      It’s quite sth to both communicate “We are 100% here for you no matter what” and “We won’t buy your shit, but you can hang with us and cry and be a sincere babby”

      I mean, it's not like there's a malicious spirit behind it I'm not sure there *can* be genuine malice until a kid is quite a bit older I'm not entirely sure what it would mean for a kid to be genuinely malicious in a way that made it useful to model them as such 🤔

      and I say this as someone with a lot of experience with the kind of kid who genuinely does try to do things to upset their adults, and admits it I'm not entirely sure what the best approach is for those kids, but the strategy "model child as fully agentic malicious actor"...

      ... just seems to drive the caregivers insane, IME modeling them as precious innocents who only need Love *also* drives caregivers insane, so 🤷‍♀️

      they’re literally little fuckers plugging away at the human game like the rest of us but with fewer cognitive layers and a lot more CUTE

      everyone operates from a place of fundamental sincerity, but the gap between that fundamental sincerity and expressed behaviour is smaller with less-cognitively layered babbies

      > everyone operates from a place of fundamental sincerity I mean, have you met @eigenrobot? ...well, I haven't; but his Twitter definitely strike me as sincere insincerity (no insincere sincerity).

      imo... Sincere insincerity: https://twitter.com/eigenrobot/status/1367211114627407875 … Insincere sincerity: it's insincerity, but specifically the sort of insincerity which, in the social drama, is supposed to come across as sincere

          I think my issue is that irony is complex insincerity that purposefully hides the insincerity in the complexity, thus tricking yourself too eventually
