Let’s talk about the nonsense coming from the Heads Up Alliance (HUA) and their pals at News Corp. They claim Drew Barrymore had her phone taken away as a child—seriously? Phones didn’t even exist back then! Instead of focusing on real issues, they’re spinning tales to fit their anti-tech agenda.

Drew Barrymore’s struggles in her youth—battling addiction and even attempting suicide—were very real, and none of them were caused by "Big Tech." These were serious issues in the olden days of Hollywood, long before smartphones were even a thing. But the HUA seems to think everything revolves around technology, ignoring the real challenges kids face.

Then there’s the ridiculous claim that Drew endorses their "play-based childhood" nonsense. There’s an Instagram post floating around about it, but I’m willing to bet that’s the work of one of her Australian editors who’s in bed with the HUA. It’s just another example of how the HUA and their cheerleaders at the Today Show are making stuff up as they go along.

And let’s not forget the disgusting stereotypes they’re spreading—like saying all boys watch porn (seriously, ew wtf) and all girls have body image issues because of social media. That’s not just wrong; it’s offensive. I know for a FACT that this is not true.

We’ve had enough of these fabrications and fearmongering. The HUA and News Corp are pushing dangerous, outdated stereotypes that do more harm than good. It’s time to call them out and demand better. Our voices matter, and we won’t stand by while they spread lies and distort the truth.
