> youth should be questioning the rules

that sounds like a rule to me

maybe the rules they're questioning simply aren't the ones you want them to question

for example: the usa has long had a social "rule" to tolerate intolerance, but now that youth see where that has led, many are questioning that rule

they were long warned that it leads to bad censorship, and they look around now, and see that the intolerant who warned are themselves perpetrating a wave of censorship anyways, and the argument is dissolved

a good person might want whichever rules do less harm in the end (and perhaps ones that do more good), it naturally follows that those primary goals should inform decisions regarding rules and policy and economy and government

we're good with questioning the rules, right?
