I mean there's a point to be a had. A blanket age restriction is probably the wrong way to go about it, but like, stranger danger doesn't apply to just the physical world. We teach kids the importance of not talking to strangers, but are completely fine with literal nazi forums. Nobody would let their kid attend a KKK meeting, but yet again, a literal nazi forum is fine?
