Did not expect “I should be able to pay working class women to risk their health, rather than do my own dusting” to be a hill for people to die on.

I mean like when they try to get you to become a parent they argue the exact opposite, that being a parent makes you an overall better and more empathetic person toward the whole world, it makes you a truly responsible adult

I have a 2 year old, and my wife is due to give birth to our second any day now. It is very stressful and difficult trying to keep our house clean right now. But the idea that this is some impossible burden is transparently pants-on-head ridiculous.

I kind of get the impression that having a kid is the first time a lot of people actually gave a shit about *anyone* but it's just empathy for that one person, not for anyone else.

I feel like a lot of people who become suddenly and accidentally conservative and selfish when they become parents argue that it's the first time their concern for another person was *real* and *concrete*, like the progressive slogans they believed before were just abstract

Just FYI I don’t employ a cleaner, nor would I ask one to come into my house during a pandemic. I am cleaning my own house. My comment was that Jones claimed we all have more time which is very far from true. But thanks for also assuming you know how other people’s lives operate

Jones said IF YOU HAVE THE PRIVILEGE TO AFFORD A CLEANER YOU HAVE THE PRIVILEGE TO DO WITHOUT WHILE THERE IS A PANDEMIC It is breathtaking that this extremely mild statement has become so controversial, like I feel like coining "Jones Derangement Syndrome"

I feel like I have *more* empathy since becoming a parent tho? Like I had NO IDEA how scary and stressful it can be but now I get it and want the world to be better for everyone's kids
