We know one of the goals of commies is to destroy the idea of family. After all you can't be absolutely loyal to the state if you have other deep personal connections.
I was confused on that point for a while, because I noted that Disney movies all allegedly promote family, yes? Like the Carrie Fisher quote of saying, "It's all about family," in reference to nu-Wars. Except, there were almost no instances of actual, functioning families being shown in these films.
Then it clicked in place that they're not promoting real families, but the replacement of them with some fake "family" group. E.g. don't marry or have kids; get alienated from your parents and then join the Avengers and be an hero!
Real family bad because they might counteract your public school/media programming with their traditions and evolved unwavering loyalty! Satisfy your instinctual longing for a tribe of related peoples by instead pretending that some support groups for your mental illnesses are your family!
Oh yes, I've experienced a couple of variations of that, and both were intentionally abusive of the "family" thing by forcing people together and calling on subordinates to be unwaveringly loyal (as one would be in a real family) while superiors would say "I'm the cool dad, you can trust me" but continuing to behave worse than a normal corporate asshole, because at least the corporate assholes of the past were frank with it.
I should've mentioned that the goal is to not only replace the family with a debased and useless surrogate, but to use it to control people's behavior through peer pressure, because unlike natural families, friends are almost always fair-weather. Without a genetic bond (or even a community one, which is increasingly being destroyed by design), it's unlikely that people will stick together.
"Friendship is everything" "Friendship is magic" "You wouldn't want to do anything to lose your friends, your only family, would you?"
We're at the point now where many in gen Y say that they have no real friends or family, and social media is basically their entire social world. Imagine how that controls their behavior, as they feel they can only do what the influencers or followers like, or be called out by the only human contact that they have.
