SO many things wrong with their viewpoint. So many. 'The whole point of a postmenopausal woman is to take care of kids' - don't tell the Iroquois confederation (you know, the ones who inspired our founding fathers when drafting the constitution?). There, women were involved in matters of war and peace, helped select chiefs, participated in councils and maintained the culture. They were also a matrilineal society; yet curiously, not known for a correspondingly huge supply of incel cucks.
Then there's the whole '10 percent of the men get 90 percent of the women'. Math, how does it work! Do they think 90 percent of the women belong to harems?! Presumably they're talking about attraction and not who actually winds up with who; but one should note this argument also applies in reverse (lots of guys all lusting after the same few hot chicks). Even here in the 21st, one has only to look around to see this isn't true. And even ugly guys can work on their personalities and hygiene to increase their chances.
Gah. Sorry, still on my first cuppa so the Don't Push the Rant Button switch isn't yet fully engaged.
This is all they have. Insults and complaints. No proposals for positive change and beneficial ideas. Is this all they have for a vision of America? Whining?? Just pathetic.
I hope Vance was able to get a solid 8 hours during that period one of hardship for his wife and her mother. Maybe with one of those fancy alarm clocks that slowly turns a light on so you ease out of REM sleep and feel more refreshed.
BTW, the MIL sounds like a goddamn SAINT, if you ask me.
Right? While reading this crap, I found myself wondering whether there was a new definition of “liberal” I had somehow missed. Because I’m pretty sure that valuing people based on the amount of money they make is a real conservative value.
Let me get this straight: Usha Vances' mother, a molecular biologist and provost at UC San Diego took off a year to attend to her grandchild? All of them... I've read he has 3, is that what he's saying here? That's at least 3 years. “Painfully economically inefficient,” Vance said. “Why didn't she just keep her job? Give us part of the wages to pay somebody else to do it? Right, because that is the thing that the hyper liberalized economics wants you do..." Did grandpa help? What exactly is grandma's job that she can take off for a year every time her daughter has a child? Hmmm. I guess he DID luck into that lovely family that has one good grandma. Or could he maybe be trying to make memaw a little more significant? So all the old ladies (and his MIL was not old) know their place in the new Project 2025 america?
“Why didn’t she just keep her job and pay for us to hire a nanny?” is just about the most entitled statement I’ve heard in a long time. And it completely brushes aside the facts that (a) she was the kid’s own grandmother and familial bonds are less transactional, generally speaking, and (2) she was of high enough status in her employment to be able to do such a thing with minimal harm to her career, particularly since she lived in the communist hell-hole of California.
She is a former Trump White House Director of Strategic Communications, and is the daughter of Joseph Farah, editor-in-chief of the right-wing website WorldNetDaily.
I’m about to be post menopausal but I have no grandkids. Don’t worry though- I have dogs, a career, plenty of hobbies that I’m really good at, and a life.
How is that a man born in 1984 thinks, 'I thought women too old to be attractive to me were useless, but it turns out they can still be my servants in another way!'
So according to that diagram, both women who are boring and ugly and those who are good looking and interesting are going to have trouble finding partners/getting laid.
As will most of the boring and ugly men.
So maybe these people could use all their spare time, of which they should have plenty, to pursue their own interests and activities, maybe even sportsballing and exercising and such, and then they would as a useful side effect, become more beautiful and interesting.
Except for that interesting and good looking woman up there in the corner. She should just go have fun. Maybe they could all buy an island together and go windsurfing every day, break their nails, get windburned and their hair could get coarse and sunburned and then they, too could find True Love.
I am a hopeless romantic, which I why Darth Trad got mated off with Miss Cassowary NZ.
Funny how, when his wife needed to go back to work, and someone had to stop working in that big bad money economy in order to look after the kid, the other parent of that kid didn't consider doing it.
This came out just as I had to leave the house(!), something I try to never do. I am 𝑠𝑜 off my game today, having overslept. I'm about to dig into this - some Robyn is just what I could use.
"So he loved the fact that his mother-in-law was able to come stay with him for a year, but hates the things that allowed her to do that in the first place."
More like "he hates the fact that this might benefit any families *other* than his own".
Because every Republican knows, there's nothing worse than letting the poors enjoy anything good that a Republican might get.
It’s all so infuriating.

Curious about these disaffected young men. Is this a large group?

Wait.
Working and making money is now a liberal idea?

Keep talking, JD.
I’m about to be post menopausal but I have no grandkids. Don’t worry though- I have dogs, a career, plenty of hobbies that I’m really good at, and a life.
How is that a man born in 1984 thinks, 'I thought women too old to be attractive to me were useless, but it turns out they can still be my servants in another way!'
And is proud to tell us about it.

All of them, Katie!

Yep, and that little tyke dodged a bullet as a result.
Yeah, *not* being read whatever the hyper-neoliberal version of Goodnight Moon is was probably the best thing that happened to those kids.
Maybe the mother-in-law just came to look after her post-partum daughter after she realized what a useless douche her son-in-law is.
I wonder what it's like to sleep every night next to a man who told the world that he loves his wife even if she isn't white?
