Archaeopteryxes are about the size of a blackbird and are flying creatures that are considered the evolutionary ancestor of modern birds. They have two wide wings they use to fly and glide. However, unlike modern birds, archaeopteryxes have bony tails. They have beaks with sharp teeth which they use to tear flesh, for they are carnivorous. Prey is killed using their hyperextended second toes that hold a large claw.
We're not going to be talking about this extinct species. Instead, I'll be talking about three public freakouts. Your job is to decide if it is justified or not.
Who will clean your pottys?
This is a favorite of mine. It takes place om The View during a fierce debate surrounding Trump's anti-immigrant stance. In a bid to prove Trump's racism, kelly osborne makes a racist statement herself. She asks "if you kick every latinx out of this country, then who will be cleaning your potty Donald Trump?!" Her comment immediately elicits gasps and the camera hilariously pans to one of the latinx hosts who admonishes her.
Do you think she was being racist, or was she making a good point?
father spanks children for stealing
In this video we see a father whip the shit out of his kids for stealing. This is an ineffective form of parenting. As wikipedia tells us:
It looks really sore and I'm sure those kids will never forget it. Imagine the damage that's been done between parent and child when violence is introduced.
Do you think the father did the right thing?
Look who's leaving
There's some sort of awards ceremony going on at a high school. It's clearly been going on for too long and some parents are leaving. The principle says "look who's leaving, all the black people!". This causes an uproar which then does cause all the black people to leave. In a subsequent interview, the principle blamed the ordeal on Satan.
Do you think she was making a fair observation, or was she being racist?
Conclusion
I think I got rejected by the same person twice. I'll write a long-winded post about it soon. Oh well, I think I need to learn to get over it. She doesn't have feelings for me, and that's the deal. Tune in next time when we discuss the DC Snipers.

The second one was justified. The only people who don't think spanking works are childless and mentally ill which coincidentally is exactly like the researchers who made the studies and that work in a joke of a field undergoing a replication crisis.

The reason that corporal punishment is linked to behavioral issues is that crazy violent r-slur parents make crazy violent r-slur kids.
If you use spanking sensibly and in moderation, it's fine.

The venn diagram of people who believe in spanking sensibly and the circle of people with the braincells required to spank responsibly are two separate circles.
The venn diagram of people actually capable of spanking sensibly and also smart enough to come up with better non violent solutions is a single circle.

Fr, if you teach solve your childs behavioral issues with violence they will associate violence with being a solution to their problems. Take the kids xbox/cellphone. Make them dig a ditch in the yard. Force them to read and explain a boring book to get their shit back. Violence only begets violence.

Sometimes violence also begets good loot but that's besides the point.
Read and explain a boring book sounds neat.

How do you achieve any of those things without violence

Technically nobody does because "violence" has a massive range, but most people don't view groundings or loss of entertainment that way. Should taking the xbox result in a physical altercation from the child then the dad absolutely can only enforce it by overpowering the child. That is "violence", yet it does not have to be a beating. Belting the kids at that age will just make them better thieves.
