Completely agree with the "deny your duty" aspect there. The argument he makes would be pro-abandonment in general. If it feels good for me it must be good enough morally for me to do.
I also don't even agree its a strictly left/right thing, and more a in-group/out-group thing or even just the bullshit "found family" vs. actual family. Modern people regardless of politics are far more willing to just toss family out in favor of people they have self selected as family, with lefties still the more likely of anyone to do that self selection. The amount of lefties I've seen create problems at home, then leave and go no-contact, is vast and ever growing. They "get it intuitively" because they have no respect for the institution that is the family and would rather opt for whatever is easiest and better for their current feelings. There are situations where it's moral to do this, but the amount of people who do it over pronouns or Trump or whatever, is insane and pretty vile.
I'm not around my family cause I'm a hermit and that's not a good thing but I'm not gonna act like I've got some enlightened sense of morality or something over it.
Yeah heh heh, but it's easy to say when it's the kids being indoctrinated against their parents, why nobody gives a shit about the flip side of the coin, stupid dumb baby boomer parents who actually got captured by the woke left and make their children's life miserable, hell, my younger sister is a damn intersectional leftist feminist by ignorance (we are Mexicans) and his husband is a well meaning but ultimately weak and unmasculine guy who sure, knows to code and makes good money working on the web, but he is also a retarded leftist too and weak of mind with no real character of it's one and thinks that standing up for himself and not being a walking doormat is "toxic masculinity".
I saw him getting bitched by my sister for something that was her own damn fault regarding my young niece! And she berated him about it, and he just accepted it like a "respectful good modern man" (a coward), made me feel so bad about it.
And of course he believes Trump is evil and the Nazis were Right Wing, and when I actually tried to explain him once, all he did was literally go NO U mirroring my points in a "oh yeah, well the right is bad because YOUR POINT BUT FLIPPED cause I didn't truly out any tought or effort into it".
And he thinks the Nazis and Hitler were Right Wing.......
And I realized, these were really not good people in the making, and they had a young child..........my niece.
I fully admit I USED to be a libtard leftist by default by pure ignorance and bad luck of growing in the wrong culture and country, Mexico, a country that was always socialist and therefore, mediocre.
