A viral clip from 2021 shows Donald Trump’s running mate hyping an antidemocratic plan once pushed in Hungary that would give people with children more voting power.
Same. They offered a fair opinion, gave a reason, stated conflicts with their opinion and expressed an openness to other perspectives.
The Internet: How dare you think you get more votes!
I love it.
So genuinely, how do you expect this to work? Am I supposed to just go upvote every dumb as shit opinion I read on the internet so everyone feels better?
Anyone is welcome to publicly share their opinion, don’t be surprised when people, who are also welcome to share their opinions, respond to it and poke holes in the logic.
Why would his opinion not be subject to critique from the hundreds of people who use this site? Don’t post if you don’t want your opinions to be scrutinized by the forum you’re posting in.
A ridiculous opinion. All the survivors of abusive, narcissistic parents can tell you that the only “skin” they have in the game is “what do I get out of it?” Also, childless people have nieces, nephews, children of cousins, friends with kids, etc. They might love and care about those kids as much as any child they might have had themselves. So they do have skin in the game.
My girlfriend unfortunately can’t have kids. Just forget about her, right? She only takes care of old people for a living. But she’s so uncaring, right?
You definitely underestimate the narcissism of parents. My dad votes for policies that hurt this country and his children. He votes for Republicans that are against women’s rights and trans rights and want to defund support for struggling children in schools. He does not deserve more votes than I do. I’m a socially isolated person with no children and I really don’t care to be around children, but I still vote for their future. Parents do not deserve more votes.
I think you underestimate the number of narcissistic, abusive parents who don’t care about their children except for how those children will do something to benefit them.
I’m commenting so I can come back and see how badly you’re dogpiled for stating and elaborating an opinion.

First, I make popcorn.

I think you underestimate the number of socially isolated or uncaring people who truly have no children in their lives

Go fuck yourself
Chill. I was only saying that those people exist, not sure why everyone is acting like I kicked their puppy.
Maybe this was the wrong comment I responded to because the original comment i was responding to was nasty. Sorry if I misclicked
I just hope you didn’t edit what you said to look better
