WHY CAN PARENTS NOT DO THIS ASPECT?!
This is the continual wild part of recent conservative bullshit. Everything the State is taking up is basically something a parent could step in and deal with.
"My kid read a bad book that turned them into a frog! Which is also gay!"
Well watch what your fucking is reading then and have a discussion about why you disapprove of it.
"My kid is watching porn and now they can't function in society and don't want to get a $7.25/hr job of listening to Karens scream at them!"
Then fucking don't leave a computer in the their room perhaps? Maybe take their phone away at the end of the day? I mean or have a rational discussion about their ever changing body as they begin to become an adult? I mean any one of those is better than "OH I KNOW! I'LL LET THE GOVERNMENT PARENT FOR ME!!"
And what's wilder about the Conservative movement, the level of parenting has zero rhyme or reason.
Fucking wild is what it is!
I'm really struggling to wrap my head around where this line between Government overstepping and justified Government regulation is with them. If you don't want your kid watching porn, then don't let them fucking watch porn. Ideally you should have a talk about their ever evolving sexuality but clearly that's just crazy liberal talk from me.
I had some discussion with someone once about the 10th amendment and it relating to State's banning abortion. And guy was like "Oh yeah this is a clear win for State's rights!" And I'm like, the 10th amendment is setup that we have one of two winners at the end of the day. The State or the People.
It says OR there. That means every "State win" is a "the people loss". You do understand that right?
Just fucking silence as that thought slow rolled into his brain's processing center, that then subsequently hit the panic button because of overload.
I just fucking can't. DO you want Big Brother in everything or no? Because every inch you give to the Government helps them step-bro your ass.
It's things they don't like, if they don't like it, regulate it until it disappears.
