Well...
I get what you're saying, I really doi also thinknits a really bad idea.
I've been seeing people banishing "the cazies" for like 3 decades now from Internet fora and I've been saying from the start that this will only breed bigger and bladder crazies. When with "us", we can ground them and avoid them going full retard. When we banish them, they will join together in some other place where they can make the rules themselves, breeding much worse crazies. The same goes IRL.
I've been seeing exactly this I've rthe past decades, crazies joining together and becoming a much bigger,such worse problem to handle.
Again, ibget your point but I'd rather have a crazy on a figurative leash where they can be controlled and stopped from iharming themselves or others, than crazies running wild
I don't disagree with your point overall, but there do seem to be plenty of kids that grow up despising their conservative parents' positions on politics. The question of whether they even want to spend time with their conservative family even implies this.
It's also possible that they will be the last person they'd listen to, since conservative families can have a lot of contempt for each other and care more about the hierarchy than who is right.
But that said, I fully agree that just cutting off people for being awful ends to driving them into the arms of other awful people. And if there's a lot of it, it can do things like get Trump elected because they are tired of being treated like the bad guys but get galvanized instead of discouraged.
It's also the goal of the divide and conquer strategy the ruling class is using to make us easier to manage.
Bladder crazies? Everything's going to smell like piss.
