‘Degeneracy’ is just a dogwhistle

“regulated” doing a lot of heavy lifting

I do agree that abandonment is cringe.

On their own journey, I’d be wary of introducing my own biases.

I feel that easily could’ve been excluded from the comic either for the author’s narrative, or simply to keep it a 3 panel. Could also just be alone time to process.

Sharing your beliefs with family is pretty common. Would you not want your relatives to reflect the way you see the world?

Just because it’s going against the generational direction doesn’t make it somehow wrong.

Nor is making a relative upset necessarily wrong.

Now, freed from the expectations, worldview, and belief systems of a religion, she is able to choose her own way of living?

I don’t really see how this is a negative. Religion gives easy, comforting, often bullshit answers to difficult questions. Who are you supposed to be? What’s the right thing to do? How should you treat others? What happens after I die?

Honestly I initially interpreted the comic as a joke about the dichotomy of how the son would feel good about it but it’s a lot of emotional processing for the mother.

?

Lmao. What an unbelievably stupid rule. “Just pretend everyone is cool even if they’re a total loser or whatever”
