No THIS POST is a psyop to help normalise the idea of generational family living at home again so that we'll swallow the ungodly recession and poverty that will be brought upon the entire working class; should we not agree, as a global unit, to Tax the rich and restore wealth to the Government, Middle and Working classes and out of the hands of Billionaires. Fuck this post.
i suppose you're one of the people who insists that they are always right solely based on the fact that "it has always been like this". i.e. you claim "it's natural that we all live in individual houses", though that's actually a fallacy:
people are naturally tribal animals and we used to live in rather large groups of around 30 people or more for most of human history. it's an incredibly young thought that people live in 4-person homes. (i couldn't track down the exact time when this started but it must have been sometime within the last 200 years, i guess.)
what are your actual arguments in favor of the single-family home?
I don't think we should incentivise single family homes but I also thing people shouldn't be stuck living under the ownership of their parents. You know it won't be an equal relationship even after age 18 the dominate continues as long as the dependence does
Yeah. This is ignoring the fact that not only did they live in the same house, but also the adults used to have the absolute authority over their children. Living standards changed and it's okay. Even now, my parents dread me living with them as an adult because that would mean me never becoming fully independent.
