      parents are tyrants. "parent" is an oppressive class, like rich people or white people.

      It's a pretty straightforward take—parents have absolute power over their children and having absolute power over another human being is a priori oppressive. It's not even hot unless you think this would be the ideal model of existence even if there could be any other way.

      Yeah it's one of those silicon valley "professional clever person" takes where they're like "we should aggregate knowledge in a free at point of access location" and people are like "yes. You're describing libraries." He's saying "water is wet" in the form of a hot take.

      So which is it, is it so obviously true it's a dumb hot take or so obviously false it's a dumb hot take Most of the people piling on him don't seem to really be on board with the former

      My point of view is entirely clear. He's "clever man"-ing a truism. I'm sure some people think actually parents don't have power over their kids and those people are wrong. Perhaps you should argue with those people!

      He is clearly not just saying that, he is saying that this is a morally negative situation that should be fixed Which is a position so far from obvious that people are attacking it as monstrous and anti-human (as they did with Engels)

          It seems like few thoughtful people find the statement “parenting can be abusive and is oppressive” controversial. Noah’s arguments that it is 1) inherently abusive, 2) that it should be fixed, but 3) that there isn’t a fix, is what’s getting people riled up.
