saw the thing about "only parents should vote" and jesus fucking christ no what a terrible idea no serious person would validate an idea like that

parents as a group are sleep deprived, stressed, paranoid and ready to accept atrocities for others if the benefit to them is a 0.001% greater chance of their kids acquiring some undeserved marker of status

then as soon as their kids have flown the nest, they fight tooth and nail to prevent any new investment in the community that raised them

as a voting bloc, parents may actually be more dangerous than boomers

some of my best friends are parents and I love them as individual people one at a time, but as a group they are utterly deranged
