But Jamie isn't only a response to incel culture.
Jamie certainly isn't only a response to Andrew Tate.
Jamie is a response to his nurture.
He's a response to his schooling.
He's in response to his friendship group.
He's in a response to his own brain chemistry.
He's a response to his own relationship with shame, which is born from what happened at his sixth birthday party, as much as it's from the stuff that he read when he was 12 on the internet.
or the stuff that he heard, or the stuff that was presented to him.
So he's a complicated mix, and I hope we caught all those complicated mixes, and that he's not just reduced to being, this is what happens when you watch stuff on the internet for too long.
I hope that he's like a rounded character with lots of colors within him, because that's, I think, a true portrait of damage, and reducing him to one thing wouldn't be a true portrait.
I think we should be doing a lot of different things.
I do think a social media ban is a very good idea.
Oh, good.
Because I think when brains are plastic, we need to protect them.
And I think that we know what smartphones do to us.
And I think it's destroyed people's concentration.
I think it's done huge damage to girls as well as boys.
And I think it feeds toxic ideas.
And I think anything that has a profit motive in keeping kids addicted to it is not something that we should be encouraging.
we live in an age of the four richest men in the history of mankind, and they have been made rich by keeping us on our devices.
