maybe im rambling but i see too much about how kids need to be beat to be disciplined. seeing vids of kids misbehaving and i see comments of how their parents would have them beat. wtf that is not normal at all why are we accepting this

    I have a unique insight on this. My uncle is a deranged Trump guy and posted one of those memes you’re talking about, where it was like, “This is what happens when you don’t beat your kids!”

    I reached out to him, and I asked if he beat his kids (my cousins), and he became furious at me for suggesting he abuses his kids. He even got my aunt to yell at me for suggesting the same.

    So, basically, they think other people’s kids should be beaten.

      Did you tell him you got the thought from his post? Maybe it’s a good strategy to get them to not post shit like this if they realise it makes people think they beat their own kids.

        Did my best but he got spitting mad almost instantly and blocked me. We haven’t spoken since. We’ve gone kind of no-contact with that side of the family since Trump because my sister is trans and they’re shitty about it.
