This Yearโ€™s Film to Fight Over: โ€˜Licorice Pizza.โ€™

Liberals want to pretend that life isnโ€™t as messy and as complex as it in fact is. Unfortunately, they want all of the rest of us to pretend that, too. Also, they want us to believe that the lifeways and the morals of right this very moment have always been true. Even worse, the PMC libs really like things that are easy to quantify, so they focus on that alone. That then conveniently allows them to excuse massive abuse elsewhere so they can concentrate on whatโ€™s easy to put in a spreadsheet. (That said, I think the age of consent is probably about right, though we should show more mercy and judge case by case, not the PMC method of spreadsheet jackassery.)

Another area where this applies is drinking age. My mom was a terrible and violent alcoholic. The drinking age for her shouldโ€™ve been 150. I handle alcohol fine and it wouldโ€™ve been ok for me to have a few drinks at 10 or 11.

Just idle thoughts. Life is messy. Ever will it be so.
