@roguebrogue6@EricBoehm87 Don't sell yourself short--in addition to your unusually superb reading comprehension you're also an encyclopedia of obscure and widely misunderstood demographic facts and analysis
@bonchieredstate When Matty is weaker than you he asks you for freedom because that is according to your principles; when he is stronger than you he takes away your freedom because that is according to his principles
@roguebrogue6@EricBoehm87 I'm happy you agree with me but there's some guy further up the thread who claims boomers collect the most because they paid in the most so maybe you can straighten him out
@roguebrogue6@EricBoehm87 How much they receive *does not* depend on how much they paid in. Ida Mae Fuller was the first person to receive a SS check. She paid a total of $24 in SS taxes, received ~$23k in SS benefits.
@Anachronistian@GreenOnionDuck@LancesLegion@Antweegonus "My crude 19th century utilitarian materialism says we must abort the tards" is the most potent distillation of midwit normie Oliver Wendell Holmes-stanning I've seen here in a minute
@sewell_herb@NaomiVFisher Op stated a preference, you responded with a claim about the constitution of lazy parenting. I asked you to substatiate that claim, you won't, and now I'm telling you that op wants her children to do better than you.
Fin.
It's about time for a anti-smartphone, anti-AI counterculture among the youth---maybe 5 years from now, the kids will be rejecting this techno-paradigm and developing their own forms of life. I'm looking forward to it. & I hope my kids are a part of it.
@sewell_herb@NaomiVFisher Herb you made a claim, not an argument. I asked you for some *argument* to support your claim and you... told me to ask a chatbot.
Do you not see how maybe a professor of philosophy raising seven kids might like for those children to not be like that.
@sewell_herb@NaomiVFisher "...it's easier parenting to do half-assed tech abstinence 👍" got her Herb where can I read more I'm sure there's a literature on this and your views are based on a thorough consideration of it
