    “Who still has a lot to learn” makes it sound like he won an argument with a particularly uninformed child. Like he really is scraping the bottom of the barrel of debate opponents.

      Yeah it does. A major aspect of people only ever seeing kids saying left stuff is part of the perception used to pretend we are children and that people grow out of it as they get older. I am not sure how to break it or even if it would be beneficial to do so, part of me thinks the way they ridicule young people so much partly causes them to be so disconnected from influence and that hands over a lot of them to us. Provided that they don’t move rightwards due to material conditions they stay with us too.
