of course. so we should hurt them without their permission, consent or involvement. Why, exactly?
edit: Because I'm not sure you've actually read the article: The scenario here is that these idiots want to have an official government notification sent to every adult currently aware of their adoption status saying "You're adopted"
literally. Among its 39 recommendations, Broken Bonds, Fractured Lives recommended the WA government notifies all adult adopted persons not already aware of their adopted status. A system of automatic notification would be the first of its kind in Australia.
the timeline of the forced adoption process they're talking about is 1940's to 1980, mostly the former So we're talking about absolutely destroying a friggin' 60, 70, 80 year olds entire sense of self for...what, exactly?
This is cruelty on a mindboggling scale. And you persist in defending it when there's literally alternatives being proposed right there.
I don't think obscuring the truth because people will react badly to it is a worthwhile endeavor. How people choose to react to the truth is up to them, they deserve it regardless. What these people are feeling is the emotional culmination of Australia's horrific history known as "the stolen generation." We would all be happier to forget it. we shouldn't though.
You've objectively stripped any and all empathy and humanity from your position. I am leaving this conversation
Objectively? You sure about that?
