When I say "jump" you say "how high?"

The catchphrase of boomers in particular, possibly coming from the movie "Stripes" is a phrase that fuels their narccisim and the outcome being they wonder why their kids and grand kids go No Contact and abandon them or throw them into homes and abandon them.

The idea is you are supposed to question an order not act in blind subordenation. They just say "JUMP!" being confused you ask "How high and why?"

Boomers comically use the phrase "If your friend jumps off a bridge would you follow?" fueling more of their hypocisy.

You Have A Right To Say Whatever You Want To Say...

"But you don't have the right to make other people say it with you..." Say Ben Shapiro
Hym "So you DON'T have a right to use theft, stalking, and gaslighting to make me say you kids lives have value and they don't deserve die or Jews good and not literal Nazi. Fantastic. So, I'm going to need that money from both my labor and my property and the only way you are not going to pay me is if some kids die for this. So, my rights NOW... OR... Your kids rights will be revoked. You Have A Right To Say Whatever You Want To Say... About me getting my money... And I'm sure you will. I genuinely can wait to see it. But, in the mean time, Jews bad! Hilter was right! If Hilter succeeded how would have ended racism once and for all. Your kids are shit. When they die it heals the world. Retards bad. All of them. I (exclusively) should be allowed to rape women."

You could say that

Sadly, Keith's Aunt Connie was yet another you-don't-say-tality, which is more evidence that you should see a cardiologist before visiting a boulangerie.
