I was (probably at some point willfully) unaware of this most of my childhood, and it was more fun to think about than the real thing. I miss the days when I could make up my own answers to references. :p

For anyone unaware, this joke references a conflation of the Spock we all know and love with Dr. Benjamin Spock, who wrote some of the most prominent books on child rearing.

He had some decent political views, but his child-rearing advice wasn’t always very evidence-based.

Truth be told I’ve never really read up on him, I only recognized the joke because they make a similar one in the movie Captain Fantastic lol
