeff Coooner, 295 00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:46,679 Speaker 1: fifty six years old, blah blah blah, give all my 296 00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:51,040 Speaker 1: information and then just give the pass code to Ashton 297 00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:55,000 Speaker 1: and Ava and say, okay, guys here have fun. Do 298 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:59,560 Speaker 1: me alone. I'm working. Go ahead, social media away, go, 299 00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:03,560 Speaker 1: you know, go wrot your brain on TikTok or whatever. 300 00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:09,160 Speaker 1: Go leave that alone. So if the parents break the law, 301 00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:13,960 Speaker 1: or if the children break the law, there's no consequences 302 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:18,000 Speaker 1: or punishment or fines for them. The only ones that 303 00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:23,479 Speaker 1: will get fined are the social media platforms, and the 304 00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:27,880 Speaker 1: fine is as much as fifty million Australian dollars, which 305 00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:35,160 Speaker 1: is about thirty three million US. So the social media companies, 306 00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:39,479 Speaker 1: if they're not deactivating these accounts, or if they're not 307 00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:44,000 Speaker 1: aggressive enough in trying to prevent young people from signing 308 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:47,040 Speaker 1: up and getting onto these accounts and onto these social 309 00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:51,280 Speaker 1: media platforms, these companies are going to be fined and 310 00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:56,239 Speaker 1: fined and fined. But nothing happens to the parents and 311 00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:59,520 Speaker 1: to the kids. Well, I mean, I'm not here to 312 00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:03,720 Speaker 1: defend attack, but that doesn't seem right to me either. 313 00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:09,199 Speaker 1: If the law is the law, the owners shouldn't just 314 00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:12,760 Speaker 1: be on the companies and on the social media giants. 315 00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:15,920 Speaker 1: It should be on the parents and the kids as well. 316 00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:19,800 Speaker 1: Am I wrong? I'm just throwing that out there. Six 317 00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:24,399 Speaker 1: one seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight. Okay, 318 00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:31,520 Speaker 1: let me ask you double barrel question. Do you think 319 00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:38,480 Speaker 1: we should ban social media for children under the age 320 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:43,600 Speaker 1: of sixteen? Do you support this kind of a ban? 321 00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:51,680 Speaker 1: That's number one? Number two? What has been your experience 322 00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:57,880 Speaker 1: with social media or your kids' experience with social media? 323 00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:03,200 Speaker 1: Has it had horrible effects? What you're seeing now? There 324 00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:07,800 Speaker 1: was just horrifying testimony, just a couple of days ago 325 00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:15,080 Speaker 1: up on Capitol Hill. What the way certain groups online 326 00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:23,320 Speaker 1: are taking advantage of children, underage children, and they're being victimized, 327 00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:28,600 Speaker 1: they're being sextwarded. One for example, they there's one group 328 00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:33,600 Speaker 1: called seven six', four the seven six'.
