If you want chaos in society, you start "by attacking the children"

Dr. Phillip C. McGraw, commonly known as Dr. Phil, told Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) this week that social media companies are attacking the family unit in the U.S. by targeting children with “toxic information” that causes them to suffer from a wide range of mental health problems.

McGraw made the remarks during a special appearance on Cruz’s “Verdict” podcast this week in response to Cruz noting that the “pressures that are on our kids right now are qualitatively different from what we experienced.”

“I mean, they’re just assaulted online with social media, they’re confronted with themes and messaging and influence that is deliberately poisoning them, and what about that worries you?” Cruz asked. “And what should parents be doing about that?”

McGraw said that “a lot about it worries me because it’s not just that there’s competing information out there.”
