To answer the question, I care.
I don't believe in a strong self determinism and I'm more of the opinion that if most of "us" were in the wrong sociopolitical circumstances we could very well be racist murderers.
Stopping them from doing what they got duped into doing is an end that justify many means, but there's a significant difference between the leaders and the followers.
Just saying to a woman “Sorry, I only date DD cups.”
It's not "about women". Fisical attraction is a thing and it can be as legitimate as one wish to give it space in their life.
If you draw some kind of line at women with DD cups, good for you.
Of course you can derive all kind of judgements from that but it's not inherently "unethical".
I hated Barbie and felt relieved we are still in a world where a corporation can't effectively artwash itself out of being a corporation.
It's many things but the biggest one is how self-indulgent the movie is in portraing the lovable Ken and its goofy, fun sized and deserving of comprehension, and even sexual satisfaction, rapist society.
In general men has the agency, the talent, the trasformation while the women learn it's ok to cry.
I may have played a role in my daughter upbringing…
This is the comment you attacked, calling it dumb. I assume you are negating it.
The opposite of that sentence, according to modal laws, is...
I never played a role in my daughter upbringing...
I'm not interested in winning. I know what I have. You may take a second or two more before insulting strangers online, or offline for that matter.
That’s definitely not what they said
I said I would react to getting such messadge from my child reflecting on the possible mistakes I made in raising them.
They said that's not how it works.
I said education is a thing (implying therefore that parenting do actually play a role).
I had no idea people would get so mad at this, it's quite interesting. Do you guys all have terrible kids and are all playing a choral defense? I never said it's easy to be a parent or that you could (or shoud) mold them into whatever you want. But you surely are not infallible and you can clearly track most people attitude and behaviour back to the parentig style and the example they've met in the household.
Am I missing something? Is pedagogy being redifined from the ground up and a parent is but a feeding tool?
(If I sounded smug is partially because my mother was constantly praising me growing up).
"I don't want you to embarrass me".
Not "I don't want you to feel out of place" or "I don't want you to embarrass yourselves" or "I don't want these superficial people to think less of you because of something this superficial".
You do, in fact, sound extremely smart. I'm sure your caretaker had absolutely nothing to do with it and the whole field of pedagogy is chock full of morons.
You didn't raise her to find unacceptable to train your parents to behave differently to have them fit a crowd of rich people.
I can consistently sway my friends toward behaviours that are acceptable to me. I fail to see how this would somewhat be diminished in a parenting role.
What you are saying is that education is pointless and people come out of random number generators.
I'd kinda assume I may have played a role in my daughter upbringing...
I'm not sure why I picked up Yakuza0 but I was so suprised by what I got in my hand I made a goal of mine to play the whole lot.
The presentation of the character of Majima in the casino is so good I ended up bringing it up in conversations with non gaming dates and they still texted me back in the following days.
Same.
It doesn't help that "why do you love me" is often an impossible question to answer.
