The Children Of Hitler's "Master Race" Experiment
An estimated 200,000 children were stolen from their parents in Poland, Russia and several Eastern European regions for the purpose of ‘Germanization’. They were categorised into groups from the “most desirable” to the least Aryan-looking. If they couldn’t be of use to help build Hitler’s master race, they were discarded and sent off to concentration camps. If a child was considered “acceptable” they would begin indoctrination, spending time at ‘re-education camps’ before being fostered out to German families or boarding schools where they could become culturally German. They were given new German names and forced to forget their birth parents and ancestry. Any children who fought against their indoctrination or resisted, met a tragic fate.

Age verification is IMO discrimination and ageism and grossly tramples the basic human and constitutional fundamental right to freedom of expression and seriously impinges upon the ability to socialize. I think it's an authoritarian attempt to prevent people from rightfully and freely organizing and exchanging ideas.

What deliberately makes our children addicted and threatens democracy with its hatred, fascism, and racism cannot be good for adults either.

In this week’s newsletter: A generation is using the legal system to demand accountability for climate harmDharna Noor (The Guardian)
Something that urgently needs to be understood abut today's youth, in particular how it pertains to the fediverse and open web as a whole is that they are not growing up alongside the internet anymore. This seemingly self-evident statement has huge ramifications that a lot of tech enthusiasts don't seem to be aware of.
(Thanks to @tzeentcha for most of the input on this topic. More toots below.)
What We mean by that is that the web has, in a sense, stopped growing. Sure, FAANG had a strong grip on many a generation growing up - monopolizing attention, experimenting on behavior manipulation, optimizing away the intra-creature connections and insistently pushing algorithmically curated recommendation feeds as the primary means of interaction - but, until relatively recently, it was still pretty widely understood that that's not all there is to existing on the internet.
That is rapidly changing for kids nowadays, however, and it's going down largely unnoticed.

Ich verstehe manche Fotograf:innen nicht, die vor der Zusammenarbeit mit Kindern und Jugendlichen zurückschrecken. Meine Erfahrung ist vielmehr, dass wenn man sie richtig abholt, sie viel engagiertere Models sind als viele Erwachsen. Ein kleiner Denkanstoß zum #Fotomontag 😀
