I'm 46 years old. I stopped playing video games when I was 25. Then I finished a PhD. "When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things."



Makes me wonder if Lindsay has ever played video games. "On the rails" is not a compliment. It's also worth asking, is someone ruled by a king but taxed a maximum of 10% of his income with a minimum of regulation inhibiting his ability to run a business more or less free than someone in a democracy taxed 50% of his income who can only access the services provided by the state as bureaucrats see fit to ration them? I'd love to see a democracy in our day and age that could provide the former without a king, but give me a modern example that isn't a city state. I don't want kings or aristocracy, although we realistically have them in democracies too, just by a different name. But I also will insist that talking about how to get to that greater freedom shouldn't be policed via smears and misrepresentation.
