There’s been recent momentum around shaming people for getting high-paying physical jobs or for demanding better working conditions. There’s nothing ‘conservative’ or ‘traditional’ about wanting workers to suffer and get paid less. If we want to encourage families (and we should), this is one place to start.

We become acclimated to a certain state of life, and we expect that it won’t change. Likewise with our civilization, we grow complacent to the reality that it too can crumble, as others have throughout history. Too many are experiencing this myopia now, to the detriment of all.

The University of Pennsylvania’s course on abolishing the family succeeds in saying the quiet part out loud—outwardly expressing the fact that so many really do think that the family ought to be destroyed, for it is a hindrance to a different vision of society.

Going on a leisurely walk and would prefer a safer, prettier neighborhood? Bigotry. Want to drive surrounded by fields and flowers instead of concrete? Racism. So says your overlords.
