As long as you agree that there is at least one thing that we shouldn't allow parents to do
I actually don't, though. Parental moral hazard might be bad, but societal moral hazard is even worse.
Of course, the catch here is "once they're out of the house, parental rights evaporate". So it's vital that we make sure that pathways to a serviceable life are available to the average teenager should that be needed.

And of course there's the Arizona tallboy with 23 oz
Yeah, I remember when they were 24.
Shrinkflation for 12 oz cans occasionally turns them into 330 mL cans (rather than the typical 355s), unless it's a drink made in Europe (like the old San Pelligrino citrus drinks that had the foil wrapper on the lid) in which case 330 mL is normal. Same thing with the 591 mL (20 oz) bottles shrinking to 500 mL.
Interestingly enough cans closer to the 500 ml can size in the US are associated mostly with energy drinks
They're 473 mL, or half a quart. If you want an even number of ounces you have to step up to the 20 oz/591 mL cans.

But Britain won WWII. France won WWII.
Objectively incorrect. They both lost, and catastrophically too.
Britain mortgaged its entire empire to the US to have enough materiel to prosecute a war they wouldn't see a dime from winning (its expeditionary forces were all wiped off the Continent), and France literally surrendered to the Nazis about 6 weeks after they attacked. I'll remind you that France was the preeminent military on the Continent at the time... and Germany took as long to stomp them as the US would take to defeat the Iraqis in '91.
I get that the (Western European) cultures that live there think they won but they're delusional to think their contributions really made that much of a difference. I'd say that they should be thankful that the Americans weren't a colonial power, but "denazification" is kind of just the American name for colonialism.
And I sympathize. I really do. After all, if you become a power strong enough to challenge American interests you'll get wiped off the map like Germany was in '45, and it's fair to say that most Western European citizens would not like to go back to that state of affairs. (And what great prize would they receive? They're still never going to be as well-off per-capita as the Americans are even if the entire Continent was Nazi.)

There's plenty of things that we don't allow people to let their kids do.
Yeah, like allowing them to play outside. The exact same excuse of "but random marauding penises" is used to justify that too, in fact.

it's difficult to see how one could formally prohibit age gap relationships between consenting adults.
Oh, that’s very easy. Just follow the miscegenation playbook:
- Make shit up about muh brain maturity or whatever that makes the younger partner less human -> not “adult”
- Ban relationships on those grounds

Perhaps, but should 18M-23W be less dysgenic than 35M-30W, it's still arguably worth encouraging.

He concludes on Telegram: [a bunch of stuff]
That basically just boils down to "reduce sociofinancial taxes on young men", though.
Personally, I'm more in favor of startup-type relationships where you have young woman encouraged to pair off with an [even younger] man that actually has some promise. More of a collaborative relationship, less just "dommy Mommy".
stigmatizing any age gap larger than that between identical twins is a great way to do it.
Despite Pornhub's insistence I'm not actually convinced incest is eugenic.

East Asian cities for example lack much of the issues with violence
Or in other words, the larger/denser the city, the more authoritarian the populace must be for it to function, for the raw density of assholes per square mile is far higher in a megatropolis than it is anywhere else on Earth.
The US is relatively unique in that, because the country doesn't generally permit itself to be completely dominated by its cities, it can't pass the laws it needs to commit to/enable functional authoritarianism like this (re: Moldbug and the lust for monarchy).
I'd actually argue city residents in the US are among the most oppressed in the world from having the policies they want, and when those people handwave this as Living In Da City, they are stating their faith in their oppression being morally correct.

Yeah, but you can't call them Indians (which they are) because we already have a group called that, because once upon a time some European tourists misidentified our Indians for their Indians.
Such is life.

Tends to refer more to Indians/Bangladeshi than actual Asians (which are called exactly that), though that might not be as true in the US.

praising him for protecting queer people on the sex offenders registry
"State-mandated girlfriends" continues to be a popular political kickback.
(Actually, that's another clear "betrayed the revolution" marker there- women fought that battle specifically to minimize the amount of sexual welfare/unwanted taxes that could be demanded of them. Now, witness the vanguard bravely trying to force them back into paying sexual welfare to pay back their Brave Allies. As Britain proves, this is also a tax disproportionately levied against the poor.)

the raw social power that caused wokeness
The raw social power that caused wokeness was basically just the revolution turning on itself after achieving its original goal. Women at large pounded the laws flat (the ones that would have prevented the transgender 'enforcers'; the 1950s would have solved this with them being genocided physically removed with the requisite violence), then the Devil turned 'round on them.
They don't have the 'cultural' (for lack of a better word) vocabulary to stop the badness- and why would they, being that men generally do that for them.
Are the trans sex pests running the universities?
No, they're just the enforcers/auditors of the power of the subset of [the striver women] who are running them.
TERF gynosupremists wouldn't even let transphobic men come to their aid?
How many black members did the KKK have? Why do you think that would be? (Was it for lack of effective outreach, perhaps?)

I don't think my woke friends (who are male and female, of course) are betraying the revolution for personal gain?
From the point of view of the original gynosupremacists, "let's declare supremacy over all men" turning into "except if they put on a dress, then they have even greater privileges than women ever did" (and are given the permission to be even greater sex pests than they ever were before) is pretty blatantly a betrayal. A real "4 legs good, 2 legs better" moment.
Naturally, those who are trying to do it don't see it that way.
I don't get the sense at all that trans activism is a frustrated men's rights movement
That is what I said- it's mostly woman vs. woman here, nothing to do with men (outside of their being an incidental/token). [Insert stereotype where men think it's all about them here.]
"Women at fault" is called "internalized patriarchy" or something
Kind of. That phrase is generally used to complain about there being any standards for female behavior, but it runs out of steam once you're past the initial conditions of the revolution outside of a meme to convince low-information/former revolutionaries.
It does make me laugh that the reason women who want to maintain their privileges can't in part because they forgot to invite any men (in the sense that there are very few men who actually understand women enough to effectively argue/aid against the ways women go to excess), though.

recognize that any comprehensive moral order is a religion, whether it has gods or not.
And we already have examples of this that are also very clearly religions- Confucianism and Buddhism. Western thought, as always, tends to be colored by "[everything we hate about/a strawman of/how wrong about everything is] Chrstianity", and then the reactionaries respond with [everything they love about/how right about everything is their version of] Christianity.
So they end up talking past each other.

