How could you possibly read that as "buying their excuses" when the context is "don't give authoritianism excuses"? Did you make it past two words?
An authority doesn't need much to deploy secundum quid. That's arguably the most used tactic. It's part of the backbone of any authoritarian ideology.

We're so fucked, lol
Because it has nothing do to with parenting. You make a bizarre claim that there needs to be better parenting, when we both know that parenting has nothing to do with this.
You are suggesting, if I read what you said correctly that somehow they are able to get a foothold for these kinds of bills because of bad parenting. That is not true.
Because you're trying to work around their excuse. If it's not bad parenting, they'll find some other absurd reason. Don't even try to follow their nonsensical attempts to justify this invasion of privacy, that just gives them more fuel.
