Corporal punishment should be light and always the last resort (ie you tried everything and he/she still continues and refuse to comply).
I may had maybe between 20-40 slaps in my whole childhood and I'm fine, maybe there are 4-5 which were too promptly given but I have never been brutalized and I'm doing fine.
The problem is libtards are zealots. Physical pain is not absolute evil to teach, we all learnt by pain at a point so why that is morally wrong to learn by pain that other people have boundaries too ?
Anyway I still think you can raise most children spankfree but not every kid is the same, some are naturally flexible when other will push you to your limits.

There is no problem here. Parents are the same as filthy humans. They're not held on some special altar. Parents are stupid, poor, make mistakes, and evil all the while the intelligent child has to "deal" with the stupid parents because society tells you you're obligated to. Really... last I check society doesn't tolerate the stupid and evil so why should children have to tolerate stupid and evil parents?
Course, we could fix this by install things such as parenting license, but apparently that is evil and society thinks humanity will collapse if parents are regulated.

Dad never hit me
He took the belt and did that thing that made it make a loud noise, scared the living shit out of me. It's what I'm gonna do with my kids.

when people say 'spanking', do they mean exactly like in the picture, spanking them for 10 minutes? or just one strong slap in the butt? cause if it's the latter, i do it often

Bring back work houses and extract something of value from prisoners instead of wasting money on them.

Spanking is a really basic parenting tool for extreme circumastances. There are kids that will naturally behave enough that you won't need it, and if you have those, you are blessed, but for most kids, you will need something like that a few times during their youth. Especially for single kids, you may be the only person in their life they will seriously recognize, siblings tend to teach social rules well enough to each other so you should need it less. There is a lot of stuff related to this, like the difference between letting a kid sit in the bus and standing next to it, or sitting yourself and then sitting the kid on your lap. These teach the child very different things, but you see lots of bad parents to the former every day, which is far more harmful.
It should also pertain to moral issues, such as breaking stuff for fun, being violent with weaker kids or pets, or theft. You don't spank your kid because they got a bad grade in school.
It should specifically executed so that it is uncomfortable and embarassing, but has no lasting effects and they forget about it tomorrow morning. The purpose of it isn't executing house justice, that would be counterproductive, since often time the kids will consider doing something to be worth the minor punishment, which is the lesson you don't want them to learn. The purpose is simulating life choices in a sandbox, thus preparing your kids for life.
You also shouldn't imagine that it's reliably possible to bring up any child to be well-behaved, since they will be spoiled by more distant family members, pick up bad habits from other kids, see things on TV or vidya while you are away, and so on. Do your earnest to set them up to be good people, but don't try too hard.
tl;dr as with many things in life, they are okay in moderation ad there is a time and place for them

Oh you almost had me but then you went completely overt 6/10 bait, consider revising the ending.

Yes, I'm smarter than my parents. It doesn't mean I know everything, but there is no reason why anyone should be respecting someone dumber than you.
You don't respect niggers who go ooga booga and chimp out do you? It's no different.
