Okay so the whole "children informing on parents" stuff has become a right-wing outrage meme, and I gotta say If you intend to call on bonds of loyalty and love to keep yourself out of trouble, you also need to not threaten lethal violence You don't get to use both approaches
Like, I think you *shouldn't* threaten to kill your kids in general, because that's, you know, bad karma But while some abusive dads may have completely normalized this kind of relationship with their kids, *springing* the death threats on them in a panic is just bad tactics
Like yeah if you threaten me with a gun because the FBI's after you I may have to turn you into the FBI *just for doing that* *As self-defense* Sheesh Use your head dude
I mean yeah The idea that people are pushing themselves to reenact some kind of drama or script rather than acting based on their rational self interest goes back at least to Freud
