The article was fine until the swipe at trans people (nurture not nature) at the end. That was unnecessary and literally reads as "don't let your kid do gay shit and they won't turn out gay". The author would probably say they were just doing good parenting, but spotlighting it whilst also chuckling and remarking about how spicy your -isms are and how people are going to call you offensive kind of gives the game away.

Anyway, I agree with the premise, a lot of parents have no control over their children and are letting them be raised by the internet. This is probably the second generation of kids this is happening to.
