You cannot rebuild the traditional family, or a normal society with these laws in place. They’re evil as they’ve traded the family for more GDP.

I know you probably think you’re doing a good thing by championing these laws, but in reality, your support is aiding the degredation of the natural family.

It’s a terrible tradeoff we’ve made, but it can be reversed.



I haven’t championed anything, I’ve stated a fact. There do exist family subsidies, there do exist laws that protect against discrimination. The principle that these should apply fairly is one that doesn’t always make it into law, legislators being the easily corrupted we know them to be, but in this case every business needs to comply.

On top of that fact I’ve given my own opinion - that I would be happy to employ women and that I believe a mixed workplace can outcompete ones wholly made up of men. Nowhere did I mention rebuilding the traditional family nor any other corollary.

I think you should stick to the arguments presented to you instead of inferring too much, much like the inference that because a guy might prefer working with other men that he’d prefer to work solely with other men. If you want to know my intentions it’s best you ask but I can tell you that they go as far as “I can outcompete you” and “I think you’re wrong” but no further.


I did not mean to imply that you championed anything, and I think you would certainly outcompete me. You’d have 2x the labor pool to pull from.
