  • Point 1 is assumptive, but not necessarily wrong. Social media companies have deep pockets, and these laws help them deflect responsibility for child abuse that occurs on their platforms.

    Point 2 is well argued, but i’m not convinced it applies here. California could have the least harmful version of such a law, but it does not follow that those laws would be adopted more generally over something more harmful. Texas, New York, Illinois, and Florida are also very influential in the US as far as lawmaking goes

    Point 3 is kind of a red herring fallacy.

    Point 4 isn’t really argued at all. I don’t see how this fights fascism or how California’s law is explicitly immune from fascist abuse.

    Point 5 is one that i can’t argue with due to lack of information. I acknowledge that abuse is happening every day on platforms like Roblox and Discord, but i’m not convinced that those platforms will actually have less abuse as a result of this law

    Point 6 is addressing a fallacy. baseline shifting is a contextual phenomenon, and whether it applies here has little to do with the subject being discussed
