A third of Americans under the age of 35 want a police state with no police.

We all believe dumb things. I'm including myself in that, too. It's pretty clear that we don't think that any of our beliefs are dumb; the moment we start to think that, we change our beliefs or we lie. I'm also always willing to reiterate that two things can be right at the same time.

Still, two contradictory things can't be right at the same time.

I can get why people passionately fight to end capitalism. I regard all of those people as either ignorant or evil; but, it's possible to have a consistent set of moral values that lead you to that kind of activism.

Still, when a third of people under the age of thirty-five are saying that we should abolish the police, we know we're doing a shit job of teaching critical thinking skills.

It would be great if a solid third of relatively young people were anarcho-capitalists like me; but, we all know that they're not. Simple polling shows that this approximate 33% of relatively young people are also people that want the government to do more, to tax the rich, to destroy capitalism, to force businesses to operate as co-ops, and so on. We all know that BLM isn't an anarcho-capitalist organization when it states that abolishing the police is a goal.

This means that at least a full third of Americans under the age of thirty-five want a police state with no police and they don't realize how stupid that is.
