I was just thinking that the family started to be destroyed a century ago or so. How can conservatives speak about 'family' when a regular kid spends 6-8 hours a day learning mostly useless stuff and being indoctrinated at school, plus the time spent going and coming, then ~2 hours a day of extracurricular activities, plus another 2 hours of homework and the only interactions with parents are talking about your 'progress' at school and then 'it's time to brush your teeth and go to sleep'?
The current state of society is the result of what has been built during many decades. Maybe the wokies are just finishing the job so that real families (not the fake version promoted by traditionalists) can be reborn from the ashes. Burn it to the ground. Creative destruction, they say.

I remember that more than 25 years ago I wrote a major paper at university on the subject of the decline of the family and the rise of social insurance. The thesis was that social insurance actually wanted to compensate for the mental and caring tasks of the family and in this way destroyed this fundamental structure.

You saw the signs so many years ago. I saw the signs as I was a kid, now it is more prevalent.
