Yes, actually. Their entire playbook is “dems do one thing, then republicans do a similar action but in bad faith, turned up to 11, then blame the dems for why they did the thing” in order to “work the refs” (the “both sides” media and public opinion). Without something to point to in order to muddy the waters, their ideas fall flat outside of the right wing echo chamber. but while the ruling is correct politically, it is dead wrong on the history and legality. It’s also another apparent case of Chief Justice “Balls and Strikes” doing some Horse trading in order to secure unanimity. In exchange for what I don’t know. I would hope it was this in exchange for an immunity ruling that closes the door on what Trump is asking for (but was purchased with a delay to placate Alito and Thomas on trumps behalf)

You are such a child

Aside from the extremely weird language, turns out you live in a society and “being around kids” is not a burden or problem to you whatsoever. There’s no problem with adults only places and activities but when I said that society deems that children not be seen or heard in spaces that are not explicitly family or child marketed, this comment is what I’m talking about. The idea that *I* get to be annoyed by the mere presence of *you and your children* is part of what makes this country so fucking hostile to parents. your inability to see this point because “why can’t you get over me being visibly or audibly annoyed by the presence of your children” is so frustrating because it is so self centered and anti social. And I’m using the point here that your complaints are based on the mere presence of children, not their behavior. My post was centered on the presence of children regardless of their behavior. And your reply is confirmation to the objection of their presence in whatever space that is not family or child marketed and not explicitly adults only. This only proves my point: children are not to be seen or heard, get back in your home and don’t exist in society with your family. That’s the implicit if not explicit message

One more thing but there are fewer and fewer child appropriate restaurants anymore. Even McDonald’s and chic fil a are doing away with the kids place spaces! There simply is no appropriate place to go and eat with children because the restaurants are chasing the dollar and want seating space!

In case anyone wonders why parents are stressed the fuck out when taking their kids anywhere in public just look at this thread. You can’t win as a parent even with relatively well behaved children. If you’re not in an adults only location get the fuck over yourself and show some grace, you don’t know what those parents or kids are going through and the judgement you give from one interaction with them is very palpable and it fucking sucks and is more stressful than your mild inconvenience. a kid could be “well behaved” at a table at a restaurant and you still get judgement instead of ignored because everyone has a fucking opinion about you and your kids and their behavior, good or bad. And lord forbid if a young mother have to breastfeed their newborn. this country has zero support for parents and children and the absolutely toxic shit you see here is part of the stressors with even taking your kids to the supermarket let alone to a restaurant or on a plane to see family or god forbid a “vacation” or taking any kind of break. And I get it, you may ignore the kids or parents or whatever, but this ain’t a one on one interaction. The culture is very much “children should not be seen or heard” when in a public place that is not explicitly family or child oriented. And then in the next breath wonder why people grow up not knowing how to behave in public when they aren’t taught how to do so starting at a young age
