If they’re randomly picking from a list of possible political positions, I’d agree. However, I suspect that is not the realistic alternative to parroting their parents political positions.
Maybe ideally it’d be rational reflection to the best of their ability on values and whatnot. However, if we had a switch to turn off parroting-parents-political-positions we’d be in a weird space...children wouldn’t even know about most political positions to even choose from.
