It's about time we stopped giving parents carte blanche with children. The failures of bad parents cause horrific ripples through society for centuries, on repeat forever, at some point a line has to be drawn.

We need a massive culture shift, "fuck around find out" isn't working

"the UK will not join the Legion of Doom, for now"

And to be clear I'm not saying the concept of "how do you do my fellow kids" mocking older people for trying to appear youthful is unique to gen-z

What I'm saying is we mocked 50 year old pastors preaching with gangster rap, not "40 year old man buys an iPhone"

They literally always say this, there's always some chief or general or ex-head of some branch of the military saying "give us more cash and bring back conscription".

Now they're yapping about buying it (which Denmark already turned down) I wonder how typically-poor MAGA Americans will spin spending hundreds of billions of dollars on it? That's not very DOGE of them

I mean, they're doing it to themselves. The commentary comes from the chair of the Birmingham and West Midlands Jewish Community, Ruth Jacobs.

It's the same as with ICE disappearing people - "but they're bad people! They're there illegally!" is irrelevant *even if true*, everyone agreed the focus should be the death of due process and the rise of a fascist government, and the SAME is true here, just on a bigger scale

I know you think "but nuance!" and that's fine if you're writing an essay you want a good grade on, but if you want to be involved in a public conversation, your desire to look smart only aids war hawks and imperialists.

The sole framed focus should be on its biggest consequence, the death of law

At this point it's as if Trump set out to make "Iraq has WMD's" seem plausible in retrospect

Okay but they didn't ban Jewish people, they banned a group of people *known for violent clashes*, it's not anti-Semitic it's protecting the locals

I think the crazy thing about this is how many people straight up don't believe this thing could possibly weigh 200kg because "it bounces"

Ignoring the fact that it knocked a grown man, who was bracing for impact, onto the floor WITH SUFFICIENT FORCE to injure him.
