Well yes. If everyone allows that adults own their children, and the State owns the adults, naturally the State can behave as if it owns the children when it pleases it to do sohttps://twitter.com/literalbanana/status/996069471050547200 …

I was answering
@AMK2934, but this is reminding me to stay out of online arguments. -
oh wow, fucking twitter's piece of shit UI strikes again. So, apparently I have
@amk2934 muted (which I don't remember doing) but even better, twitter then renders the thread exactly as if you were replying to my tweet. no indication of missing continuity -
so 1, i'll unmute AMK bc i don't remember having a reason for that mute, and 2, yeah that's what happened. fucking hate twitter eliding shit like that, unbelievable
-
for example, now i can see this as well, whereas before i had no indication of anything until
@abecedarius's tweet just now made it obvious. guess i'll have to pay extra close attention to the possibility of this kind of thing...https://twitter.com/AMK2934/status/996114825964072960 … -
(I annotate my mutes for a reason. When I do housekeeping on the mutelist there's always additions I didn't intend. This is bc webtwitter has some terrible shortcuts, and often trivial or no indication they were invoked. The mute shortcut is probably the worst offender.)

So to repeat myself, what do you think of this? http://theanti-puritan.blogspot.com/2018/05/go-ocracy-alternative-republic.html?m=1 …

briefly lost the link there. I like it and I kind of think I have many things to say about it depending on what level I evaluate it at. It reminds me of some things I've read, and things I've said, and things I've sorta meant to try to say

I like how such things lampshade the arbitrariness of the game, rather than allow the game to become holy
