@dantheclamman That little post isn’t particularly deep, or convincing.
It’s just parroting the currently fashionable stuff from the “left intellectual” press.
What’s REALLY disturbing about that shit, is:
* it mixes sexual/romance relationship with the relationship between parent & young-child, and *that is vile, underhanded, dishonest, and multidimensionally-improper*.
* it tries to disable thinking, culturally, displacing it with social-pressure
( which both left & right use, btw…
The most comical globally-visible example of that was the mass herd-protests after Trump was elected.
Masses of leftists heaped together to protest … Trump being active president.
And Universe *wouldn’t obey* this mass herd-assertion!!
IMPOSSIBLE!!
( incredulity is normal, among the social-process-obedient )
Eventually, Naomi Klein told them “saying no isn’t enough”, and they stopped.
But … they really believed that Universe would stop, drop, & roll, to obey their social-assertion of their herd??
Yes, they did.
THAT is frightening.
the right’s conforming/enforcing centrism is culturally-different from the left’s belonging-herd centrism, but both displace intelligence, with strategic/planet-scale lethal consequences, when one holds to the long view )
* it holds that one’s cultural-habit is better a decider than is intelligence ( both left & right do this, and the degree of competent-education required to break that from a population is well-beyond what our “education” has allowed/tolerated, to be )
* it holds that the rest of the world ought obey its cultural-delusion instead of considered-thinking, which means that considered-thinking has already been eradicated from within that culture
etc.
There are plenty of points, and that little item, linked-to, missed/ignored most of 'em…

Feel free to mute me, so you never see anything I say ever again…

Are you a bot? Because that was a rambling word-salad with no discernible point.
@Echinoderm Really?
You hit the original post’s “insight”,
then you read mine,
and that is your conclusion?
Then mute me.
I’m muting you now.
Masses of leftists heaped together to protest … Trump being active president.
Go on… tell us what happened on January 6th, 2020.
@FlyingSquid What has Jan 6th’s crimes got to do with Trump remaining president in-spite-of massed left protest against the fact of his having been elected??
Nothing.
I’m no apologist for the Trump cult.
I’m *also* no apologist for any other cult, left or right.
The mass-protests of the left, against Trump, were supposed to produce … obedience-to-collective-assertion?
Mobarchy, then?
Both kinds of delusion are dangerous.
Never grant either rule of entire-countries.

I don’t know… sounds like Republicans gathering together to overthrow the government with a fairly elected president. Seems worse to me.

I don’t think lots of women peacefully walking around is “mobarchy”, or “enforcing obedience” or whatever stupid shit you’re saying.
In fact women peacefully protesting trumps misogyny sounds like the opposite.
Not sure why you’d characterize women disagreeing with trump saying “grab them by the pussy” like that.
Literally everything about Mike Johnson is disturbing, starting with the fact that his penis sticks out of his collar.
