@Daojoan Yes. To be fair they never say they’re good values though…

I think they're called "family values" because they will kick you out of the family if you don't uphold them?

@RnDanger @Daojoan Ah, makes total sense

@Daojoan and "pro-life" never seems to involve making life worth living.
Or, indeed, livable.

@Daojoan The value of a family is what I can extract, if I have to push food in, that's the opposite of that

@Daojoan
The whole idea of a "family" was devised to establish/enforce the patriarchy and so to suppress and control you.

@Daojoan family values doesn't mean families are valued
Show threadWilliam JohnsonFeb 25
@Daojoan Often, “family values” only refer to morals, traditions, and advice
Show threadJuliaFeb 25
@Daojoan It doesn’t include “other people’s families”.

@catnip @Daojoan quite; whose family do I choose to bring to mind? (Especially in 🇬🇧 where the hypocrisy demonstrably starts with the leader's family 👑)

@Daojoan Its like child protection never includes to protect someone, but to legally rule over certain people, not even involved in the main topic.
