NYC mayor thinks your speech is an ‘environmental’ threat
Opinion by Carl Szabo • 7h
New York City Mayor Eric Adams just classified social media as an "environmental" threat, a move that seems more driven by fear of free speech and information access rather than by genuine concern for public health.
This action isn’t fundamentally about social media; it’s an effort by Adams to deflect from his own legal issues and policy missteps. It also happens that social media is a conduit for citizens to express their concerns or discontent about government policies, which some Democrats seem too keen to want to limit.
The mayor’s Social Media Advisory cites alarming statistics between 2011 and 2021, such as a 42% increase in hopelessness among NYC high schoolers. However, these figures not only fail to directly correlate to social media use, but it’s clear Adams isn’t following "the science."
