      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.

          there is a very harmful liberal pacifist tendency in a significant part of the population which leads to people being punished for fighting back against injustice?

          You think a significant part of the population would torture their child over this?

            Yes, definitely. Plenty of parents would just see “my son punched someone at school and got suspended for 2 days” and they would do everything in their power to make those 2 days hell as punishment. I’m honestly amazed some of y’all seem not to be familiar with these types of parents.

          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!