TERFs routinely decry the trans activist movement as a sexually frustrated men's rights movement
Feminists of all kinds claim it's all men's fault, all the time. Why take them at their word on this?
TERF vs. not-TERF is at its core an intra-woman slapfight. The not-TERFs are pretty blatantly betraying the revolution for personal gain (as strivers do), the TERFs notice it, but they have no words for "women at fault" (every mechanism to restrain them from bad ideas has been destroyed) and no rhetorical tools to express it, so they just reach for the usual and hope it does the job.

and those assumptions are observably wrong because the observable range of human values is significantly wider.
Absolutely. Classical liberalism doesn't account for evil, which is understandable since it's the little-autistic-kid-asking-why-not of political ideologies[0] (and why people who aren't autistic little kids, at least at heart, tend to run into trouble with it). The whole 'life/liberty/pursuit of happiness' thing is a pretty clear example of this; for evil women, pursuit of happiness involves oppressing men, vice versa, and etc. for any combination of ingroup and outgroup you like.
In other words, it's an ideology for/by Abel, and as such doesn't put much effort into protecting itself from Cain (or at least denies his ability to do wrong... and really, if Cain should murder him, what Abel has done is generally pleasing to God; what horrible afterlife consequences should he fear? Would it not be a sin for Abel to devote resources to self-defense against his brethren rather than his normal business?).
Perhaps this cycle can be retarded or bypassed in some ways or in some circumstances
This cycle is usually retarded/bypassed by having so many resources that the limiting factor on their exploitation is manpower.
Or "$", for short.
You'll note that the pattern of classical liberalism within Western Great Powers tends to come with a new frontier and new technology to exploit it. This means that the population of those countries can get out of PvP mode (zero-sum) and go into PvE (positive-sum) mode, and once that happens, the people spec'd into PvP- the existing power structures- get pushed out because it's harder to rent-seek under these conditions. The US, for most of its history, has spent most of its time in PvE mode, and it shows- all of its cultural memes (including classical liberalism itself) are predicated on the PvE worldviews.
In a PvE environment, you actually can say "just build your own" and it not be in bad faith (and when PvPers say it today, they can't say it decoupled from the concept of PvE being the ideal- more proper snobs, stereotypically the Brits, have a different response to this; Americans will interpret this response as "no, because you're a nigger", because that's what it means). Values-incoherence is not something that can really be stopped if the ruling elements of a population wanted to[1], because if they did they'd be outcompeted by their enemies (internal or external) that did allow it.
Economic contractions, however, push the population towards PvP. Institutions become more powerful, rent-seeking becomes more important as a way to maintain personal wealth [which is where purity spirals come from, and in extremes, will cause the population to sell itself into more and more intense forms of slavery just to get a meal]. Values are mediated by those that still have resources, or can amass them, and those people would really hate if some other system that proved their values were wrong emerged (or allowed anyone the means or motivation to get around their resource monopolies)- hence why they wage holy war on them.
[0] As opposed to paternalist politics; these can be either mother-privileging (progressive) or father-privileging (progressive boogeyman/traditional). This is also what I'm generally trying to get at when I say "trads and progs are the same just with a different gender valence" and point out that liberalism and progressivism are very different things. One might even notice that paternalist politics are obsessed with fighting deontological evils (as a means to assert values-coherence); liberals only really have the consequential one (and as such can't assert values-coherence; "correct" is not a political identity).
[1] The one major exception to this is China, who declined to send colony ships anywhere specifically for this reason. What developed in the New World would fundamentally not be China any more, and unlike Europe they could afford to do this- they had everything they wanted at home. Which would remain true right up until they got curb-stomped by the English, and that was evidently only temporary.

This is also the crux of why I find gender ideology so dementedly self-centered
Well yeah, every -supremacy movement is kind of by definition self-centered (it's in the name), and gynosupremacy is not any different.
You don't get to shame and berate people for their sexual preferences because you made yourself less attractive to 99% of human beings, who's sexual preferences are tuned towards finding a fertile mate that they can produce offspring with.
In the 99.9% case, it's a woman being angry at men for this. Transgender ideology is simply a projection of that (i.e. to solidify their right to do it) and the equalization of "women can be men too".
that's a self-own
Why would it be? You don't even have to pair off, the State will take care of you in your old age.

In any of these kerfuffles no one mentions the players who are into the gooner bait but are actually underage themselves
With a general assertion that "sexuality isn't for subhumans" (which is what we actually mean by "underage"), are you really that surprised nobody looks at what said subhumans are actually doing?
Nobody cares about children and teenagers beyond the fact the right to abuse them can be (and is) handed out as a political kickback.

What other ideologies have practices which are so wildly at odds with their stated principles?
The groups progressives treat as boogeymen?
"The Left" views cops as bastards because criminals and thieves are their cops (they policing Injustice and enforcing Reparations).
If I were the Left I'd be demonizing the social forces that oppose their cops. Thus, the actual cops are one of the Left's most legible enemies (and why countries where state force is weaker keep their authorities masked, including the agency of the US charged with deporting the Left's cops).
