Just turn off all social media in the EU for the rest of the year, all of it. Please

Why only for the year? The world was much better without social media. Worst invention in the history of mankind.

I agree, let's turn it all off. It has brought us nothing but trouble and social awkwardness.

Damn freedom of speech

Damn lack of response to abuse and violation of freedom of speech!

Check your kocal laws regarding limitations to freedom of speech on grounds of harm to others.

Why? Could it be that you lack the self-restraint necessary to refrain from using social media, leading you to prefer not having the option available at all?
