    How dare you give your kids an unfair advantage! Are all liberals this insane?


    bedtime stories should also be restricted

    One way philosophers might think about solving the social justice problem would be by simply abolishing the family. If the family is this source of unfairness in society then it looks plausible to think that if we abolished the family there would be a more level playing fieldWhat we realised we needed was a way of thinking about what it was we wanted to allowto allow

      Is having a loving family an unfair advantage?
      Oh my, yes. Some people in the past thought it so unfair that they tried to organize society so as many people as possible could get one.

        Yes, but you are putting the minority of kids who don't have a loving family at a disadvantage. So pull down and destroy the loving family. I mean really these people are more than insane.

          How thick are these people? Really these guys are philosophers? So they don't realise that by "levelling the playing field" it only serves to make those smarter kids dumber. It doesn't level anything all it does is bring down the average intelligence of kids in general. It's not going to boost those kids with lower intellects.

            These people are dangerous:

            What we realised we needed was a way of thinking about what it was we wanted to allow parents to do for their children, and what it was that we didn’t need to allow parents to do for their children, if allowing those activities would create unfairnesses for other people’s children

                This is modern liberal philosophy right there. It's not about "freedom" for people, it's about controlling people, even down to their own personal decisions.

                  If these people were smarter they would be wondering how they could boost the intelligence of the dumber kids rather than going about things backwards.

                    They were already doing that at the school I went to. The "advanced classes" just took those of us with higher grades out of the classroom to do nothing while the other kids got a chance to catch up. It was sickening really. So glad I was able to get my mom to pull me out of that.

                        And if they were smarter still they would realise that there exists inequalities that are insurmountable (unless you want to mentally and physically retard the hell out of everyone) and resolve to deal with the inequalities and class systems that they engender (together with other factors, of course).

                            Wasn't there a story where everyone was made average by giving above average people handicaps?

                              Not getting drunk and beating your kids for no apparent reason gives them with an unfair advantage over kids who have parents that do.

                              If you have children, please, in the interest of fairness and equality, drink heavily and mercilessly beat your children regularly.
