Leftists Denounce New Oppressor Group: Parents Raising Their Children

The parents are the oppressors, the children are the oppressed.

A lunatic names Noah Berlatsky, whose job it is to crank out ultrawoke gibberish for NBC "News," now discovers parental privilege and how it's "abusive" to literal minor-ities.

And he can prove it with his Marx citations!

there are things you can do to try to minimize the abuse that's endemic to the parent/child relationship, but it's always there.

it's not great that people's response to "kids are oppressed" is "well you must treat your children badly."

Like, when people say, "women are oppressed" do you immediately jump to, "this person must oppress their spouse"?

When people criticized him, he turned into a Salty Little Peanut.

ableism and racism at once. this tweet has it all. https://t.co/LMjUWhAjj6

See, I was troubled when Liz Bruenig blocked me rather than say whether she thought gay sex was sinful. That seems like a thing that might affect one's parenting badly, if we're comparing notes. pic.twitter.com/6VlphUBdRv

When his appeal to the authority of Marx and Engels failed to convince readers of his lunatic delusion, he turned to citing the authority of Messrs. Calvin and Hobbes:

it's almost too perfect. "I will mock the idea that parents are abusive with a cartoon that shows literal physical abuse! ha ha."
— Noah Berlatsky (@nberlat) December 15, 2020

I mean, Watterson's version is obviously meant as exaggeration. but when you put it in the context of a discussion about child abuse, Calvin's dad is literally throwing heavy tools at a six year old.

Meanwhile, Ritz Crackers wants to wish you a very trans Christmas.

Did I say Christmas? Of course, Christmas is conspicuously absent in the ad. There is the vague suggestion of a secular or pagan winter festival, but no mention of Christmas.

That would be controversial.

But a man slathering on hot pink lipstick and garish blue eye shadow before heading out to hang out with children?

That's just wholesome corporate transnational values.
