    Calling you out for posting made up nonsense broadly attacking a group you frequently disparage is not vagueposting, that’s very direct. Even if you believe your prejudices truly are representative enough of the whole to warrant being shared, which no, don’t try and dismiss their criticism by reframing what they’ve said as something you can object to. That’s not what they were doing, and what you’re doing is transparent.

        Yeah you know what, I do in fact think that you’ve made up the idea that liberals are prone to torturing their children. Gonna stick with that. No idea what any of the rest of that has to do with torturing their children, and most of it is highly conservative behavior, so. Just gonna ignore it.

            The (again made up) assumption that I’ve lived a sheltered life is another attempt to dismiss the argument as baseless instead of addressing it. You have no evidence for these claims, you’ve just got your prejudice.

              You’ve definitely lived a sheltered life if you don’t believe in shitty parents, idk what to tell you.

                My argument has never been that shitty parents don’t exist, don’t try to present like I have ever claimed that. Everything here is pointing out that your fantasy - that a significant proportion of parents fall into the category of “pacifist liberals who torture their kids” - is something you just plain made up.

                Edit: Oh. Well thank you, mods!

                  I didn’t “make up” anything, I commented about an experience I have witnessed among many, many of my peers. Shitty parents who fetishize rules and uphold them over what is right are very common in my personal, lived experience. I am happy for you that you find this so unbelievable, because it means your life has been much better than mine.
