Are you reading over what you’re writing?!

Yes I am very aware of what I'm writing.

You’ve come very close to telling a complete stranger on the internet that they’re acting as a sexual abuser does towards their kids.

You are creating a straw man of what I said. I never accused you of anything remotely close to that. Don't put words in my mouth. You don't have to be a sexual abuser to hurt kids. There are many seemingly minuscule and silly ways that one can do that. I have already clarified this above.

They’re happy

This is what matters after all. I'm very happy for them, for you and your family.

It calls to mind Elon Musk calling that cave diver a paedophile when he couldn’t get his way.

There's a huge difference. As you said, he did it because "he couldn't get his way". He did it because of his ego and because he wanted to "get back" at the diver by insulting him. My harsh comment above was because your views are dangerously authoritarian in my opinion. I and the people that I love have had to go through a lot of pain because of individuals who share similar views. I absolutely cannot stand anyone promoting such views, which is why I have been extremely offensive.

Thank you for doing good things like risking your life to provide disaster relief and whatnot. Thank you for volunteering at the community groups and stuff. Remember, I am not calling you a bad person. However, just because you are a "good person", it doesn't make you immune from doing bad things, knowingly or unknowingly. If you talk to Republicans, many of them are not as villainous as one would imagine. Many of them volunteer for church and are overall very sweet people to be around. However, either because of their prejudices or sheer stupidity, such people knowingly or unknowingly promote genocide, don't they? They make the lives of millions of people a lot more miserable, don't they? So my point is, sweet and nice people can do quite fucked up things. Which includes you and me.

As for my argument above, I am very confident that I am not just barking at you blindly. I have made my position very clear in my previous comment and I stand by it. The pain that the policies you promote has brought on people around me and myself, is far far far greater than the pain that my comment might have brought on you. Hence, I won't delete anything. I'm sorry.
