The highlight for me is coming up with some weird pseudoscience justification for why it’s okay to hit your kids.

    I believe it’s true of more or less any country: most people are pro-hitting kids until you ban the practice and it becomes obvious that it’s unacceptable (at least in overt discourse). Premier exemple of the educational potential of a law. (And now the right can pivot to racist rhetoric about which demographics don’t accept our rules and hit their kids.)
