Look I don't think, as an adult, you should talk shit on minors.

I think Youth need to be given an opportunity to become some one other than who our family told us we needed to be.

Dude you literally made the original post about him becoming a piece of shit... Or did you forget?

Also he's no minor. He's 18.

No I defended and advocated for not critisizing minors. I could find the response if Lemmy had decent search features. This was months (years) ago.

Also, he's no longer a minor; rip him apart.

Remember when Redditors, twittists, etc. Were working themselves up thinking that Melania and Barron and the rest of Trump's family secretly hated him and would leave him the second he left the white house? Turns out birds of a shit feather really do flock together.

Man, I was genuinely giving him the benefit of the doubt as long as I could, and of fucking course he had to not be worth it. I was trying not to be prejudiced, but I guess you can’t be surrounded by that level of psychopathy and not descend into some level of sociopathy, even if only initially as a defense mechanism.
