In the '80's, I began to notice that many sitcoms were presenting the father as a disinterested, out of touch, buffoon.
Of course the "savior" dad at the time was Bill Cosby, and we saw what a lying farce that was.
No where was the depiction of the father who busted his ass every week to put food on the table for his indoctrinated brats, $100.00 sneakers on their recalcitrant little feet, and mom was always played as the hero.
This kinda rankled me back then, having no idea it was part of a great big agenda of the left.
The dynamic was clear, but I thought I was imagining it, as our "father" was not the buffoon and moron depicted on *tv. I was naïve enough to think it was being presented as "comedy"
As society became aware of women not being recognized as contributing human beings, with a totally different but complimentary set of gifts and abilities, the pendulum was shifted to favor the women. Even well after the "women's movement", the attack on men continues in earnest by the left.
*the greatest tool invented for indoctrination of the masses ever invented.
Just think of all those little jingles you can rattle off the top of your head of products. What you cant consciously recall, is all the other BS that was absorbed.
All those "women's afternoon talk shows" millions glued themselves to, were target rich environments.
"Sally Jesse, Oprah, Ellen, they understand me!" Not to mention "the soaps" another immersion in dysfunction portrayed as glamour.
Me, although I was blessed enough to be a stay at home mom, I found them off putting.. kinda plastic /phony, and was more than likely sewing clothes, reading or digging around the yard with my plants.
