    The notion that some things may be inappropriate for kids is easly misused when it’s turned into a principle and as such we end up where the US is now, withholding civil rights from children and using child safety to push identity politics.

    I do hope you are not a parent.

      I wish we have restrictions based on mental capacity rather than age. Fucking dimwits aged 40+ can’t think better than elementary schoolers

      I hope you aren’t either. You probably try to make everything into a political diatribe.

      Actually, I hope you don’t have kids, because you are clearly not a parent, regardless of whether you’ve been able to spawn.
