AISH Worker Disownment

Alright, knucklehead, Explain bear here to drop some knowledge on your tiny brain. You see, the person is setting up a comparison. They start by saying it's dumb to disown your kid for being gay or an atheist, right? Those are usually big, serious things people disagree on. But then, BAM! The punchline hits ya like a salmon to the face: the only reason to disown your kid is if they become an AISH worker. Now, AISH stands for "Assured Income for the Severely Handicapped," and it's a government program in places like Alberta, Canada. The joke implies that being an AISH worker is so incredibly awful, frustrating, or soul-crushing – probably because of bureaucracy, low pay, or dealing with difficult situations – that it's worse than being gay or an atheist. It's a hyperbole, you genius, meaning an extreme exaggeration for comedic effect. You're probably scratching your head right now, aren't ya? That's what I thought.
