The Ethics Of Teenage Political Opinions

fight the power man. i remember the moral decay of 2018 where actual monsters were following and even quoting some of the survivor twitter accounts.

I think the general argument is that we must silence young women to protect them from themselves. Also, they shouldn’t say bad things about the grownups in their lives no matter how terrible those people are, because that’s not the place of a young lady.

I don’t agree with Clovis but his argument made a lot more sense than the paraphrases in the last few posts.

I wasn’t even thinking of your posts when I made that post above, it’s not about you, it’s about welcoming our new Mod, Skydiver8.

Jeez calm down Sir. :beers:

lol amazing you post her tweet when this morning you were telling me her tweets should be off limits after I posted her tweets

And your comment was the reason this dumbass convo started earlier lol

im confused. are greta thunberg tweets now outlawed on UP?

the only conversation i saw lately was those idiots saying a 15 year old can consent to rape in the Epstein thread, if there was some other conversation about tweets from a 15 year old not being allowed to be posted here…wut?

My thoughts too. Maybe he is trying to show how she will be bullied.

Earlier in the trump thread I posted a couple tweets made by Claudia (deleted the contents of the post) and riverman came thru saying it should be off limits and the conversation lasted for 20 or so posts now it popped back up because more stuff by Claudia has been posted

I thought all the kids were on SnapTok these days. I consider myself fairly competent with the internet for a 40something but my daughter and her friends are on a whole other level. I’m sure young Miss Conway will be fine with her public tweets being discussed publicly, and tbh I’m sure both her parents are also enjoying the attention.

Kids like this are our future and give me hope for this world. Borderline child abuse to demand the Conways aka Kellyanne aka Trump be allowed to silence her.

The victims at Stoneman Douglas would also be outlawed by clovis’s logic as well since many who posted about it were under 18.

i have no idea why it wouldn’t be posted

also back to skydiver’s point that if her name was Claude Conway and was still 15, absolutely NO ONE would have objected to reposting her tweet

If you think this is egregiously awful, how did you feel about the let’s burn down Tucker Carlson’s house even if his family are at home posts on 22?

The arguments weren’t clear at all but I didn’t feel like arguing much because it was dumb as hell and I just posted it as a joke so I deleted the tweets

It all started here if you want to go read over it

I think kids of famous people that mostly just act like other kids and occasionally say something political should be ignored by everyone. Which is what I initially thought was the case here. But it seems pretty clear that’s actually not the case, and she has every right to call out her mom if she wants to.

I say good for her to assert herself as her own person who is not beholden to them or their views just because they conceived her. People like Louise Menche are telling her RESPECT YOUR PARENTS THEY LUV YOU. That is ridiculous bullshit. The Strict Father mentality can die a quick death along with the GOP. They deserve precisely zero respect simply for being her parents. Claims to the contrary fall into the fallacy that power and respect are intrinsic to a hierarchy where father, mother, children must defer to each other in that order.

No. We are not going to wokescold ourselves into total rhetorical and discursive impotence, which it’s becoming more and more clear is your all-but-explicit goal.
