Because this post is typical Reddit social propaganda and is total bullshit.

There's a certain quota of posts to be expected per day about allegedly creepy or abusive parents, just as there's a certain quota of posts every day to suggest that normal feelings or experiences are really signs of "buried" trauma or having been abused. Social media in 2022 is designed to make people suspect terrible things about family members, to identify as victims, to cultivate hatred, and to disconnect from loved ones.

Many people have figured out that the political boards are thickly propagandized with astroturfing in order to divide us and make us hate one another. Fewer have realized that the social boards are just as manipulated and are designed to create suspicious, angry, hateful people and a sense that nobody can be trusted. All parents on Reddit are monsters, all children are victims, and no post that points out the absurdity of a post or suggests compassion or trying to work through a problem rather than condemning the monsters involved or pitying the victim will ever go unchallenged or fail to be downvoted.

Why? Because social media in 2022 WANTS you to be paranoid, hateful, and lonely. Why? Because despairing populations disconnected from their sources of love and support are much easier to control and manipulate.
