Libertarians believe they're rebels, but they are really political children who scream through tears. http://ow.ly/JIYdi
@fredric_wertham @AlterNet @Petapup1 Yes, Mad Max would be the inescapable endgame of Lord-of-the-Flies "communitarianism". #HistoryRepeats

@emlynaddison Lord of Flies depicts inevitable endgame of leaving ill-equipped & unprepared kids alone in wilderness w'o adult supervision
-
@fredric_wertham Truth is, human societies do need supervision; libertarians (et al) just find this noxious. -
@emlynaddison What does your gut tell you about objectivists? They're the entitled kids who wanted ALL the candy & hated like hell to share
-
@fredric_wertham It's extolling all the great virtues of symbiosis while quietly drawing up plans for a private island. -
@emlynaddison Anyone who ever worked as a camp counselor knows that some kids are just BORN douchebags. Toughest kid will TAKE their candy

-
@fredric_wertham Yes, that's life. But the aim is hopefully to give all kids a good developmental grounding--enter early ed. efforts. -
@emlynaddison Too bad most of those GOP pricks will be educated in private schools where sense of entitlement will be affirmed & reenforced

@fredric_wertham@AlterNet@Petapup1 You know your authors. I checked out the Wertham wiki page--a Youth Apocalypse! Egads! -
@emlynaddison 1950s "juvies" were logical consequence of parents' post-war angst. There really weren't any horror comics till '49 then BOOM!

@fredric_wertham Interesting how youth has emerged as its own force--teen pop culture, now hackers, coders & media moguls.
