          3/ As a libertarian, I will defend everyone's right to learn what a loaded gun is by pointing it at their foot and mag-dumping As someone who's a member of a thousands-years-old-society I will say "we understood this in 2,000 BC, and you could have and should have known better"

          4/ Modern degenerate culture has lost concepts of sin and prudence, rediscovers the EXACT SAME PATTERNS, but then engages in a ritual where "no, no, you can't expect that we would have LISTENED, that's unrealistic. So, instead, let's recast this as a Wonderful Growth Journey."

          6/ Saying (implicitly) "it's unfair to expect me to have used my faculties ; you should realize that ALL OF US learn only sticking our dicks into the mousetraps" is an attempt to evade moral responsibility for what every reasonable person knows.

          7/ It's also a diffusion of responsibility. "It wasn't MY duty to not shop lift ; that's just a developmental stage people go through in their 20s." Sin / Redemption narrative is a lot more honest than Wonderful Growth Journey narrative.

          9/ Absolutely. If someone grows up on a hippy commune and has no exposure to ideas like "civilization is built on monogramy", they get some leeway. [ and this describes more and more of the youth in our degenerate, terminal stage "civilization" ]https://twitter.com/shlevy/status/1349071988137013250 …

          I am somewhat sympathetic to this for things less dumb than this example. To some extent as a kid you are in fact limited to the information your parents and teachers expose you to.

          There's also the flip side: It's unjust to those of us who *didn't* make the same mistakes, on our own merits.

          12/ I guess the reason that I'm most peeved about this is the negative externalities. Every one person with a bad meme about relationships, casual sex, etc. (a) has a chance of creating children who end up in a broken home, (b) same, except end up murdered in utero, >>>

          14/ Having Just One One Night Stand, or Engaging in a Throuple Until I Grew Up And Learned Better is like soliciting just one bribe, or throwing just one can of used motor oil in the river. The marginal effects may be pretty minor, but the cumulative effects aren't.

          26/ Rich white kids Experimenting With Relationships throws off negative externalities in another way: they often CAN get away with it, without life-wrecking damage. You can go through a poly phase for 5 years and bc you're highly conscientious, no one gets pregnant.
