"But maybe if you were more positive you would have ended up like me."

Oh a bigoted mom who thinks she's entitled to not give a s*** about anybody because now she's giving birth to a child who will be more favored by the patriarchy than other kinds of unfavored children that you're also raising your own children to discriminate against just as much as you do? Just because that's what you were taught to do?

This sounds really nice.

There should be rehab clinics for people who want to get unaddicted to acting like uncaring bigots.

There should be rehab clinics for those kinds of problems and those kinds of addictions. 

There should be 12-step programs for those kinds of problems and for those kinds of addictions.

It's just an idea!

Why not ask Jesus for help? It might help. It would have

Ask the Jesus that you claim to love to help you with your racism and your sexism and your bigotry, so that you can see people who actually exist, and in some cases, they might be living right down the street from you sometimes!

It really could be a soap opera.

All the categories of children and grandchildren that the sexist, racist grandparents didn't give a s*** about, Even though they were living in the supposedly more enlightened 2020s.

Bigoted people need to eat breakfast too, don't they??

They couldn't even train children to repeat their shallow self-absorbed bigotries if an underclass of mostly brown people weren't feeding them.

Compared to what got role-modeled for them.

May the grandchildren act much less entitled to discount certain kinds of girls and women or treat them so badly...

It would be so much nicer for so many different kinds of children, too.

"How to be much less uncaring towards certain kinds of girls and women than the ones who were the most pampered by the patriarchy and by white supremacy were."

They're out there! They really do exist!

Some people really should find the parents who are sensitive enough to act like they care about a much wider variety of humane beings who are living on this planet, and try hang out with them more often.

They really do exist!

U know what, I know some got addicted to not caring about certain kinds of people, but I really don't think it's Jesus who wanted them to act that way!

But why would some people still be so uncaring? 

Just to fit in with all their unwell friends? 

Or to fit in with what got role-modeled for them by their families?

I'm afraid so.

It's not Jesus who wanted you to do that.

 "I just discriminate against X types of people because it's easy and that's what Jesus would want me to do."

That's what happens when society evolves.

A bunch of things that got taken for granted as "normal" are not going to look quite so "normal" to repeat in the future because knowledge makes impossible to keep on repeating the same old tired, insensitive, uncaring customs.

I feel I should take this seriously, even though, not long ago, SNL writers made fun of the topic

"Growing up in Southern Georgia in a big household as one of seven girls, Jenny Mitchell, 34, had always dreamed of raising a family of her own. This goal was shattered one fateful day after a visit to the hospital. 'I'd been going to a fertility specialist to try to have kids because it's something that I'd always wanted. While getting a vaginal ultrasound, my doctor noticed something unusual on my uterine lining. I got tested, and three days later, I got the call saying I had adenocarcinoma, which is uterine cancer,' she tells Refinery29. 'I had to undergo a full hysterectomy to treat it, which was devastating — devastating because it literally took away that dream of mine to have kids and experience motherhood.'"

Just because a bunch of sexist people got suckered into the trap of NOT CARING about people in certain kinds of bodies doesn't mean that's your fate!

"Maybe the kids and grandkids don't have to be insensitive and uncaring about certain kinds of girls and women as the Patriarchal Society trained their own parents and grandparents to be!"

Ghosts celebrate this!

PPP (perhaps perhaps perhaps)

Perhaps some people could just change a little, and not ruin their lives, and not be mean to themselves, and not bully others and just change a little, for the better, in a healthy way, and maybe it could even be a happy sort of thing.

Maybe it would be interesting to visit some of these farms?

When I say your mind could be a hotbed of feminism...

I think I might almost be thinking of a dad bringing his kids into a hotel bar one time to look at the sparkling, pretty disco ball that was in their lounge, and when the lady told him "Children aren't allowed in here, sir," the dad said, smiling, "Oh, it's okay. I was just stopping by for a second, so they could look at the disco ball. I would never bring the children into this den of inequity."
