@texaslawhopefully: Not necessarily but I believe what Aristotle used to say. He used to say you could not have a functioning political system if you can not get gender relations right. Or essentially that.
KS does negotiate! I got an email saying theyre doing it for the first time this year
its rather limited but its not nothing

@HopefullyInLawSchool: noted, thanks for the intel. I know we joke around but all things conidered, KS is goated

@BigStrongBug: Nah aristotle only applies gender as a role which I think either sex could fulfill. My issue with Trump's EO to limit things to only sex but I am fine with him doing it for now.
Yeah and Aristotle old as hell boy he would’ve died of hysteria after learning what the internet and tiktok is

@SplitterusClitterus: I think some school shootings could have been prevented if gender relations were better.

@SplitterusClitterus: Well, I would say almost every one of them. Either due to more stable households, community connections or even better treatment of those going through divorced and whatnot. Almost every shooter has at least one of these elements included with their reasons for killing.

@Dkk: No. Aristotle said the family was the fundamental political unit, which is different than what you're saying. But, more to the point, the American political system exists vis-a-vis to 17/18th century political thought, or classical liberalism. Of which the central assumption is that the highest end is social choice.

@Dkk: Yes, and he never said what you said he said. The closest he gets to that is that the family is the fundamental political unit.
