Think of the impact of our understanding of childhood, (which accords a basic innocent to ALL people at least for some time) on questions like slavery, immigration, poverty... everything.
"Think of the children" has also been the rallying cry for some terrible ideas, because this idea of childhood is so deeply valued that anyone questioning it would be a monster.
And then there are the calls to treat some (mostly non-white ) children as adults in the legal system.
I've heard the concept of "childhood" described as a modern invention. And this seems to be true in the recent history of the US and Europe. In particular childhood is viewed as a time for growth a learning, and children are seen as entitled to protection so that this can happen.
The concept of childhood necessitates things like public education, basic social services, after all it is unreasonable to hold a child responsible as if they were an adult.
Every child deserves a chance.
I am not an ant pirate.
I was just talking about this.
@josh0@babka.social @cwebber@social.coop @Binder@petrous.vislae.town For the record I think ant smuggling sucks. There is the risk of invasive species which could wipe out local ants... but worse is the collecting in these often tropical countries isn't good for their ecosystem.

We live in the days with too little moderation but a lot of censorship. Lovely! I love it!
Why has anyone talked about banning tiktok in the US when kick exists?
This was... I don't even know. Bullying as entertainment. I don't understand what draws people to this sort of thing, I don't know if I have the bandwidth to understand or even if I want to.

LOL what? Now why would that be?
And why is it fine for Putin to fill our easy to influence and bamboozle president's head with nonsense without anyone around from Ukraine to say anything?
I do not think it's healthy for our president to be around that guy.
Whatever it is, nobody is going to mess with you if you are just straight pressing milk.
Yes. VERY.
I'm waling around the bronx with a gallon of milk.
As long as the croissants stay hidden? Still pretty bad ass.
I could see it going like:
Trump: Well, Vald, what they say and you know how they always say? they say to me they don't like "invasion" that They don't like about it all. I'm all for it but they do not like the "invasion"
Vald: Oh. Oh yes I see. They would say. You know "invasion"? Not such bad thing. Very useful. Power move.
Trump: Yes yes but they do not like it. Not one bit they do not!
Vald: No, it is power move. You should try. Greenland Venezuela. Very invigorating.
Both?

He's sent warships into international waters near Venezuela to be intimidating because of "drug cartels" (that can't be why it makes no sense)
