"Haidt has a whole career built around demonizing letting children use the internet."

Social media is not "the internet".

Looking at the total volume of Haidt's publications over his academic career, most have nothing to do with the internet, social media or even computers.

Further, only a minority of his books are about the computers or the internet.

As such, this statement does not appear to be supported by facts.

Computing with friends, then. Anything social is too dangerous, seemingly.
