    Newton: I mean, look, Dave, I can tell you’re getting a little bit frustrated here.

    Baszucki: I’m actually not frustrated. I just, I’m so excited to talk — I thought we were going to be talking about fun, funny things in the industry and all of that. So I’m not frustrated, I’m just kind of figuring out how much fun time I have with you guys and how much fun time we have versus kind of this superfocus. But I’m happy to talk about whatever you guys want.

    “I don’t want to talk about our predator problem, I want to talk about getting kids on our platform”

      Silicon Valley has always been pioneered by rapists. SV has always been about breaking boundaries and coercing consent

      The company itself preys on children. The largest developers prey on children. It’s not always the body that predators are after. It often is the vulnerability and naivety.
