Because tiktok is the only social platform that exists. Because libraries don't exist. Because teens never go to the movie theater like their parents did.

My sibling in Christ you posted this on a social platform used by minors that is not under threat by the government

Some people just want to be angry.

    For real. It's one of about a dozen social media apps. It also happens to be one of the biggest pieces of spyware and is legit controlled by the Chinese State. Like, people....just because it's full of candy, puppies, and people dancing, doesn't mean it has good intentions.

    A bunch of teenagers hanging out in a park are definitely going to have the cops called on them, no matter what they're doing.

    Where is this the case? Unimaginable here in Canada.

    Clearly it's a US-only thing, but even back in the 90s when me and my nerdy friends decided to brave the sunshine and hang out in a park we'd have the cops pull up and ask us to leave.

    All of the parks in my area cater to parents of kids under 10, so anyone who's not there with a child of that age is immediately suspicious, especially to nosy Karens. Hell, I'd get nasty looks from moms when I would take my own kids to the park.
