The data on anxiety, depression, and a double in suicide rates in young people makes this a national, as well as international, health crisis. The silence from Silicon Valley is deafening. These tech corporations are responsible for killing our children after robbing them of their childhoods. New legislation in many states does not allow safe or effective controls to protect our children. Meta, ByteDance, X, Snap, and Discord combined to spend a staggering $30 million on lobbying last year — and employed one lobbyist for roughly every four members of Congress. Our lawmakers have sold the welfare of our nation's children. Suicide rates today are higher for adolescent girls than at any point previously recorded. Suicide rates are higher for girls aged 10 -17 in the United States, the UK, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand than any previous generation in history when they were young. This mental health crisis is caused by social media and our lawmakers, who willingly accept their bribes.
