I’m worried that if I legit stopped laughing about it, I’d become a gun statistic myself.
Big /s on this one. No suicidal or homicidal ideations, but man, am I floored by kindergarten rhymes about lockdowns and having gotten 2 lockdown notifications from my 11-year-olds school in last month (neither were active shooters but when the message subject is just "lockdown’ there’s that moment where you just don’t know)
We chose guns over them. I intend to tell my child that when they reach the age of reason. Some individuals like me did not, but overall society says that their ability to buy unlimited murder toys is more important than their life. That is what our society values. This is who we are.
I will tell them this because it is true, and they need to operate in the world as it is, not as I would like it to be. I will also tell them that is an example of how important it is NOT to allow what society believes to dictate what they believe, as most of what our society believes is cruel and exploitative, and I hope that’s not who they want to be.
