Children, working-age adults, and elders generally have different but equally important roles. Children are the future. Working-age adults reproduce, start families, and support those families and the wider community. Elders keep and dispense wisdom and help make decisions. To clarify you become a working-age adult once you reach puberty. #ageism #youth #youthlib #youthliberation #communism #socialism #anarchism
Young people are our equals and should be equal and free. Old people matter as people and wisdom keepers and dispensers. The time is now more than ever to abolish ageism. #ageism #youth #youthlib #youthliberation #communism #socialism #anarchism
People of all ages are mentally equal in the sense that we have instincts, drives, etc. that guide our decisions and make us fully capable of making our own decisions. Children and young adults (aka "adolescents") should therefore be free and autonomous. #ageism #youth #youthlib #youthliberation #communism #socialism #anarchism
Age-based social media bans are also about controlling the information young people see. Capitalists know that young people are the future and that they must control what they think. #ageism #youth #youthlib #youthliberation #communism #socialism #anarchism
