I mean we should all be able to leave our desk to go pick up a prescription for ourselves or a family member. That's the problem, not that parents are the only ones with the privilege.
The discrimination in regards to parents is real. In an interview I was asked if I would be able to keep up with a demanding schedule because I have kids. In my experience, women with children get the opposite end of that consideration than with men being considered bread winners. This is messed up any way you slice it.
I was raised in a Christian private school back in the 90s. We were scared of gay people and little me thought it was because we were scared of being raped like in Sodom & Gomorrah. So I was surprised when the concern was not that we would get jumped by some gay man in the bathroom but between two consenting adults.
The system is the best representative democracy money can buy. So unless you're going to pay for votes like Musk, this just doesn't ring true to the lived experience of the majority of Americans.
I want representative democracy, it is just not what most people in America experience. Me criticizing the system is not somehow anti-democratic.
This attitude of telling people they're wrong about the system is just pathetic. You're advertising your own weakness to not adapt when the rules get changed.
If people are disappointed in the system, maybe don't say the system proves our leaders are popular. Saying just about anything else would be less of a turn off.
DNC leadership literally said they would rather loose than tarnish Biden's legacy with critique. That's why Harris wasn't allowed to differentiate herself in any meaningful way.
One of these is not like the others
