Yes, yes, yes, indeed, we did push home an "unfair" advantage !
We tried many things to help others also, but indeed we
practiced and preached reading to your children.

According to a professor at the University of Warwick in England,
parents who read to their kids should be thinking about how they're
"unfairly disadvantaging other people's children" by doing so.
In an interview with ABC Radio last week, philosopher and professor
Adam Swift said that since "bedtime stories activities . . . do indeed
foster and produce . . . [desired] familial relationship goods," he
wouldn't want to ban them, but that parents who "engage in
bedtime-stories activities" should definitely at least feel kinda bad
about it sometimes: "I don't think parents reading their children
bedtime stories should constantly have in their minds the way
that they are unfairly disadvantaging other people's children,
but I think they should have that thought occasionally," he said.

I kind of had the thought he wants. I did not think about
disadvantaging other peoples kids, but I did think of the advantage I
was giving mine. I could not be giving mine an advantage without someone
else becoming disadvantaged that way.

Oy yeah, I was pretty happy about it too.

Of course you were happy about disadvantaging other peoples kids. No
doubt you were well aware that the MOST disadvantaged would be
minorities and you were celebrating because you are white and all whites
are racis'!

You obviously are not a caring liberal!

What amazes me about the modern world is that there is clearly no idea
one can espouse that is INSANE ENOUGH that those in the media will not
promote it as reasonable and true!

And speaking of the Left, I remember a Soviet Era USSR "protest" film.
It was to illustrate just the leftist ideas above. They had this ballet
that was being put on under Soviet equality of all citizens and anyone
was able to a dancer in the production. And in order that the Cow-like
women and moose-like men not feel disadvantaged, the professional
trained ballet dancers had to all dance with these sandbags hanging from
them! The production was hilarious!

Given the well-known tolerance of all leftist progressives and their
abhorrence of violence, I'm sure the filmmakers were all shot.

Sadly, no. It also is orthodox doctrine among the left. It ties in
with all their Stalinist "egalitarianism." This is their standard
bullshit about a "level playing field." Never mind that all children
start on a level playing field, but some parents work hard to raise
their children up; they aren't doing anything to push other children down.

It is good and right for parents to want to provide their children with
an advantage. In no way does that hinder other parents from trying to
do the same thing.

You could have hoped it was, because the name of the Stalinist who
pushed this story is Swift.

Adam Swift (born 1961) is a British political philosopher and
sociologist [sociology is left-wing poetry] who specialises in
debates surrounding liberal egalitarianism. He has published books
on communitarianism, on the philosophical aspects of school
choice, and on social justice, as well as an introduction to
contemporary political theory which has been translated into
several languages.

Swift studied PPE at Balliol College, Oxford, where he was taught
by Steven Lukes. He then did an MPhil in Sociology at Nuffield
College, and subsequently became a Fellow of Balliol College. He
completed his DPhil while a Fellow, on the topic of 'A
Sociologically Informed Political Theory'.[1] He has since been
Director of the Oxford Centre for the Study of Social Justice, and
has held visiting positions at Harvard, the Massachusetts
Institute of Technology, the Australian National University, and
the University of Wisconsin at Madison.[2] He is currently working
on developing a liberal egalitarian theory of the family with
Harry Brighouse. Since January 2013, he has been Professor of
Political Theory in the Department of Politics and International
Studies at the University of Warwick.

Just a garden-variety Stalinist, as are all proggies.

It's the smae moonbat illogic the left spouts about "zero-sum

And of course the "rich" have taken the most dollars and that's why they
need to have their dollars taken from them and redistributed in a proper
fashion among the humans they originally took them from. (Less necessary
expenses for "administration", natch)
