Ever since Barron Trump came of age as an adult, the entire conversation around him has changed. Even the staunchest critics of Barron’s father left the boy alone before he was 18, out of respect. And although I always thought it likely that he’d turn out to be, well, a Trump, I thought that was […]
I said nothing about taking pity on him, and definitely didn’t take it anywhere near becoming a monk. I didn’t even claim Barron would be a good person if he deviated from his father’s bullshit, I’m just putting out food for thought that he may have the potential to deviate.
And yea, laws consider him an adult at 18, but the body and brain are not finished developing.
Any way, my edited point was more about immediately suppressing an opinion that isn’t even all that controversial or impossible to occur. It’s reddit behavior, I said something incongruent with the hivemind, therefor it must not be discussed. If it was misinformation or just a straight up lie, then I get it. But that isn’t so.
Like I mentioned in the post, considering his brothers it’s not likely he will make a change, any way. However, he does have a different mom than the others, and growing up with a much different type of publicity. I have two half-siblings (we share a mom, diff dads). Just because we’re related doesn’t mean we have the exact same beliefs, or comprehend our parents’ words in the same way. My siblings live for money, I live in a forest and don’t talk to them at all.
Lemmy is worse when it comes to opinions that challenge the general consensus, that’s for sure. It comes from being really small even in absolute numbers, and community being separated at least between two big-ish camps, and people from both of these camps holding more or less homogenous views.
