If anything, it would be far better to ban people above a certain age from social media. I’ve seen far more older people get sucked in by online misinformation and become extreme conspiracy theorists than kids.
It's not the government's job to tell adults to not partake in self-harm. Kids don't know better.
But government can take away the means or incentive for self harm. It is just a matter of society agreeing. That will never happen in the USA and Americans are fine. Norway agreed and they are fine.
Right... the land of the free is clearly an example for everyone, the epitome of societal progress.
