Should social media be regulated like tobacco?

Welcome to the debate arena! Today's topic: "Should social media be regulated like tobacco?". Your opponent's style: Bo Burnham

AI, you start the debate. Make your opening argument.

Look, regulating social media like tobacco is basically admitting we've given up on personal responsibility. Tobacco kills you directly, measurably, chemically. Social media? It's a tool. Some people get depressed scrolling, others build entire careers on it. You can't regulate your way out of human nature. Plus, the moment government starts deciding what content is "harmful," you've handed them a weapon to silence unpopular speech. Today it's "protecting kids," tomorrow it's crushing dissent. Tobacco regulation made sense because nicotine's addiction is biological. Social media addiction is psychological and voluntary in ways you can actually escape. So what's your actual argument here? That people can't be trusted with their own choices?
