The Amish make it work though.

Can't hate on that.

bc they're Dutch

it'll work in an ethnically, culturally, and religiously homogenous group

<:OwO:519747712497876993>

the thing is with the Amish they've also never had to defend their land/culture

which I know they could but that also contributes to it

Yeah. Protected by the state.

not like Mormons who had to fight for it

~~I wish they won~~

I wouldn't describe Mormons as anarchist, at least from what I know of them.

Which isn't that much.

no they're not anarchist but I meant that they had their own unique culture

they declared themselves a city-state

and had to defend it

Yeah.

I was watching that documentary The West on Netflix a few months ago.

And one of the Mormon chicks was talking about how multiple wives is inherently feminist.

Sorta

Because the women work in shifts to please their husband so it frees up more of their time.

feminist is a wide net

It cracked me up.

Never heard that one before.

Dealing with men is labor.

Sounds about right

About the response I expected.

I mean like you could make the argument

it's sort of like the Mosuo in China, where the women do the work and raise the kids

and the guys go fishing all day

<:boomer:519747941955797002>

Yeah literally

it never hit me how degenerate boomer fathers are until the other day

like I always knew but the reason why never stood out to me

the obsession with solitary activities and lifestyles

mowing the lawn, grilling, football, never going to Sunday mass

During one of my acid trips I had a realization that boomers are the ultimate in historic aristocracy.

Right

The world's largest aristocratic class ever.

Had the entire world bankrolling their lifestyle.

it's so intrinsic to American society that you never realize how fully weird it is
