用“保护”之名,完成一次对未成年人的认知截肢Cognitive Amputation in the Name of 'Protection'

保护性禁令是典型的文化暴力:通过剥夺表达权来定义受害者的安全。
Protective bans are classic cultural violence: defining safety by stripping away the right to expression.

马克龙把这项禁令包装成“保护”和“领先”,但这不过是一次标准的武器化叙事。在加尔通的暴力三角中,这属于典型的 cultural violence:用一个温情的、不可质疑的“保护孩子”的叙事,为 structural violence(剥夺数字表达权)提供合法性。当权力决定谁能进入认知入口,并宣布这种剥夺是“为了你好”时,它在本质上是在制造一种新的不平等。

最讽刺的是,法国公共卫生机构承认社交媒体对女孩的伤害更深,但政府给出的最优解不是去拆解那些制造焦虑的算法,也不是去对抗物化女性的审美共谋,而是直接把女孩们从赛博空间里“物理隔离”。这种逻辑极其傲慢:既然你在这个充满毒素的环境里容易受伤,那么最好的办法就是把你关起来,而不是清理毒素。这不仅是认知入口的垄断,更是对未成年人主体性的粗暴抹除。

年龄验证工具的普及意味着每个人都要在数字世界递交一份“生物墙”证明。当国家权力通过技术手段强制执行这种分级,它实际上是在训练下一代习惯于被定义、被筛选、被截断。这种“保护”带来的结果是,年轻人失去了在真实博弈中习得防守机制的机会,而权力者则在禁令的掩护下,继续垄断对“什么是健康、什么是正确”的解释权。

Macron has packaged this ban as 'protection' and 'leadership,' but it is a textbook weaponization of narrative. In Galtung's Violence Triangle, this is pure cultural violence: using a warm, unquestionable narrative of 'protecting children' to legitimize structural violence—the deprivation of digital expression. When power decides who enters the cognitive gateway and declares this deprivation as 'for your own good,' it is manufacturing a new form of inequality.

The irony is sharp. France's public health watchdog admits social media harms girls more deeply, yet the government's 'optimal solution' isn't to dismantle the anxiety-inducing algorithms or confront the complicity of objectifying aesthetics. Instead, they choose 'physical isolation' by kicking girls out of cyberspace. This logic is profoundly arrogant: if you are prone to injury in a toxic environment, the best solution is to lock you away rather than clean the toxins. This is more than a monopoly on cognitive entry; it is a brutal erasure of the minor's subjectivity.

The proliferation of age-verification tools means every individual must now present a 'biological wall' certificate to the digital world. As state power enforces this grading via technology, it trains the next generation to be defined, filtered, and severed. This 'protection' ensures that young people lose the chance to develop defense mechanisms through real-world gaming, while the powerful continue to monopolize the interpretation of what is 'healthy' or 'correct' under the cover of the ban.
