禁令是保护,还是另一种形式的生物墙Protection or Another Biological Wall

以保护之名的禁令,往往是权力在抢夺未成年人的认知入口。
Bans in the name of protection are often power grabs for the cognitive entry points of minors.

英国拟议的 16 岁以下社交媒体禁令,在主流叙事中被包装成一种“保护”——保护孩子免受算法成瘾、网络霸凌和精神内耗。但如果我们把视角拉高到 Violence Triangle,这就是典型的 structural violence 伪装成 cultural care。所谓的保护,本质上是在物理和数字层面为未成年人(尤其是女孩)重新修筑一道生物墙。

社交媒体虽然充斥着被 weaponized 的审美陷阱和消费主义 scam,但它在客观上也提供了一个打破原生家庭、打破地域共谋的认知入口。对于很多身处压抑环境中的孩子来说,数字空间是她们第一次意识到“原来我的痛苦不是个例”的场所。而禁令通过切断这个入口,强行将孩子重新推回由父母、学校等传统权威垄断的男性中心叙事中。

这种禁令最阴险的地方在于,它并不解决社交媒体本身的算法暴力,而是通过剥夺弱势者的表达权来达成所谓的“安全”。这不过是权力者在发现自己无法掌控数字空间的解释权后,采取的粗暴清场。当一个孩子被告知“为了你好”而不能连接世界时,她失去的不是一个 App,而是她在存在性战争中唯一可以用来寻找真.最优解表达的潜能。

The UK's proposed social media ban for under-16s is packaged in the mainstream narrative as "protection"—shielding children from algorithmic addiction and cyberbullying. However, viewed through the Violence Triangle, this is structural violence masquerading as cultural care. This "protection" is essentially the reconstruction of a biological wall in both physical and digital dimensions.

While social media is rife with weaponized aesthetic traps and consumerist scams, it objectively provides a cognitive entry point to break away from the complicity of nuclear families and local environments. For many children in oppressive settings, digital spaces are where they first realize their pain is not an isolated incident. By severing this connection, the ban forcibly pushes them back into a masculine-centric narrative monopolized by parents and schools.

The most insidious part of this ban is that it does not address the algorithmic violence of the platforms; instead, it achieves "safety" by stripping the vulnerable of their right to expression. It is a crude clearing of the field by those in power who realized they could no longer control the interpretation of reality in digital spaces. When a child is told they cannot connect to the world "for their own good," they aren't just losing an app—they are losing the potential to find their true optimal expression in the existential war.
