Conservitism is the mindset of the selfish

It's cause she doesn't have the slightest notion of what it's actually like being poor.

And what was their genius solution to if the child's parents are shit? Remove even more of their support systems and leave them to die?

Sure love when innocent children are forced to pay the consequences of their parent's choices. Very ethical

She's not wrong - it is a parent's responsibility to look after their children. But like.. I'm still happy to feed a hungry child if it needs food. Because I'm not evil

She still insisted it’s the parents responsibility

Ok... and when the parents fail in that responsibility, we punish the children?

Next time just tell her nope actually Jesus said it’s YOUR responsibility.

They fail understand the importance. It is sad. And you're spot on. We shouldn't punish children for their parents shortcomings.

I know I don't have to tell you this. But for those that haven't experienced it from childhood.

I'm from a country with free school lunch. And I can assure anyone that it's so much more, than just the food. In the lunch room, everyone is an equal. Our teacher also ate with us. Same place. Same food. Same tables.

Everyone is an equal. It matters. That way you don't get people who grow up thinking they're above the rest.

It transcends into adulthood and your work life. Bosses, CEOs, managers, employees, engineers, sales, janitors, IT, etc. It's not uncommon at all that they all share a table at lunch. As equals.

Your teacher, your boss, they're not Mr. Andersson, Professor Lundqvist, Doctor Hansen. They're just Robin, Emma, Karl, Billy. And I sincerely believe, that all starts in school.

My mom married a rich guy when I was 11. That got us kicked off the free lunch programs, and the clothing closet.

So I didn’t eat breakfast or lunch from about 7th grade on. I’d get dizzy by the end of the day. It was the worst on days where I already felt a little sick.

I still have severely disordered eating.

I’m all for free school lunches, but where did you go to school where it was 8+ hours a day? I recall school being 6.5 hours

school years generally consist of a mandated minimum 900-1100 hours spread out over 160-180 days, with the typical school day being 5.5-6.5 hours. while there is considerable variation from state-to-state, no state 'requires' 8 hours a day.

"Fuck you, I've got mine" seems to be the mantra of a shockingly large number of people.

It actually does, but then one doesn’t like to offer the utilitarian argument for feeding children. If it has to be debated down at that level, the day is already lost.

Eat the rich.

Many of the cyclical culture war issues are largely manufactured by those in power to divide us.

Remove those in power.

Educate people away from hyper individualism.

As for specifics, I'm not totally sure, but this seems a general good place to start.

If we're going to bring religion into this, then let's talk about how the people leading these brain-rotted christians are often accelerationists.

"in the last times, some will depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of demons" isn't a warning for these fuck-nuggets, it's an instruction guide.

Animals are socialist and communist. I am capitalist. Capital rulezzzz!!

Giving free stuff to the rich == good!

Yes, it is made up, he even said as much and that’s why it’s sad. It’s sad because it should be like that and that should be then end of it. You have identified the entire point of the post so rest assured that they know what conservatives have to say and they know that it’s bullshit.

In the world where conservatives, well, don’t exist(the people do but the ideology is gone to the landfill where it belongs) all of the excuses and bungus follow-ups like stuff about the parents would just not be important or said.

"The argument SHOULD just go like this"

Nah, I've pretty much had this exact conversation with people before. Depending on how you frame the question, you generally will get this exact response.

They are not pro-anything, they are not even "pro-birth" as people often say because they don't allow for live saving procedures that could allow a mother to abort a non viable pregnancy and try again.

They are simply anti-abortion that's where their position starts and ends.
