      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.

      Well, it's an outgrowth of one of his hobbyhorses, which is that children are a marginalized group and should be viewed as such through an intersectional lens (cf. the elderly), which is an idea leftists are typically unusually reticent to entertain

      Is that the case? I feel like child welfare legislation has always come from left / labor movements generally speaking - except in such cases as reactionary moral panic laws, which are never really *about* kids in the first place so much as using them as a rhetorical pawn.

      Well, you start to see the cracks appear when people start talking about things like lowering the voting age or allowing children informed consent re: healthcare A lot of leftists think that sort of thing is garbage

      Well okay let's Go There I don't think infants being routinely taken away from their biological parents and raised in state-run collective creches is likely to happen in the near future, and can see how any near term implementation of it is likely to be disastrous

          But I can see how a utopian future might have that as one of its core institutions and, in many ways, I think if we're serious about solving basic social problems it might be impossible to do so any other way But you can't even propose this without massive backlash

          The number of "leftists" even in radical spaces nowadays who will sign on to this vision of the future is tiny It's absolutely ingrained that this is a dystopian future, one of the worst things you can imagine the government doing, anti-human and anti-moral
