Our society is always looking to punish children or blame them for something.

I know fascist societies always scapegoat those with the least power to fight back, but it's always the most disturbing to me when its children and teens who don't even have a fully developed brain.

No, kids don't owe us anything. Yes, we owe them everything. No, kids are not meant to be obedient little soldiers. No, treating them like prisoners is not going to solve youth crime.

I fucking hate it. Poor kids.

I frequently think about something I read a long while ago that was basically “Children are the most oppressed class in society”

I mean fuck, they aren’t even considered full citizens! They quite literally do not have the same rights as most people. It’s gross.

America specifically doesnt even recognize the UN charter on the rights of the child.
