    I feel this one. In my teens and twenties the thought of having a kid terrified me, probably because I knew a lot of people who had kids waaaaaay before they were ready.

    Now a lot of times I wonder who's going to bury me.

      I didn't really "get it" til I watched my buddy who is a screwup like me raise his kid. That kid is absolutely amazing and the thought of raising a little communist is just too cool lol.

        Hmm I get what you're saying, but I always have to think about Pete buttichug and how his gramsci scholar dad probably had high hopes

          I have kids and I'm trying to raise them into communists. They're still young so we have to see how they turn out. Although I don't know what happened with Pete and Kamala in their childhood, my guess is that their parents did not practice their ideals at home. You can't preach the democracy of every workplace around the world while being an authoritarian in your house. But there's also a subjective dice roll that comes with everything as well. Maybe their parents did a great job and Pete and Kamala just suck.
