>>You are missing the point by conflating two points. It is meaningless to say “sometime after his birth” because that misleadingly implies that it was very soon after. That kind of unclear, crappy, deliberately misleading language is what the Dems do, and our side should not do it.
Re blaming it on divorce - it’s ridiculous. The other brother didn’t become a mass murderer. My godson didn’t become a mass muderer. Hundreds and thousands of men raised in single parent homes did not become mass muderers.

So, the problem is with my choice of “sometime after birth”?? OK. then, let’s change it to “sometime in his childhood, his parents selfishly got divorced”. Does that work? Can I be on “our side” again?

Or is the real problem that I gored your ox by blaming dysfunctional kids on divorced parents? Are you a “single” mom?

No, I am not a single mom. And no, you did not gore my ox. I think divorce is terrible. But I also think it’s ridiculous to blame his mental illness on divorce.
