    @dantheclamman That little post isn’t particularly deep, or convincing.

    It’s just parroting the currently fashionable stuff from the “left intellectual” press.

    What’s REALLY disturbing about that shit, is:

    * it mixes sexual/romance relationship with the relationship between parent & young-child, and *that is vile, underhanded, dishonest, and multidimensionally-improper*.

    * it tries to disable thinking, culturally, displacing it with social-pressure

    ( which both left & right use, btw…

    The most comical globally-visible example of that was the mass herd-protests after Trump was elected.

    Masses of leftists heaped together to protest … Trump being active president.

    And Universe *wouldn’t obey* this mass herd-assertion!!

    IMPOSSIBLE!!

    ( incredulity is normal, among the social-process-obedient )

    Eventually, Naomi Klein told them “saying no isn’t enough”, and they stopped.

    But … they really believed that Universe would stop, drop, & roll, to obey their social-assertion of their herd??

    Yes, they did.

    THAT is frightening.

    the right’s conforming/enforcing centrism is culturally-different from the left’s belonging-herd centrism, but both displace intelligence, with strategic/planet-scale lethal consequences, when one holds to the long view )

    * it holds that one’s cultural-habit is better a decider than is intelligence ( both left & right do this, and the degree of competent-education required to break that from a population is well-beyond what our “education” has allowed/tolerated, to be )

    * it holds that the rest of the world ought obey its cultural-delusion instead of considered-thinking, which means that considered-thinking has already been eradicated from within that culture

    etc.

    There are plenty of points, and that little item, linked-to, missed/ignored most of 'em…
