It's not the old people making demands, at least in my experience. Whether it was my older family members or my older customers at work, they gave less of a shit than young people.
Exceptions exist, all the usual caveats, but that's what I saw.
From Freddie's linked article:
"Yes, Marx and Engels took their stab at the family, including in The Manifesto, but everything about post-revolutionary life under communism is a little underdrawn, and if we’re going to go to the mattresses for anything the Papas Smurf argued for, I would prefer it not be the family. Because I like the family! And so does almost everybody else, of any gender, race, ideology, or circumstance."
I'll admit that he never said "families are good," but I think you're misrepresenting him.
Zero. Scott wasn't mentioned.
Don't be shy, what are the structural forces? Don't mind the downvotes.
I had 0-1 black kid in my elementary school classes. Due to history, I saw more Natives. As I grew up, I saw more people of different races. Today, my city is more diverse than ever. I don't think we got less racist. I think that it's as simple as this: historically the place was settled by whites, and eventually the town became economically attractive to outsiders of any race.
