Has two working parents becoming the norm had a part in creating the SJWs of today?

Saw this and thought for a second.

No, like most SJW's, she's a spoiled shite who had two wealthy parents and likely lived in a lilly-white part of the country.

She fits the stereotype perfectly.

Not really more likely single mother households.

Spoiled kids that think they are privileged and mis-attribute it to race, not realizing there’s a lot of poor as shite white kids in this country

I don't think so. My parents and my wife's parents both worked throughout our lives and we're both conservative. It's all about the values you show to your children.

This is obviously a gross over-simplification but, generally I think kids fall into one of three categories:

- Got their asses ignored
- Got their asses kissed
- Got their asses beat/yelled at

With two working parents making good money, a lot of the parenting got translated to a mix of the first two groups for millennials. Empty praise or bought off with cheap shite (new phone, new shoes, new video game) and no real disciplining was done because the parents were too busy being career focused or self-focused. So the kids got this warped message: if I do something, at best I get rewarded/praised (whether its actually deserved or not) and at worst, I get ignored...either way there's no bad consequences for being a little shite. Thus, we all turned into soft little shits.

Nope, just another excuse. Most all of the families I grew up knowing in the 70's/80's had both parents working full-time.

This is also correct.

My wife and I both work a good bit, and my oldest, who is now starting to get into politics, knows his daddy was once a staunch Democrat.

It’s easy to see how the OP happened. She lived a earthly, sheltered life which allowed her to attended whatever private liberal arts college she wanted. She can write about women’s injustice as a career because she doesn’t have to worry about actually making income.

It’s not having two working parents, it’s having money and growing up coddled that’s leads to SJWs.

Women in the workplace has been bad for everyone. It lowered everyone’s wages. Family income didn’t really go up. And now you have to pay for childcare. Definitely bad for the family and the country.

Elizabeth Warren actually wrote a book on this back when people were allowed to be honest about things, believe it or not.

Tucker talked about it

I think the collapse of traditional values has been bad for us, and in that sense, yes.

Damaged people raise damaged people.

That was such a good point.
