I started elementary as a high school student. When we were building the first versions of our desktop environment, one of our core developers was in high school and his parents accompanied him to the Ubuntu Developer Summit. How many things we have today wouldn’t exist if young people weren’t allowed to participate? The cost of not creating spaces that we can safely share with young people is too high
@danirabbit agree agree agree

@danirabbit “I stared a company that created an operating system while still in high school” may be one of the coolest and simultaneously hottest things I’ve ever read. You’re like Kim Possible.
@FinalGirl haha okay to be fair we bootstrapped for several years. I didn’t get to work on it full time until I was like 25

Also don't learn about racism, sexism, global warming or activism.
I think a big reason for the push to erase kids is Gretta Thunbergs activism because it threatened the oil industry
"The most common theme in the banned non-fiction books was activism and social movements."

I mean peter theil was trying to argue Thunberg is the anti-christ.
So it's pretty clear she's deeply annoyed the rich.

@danirabbit lock them in the closet until they're 18 (?)

@danirabbit strictly speaking social media: the rates of depression are also way up there now because of tweens getting jedi mind fucked into algorithmic induced insanity. intoxicating algorithms should perhaps be outlawed and client sided filters be made stronger and more obvious -

@danirabbit you did that in high school. I was playing DnD and drinking enough to destroy my liver.

@danirabbit I remember seeing young people at both MozFest and contributing to various parts of Firefox and Thunderbird.
They are valued for what they could do, the perspectives that they had (and led others to) and the continuity it offers a project.
What OpenSUSE is doing is really not smart on many levels. Lets hope it is not a precedent.

@alienghic @Mimesatwork @danirabbit Very much so. Before the last assassination market (in Germany) got taken down earlier this year, she had a decent price on her head (about 11.8 BTC).

@FinalGirl yeah I didn’t really start partying and drinking until I was like 22/23? I was extremely straight laced until me and my big ex broke up. I was installing Gentoo on the computer in the back of my business finance class as a senior, which I’m sure the IT department loved

@drwho @alienghic @danirabbit What a colossal waste of time and energy to be this pressed of people, one person in particular, wanting a better world for everyone.
Imagine all the things that energy and money could do for the world

@danirabbit Meanwhile I sat in a park the morning of my final exams and drank half a bottle of vodka. I literally fell into my teachers desk when I walked into the classroom so drunk In could barely see. I don’t know how I’m still here.

We’ve pushed young people completely out of our public physical spaces and now they’re getting pushed out of our digital spaces as well. Where are they supposed to go?
@danirabbit who is »we« supposed to be?

@danirabbit the unpopular observation is that we used to have lots of spaces and it was for everyone’s wellbeing. There was never a universal space and trying to do that is causing a lot of the problems.

@Mimesatwork @alienghic @danirabbit The number of people who truly, deeply do not want a better world is distressing. And they're all-in on making sure that doesn't happen.

@danirabbit I understand and agree with you but I was really confused at first as I read it "I started elementary school as a high school student". My mind went immediately to a Billy Madison situation...

@alienghic @Mimesatwork @danirabbit Yes. Killing all of us is acceptable to them.
