My entire life - ever since I was like seven years old - I'd been told that I was childish and naive because my solution to homelessness was 'give people homes' and my solution to poverty was 'give people money' Decades later, dozens of studies international prove me right but it's still 'childish'
Neilly from the Leftist Cooks (She/Her)@neillyleftistcook.bsky.social · 7h agoPeople seem to understand that it is epistemic vandalism to associate childishness with egalitarian ideals - wealth tax, living wage, housing for all etc - but can't quite seem to get it that it is also epistemic vandalism to see childishness, and children, as bad things in the first place.
