The term snake oil is actually especially fitting for this, due to its origins.
In Britain in the 1700s there was a somewhat common recommendation for using rattlesnake oil from the fat of the snake for skin diseases/rheumatism. The efficacy is debated but it's got some amount of potential for change (if not help).
This turned into people in the US selling mineral oil as "snake oil" as a total panacea. So a product that actually could do stuff being used as the poster child for a completely useless product that can solve every issue ever, buy as much as you can today.
Definitely part of it. I'm a huge nerd, but years ago raced motorcycles in the US. The demographic makeup difference between that and going to a local MTG event is insane. Seriously, out of hundreds of people at a race track at a time and a decade of doing this I know 2 openly gay people and 0 trans people.
Not sure you could go into my local MTG shop without seeing that many gay/trans people. It's lovely, but I think highlights the bias in what hobbies people will lean towards or how honestly they'll be about themselves depending on the social situation
It is supposed to be anonymous with our MitID system, which is already in place for almost everything. How it works (on paper at least) is that the social media site would send a question to MitID, like "is this person at least 16?" And MitID just responds with yes/no
So again, in theory, no social media site should be getting your ID here. Only the government, which absolutely has it and is in fairly high trust from the people in Denmark.
