In Soviet Russia, adults rule you — S2 / Q69,83
The fan theory that everyone regenerates the system of kids being in control and adults being subordinate because kids strictly maintain that only this can bring freedom. In the Soviet Union region adults broke it all open, but they were ultimately defeated, and children subsequently gloated that only a world that lets kids create utter chaos and paintball the world with conflicting kinds of "creativity" understands "having ideals" and "freedom for all limited by equal freedom for others".

The setting morphs into a weirdly scathing critique of Idealist models of society that makes you question if Growing Around is actually just a perfect metaphor for capitalism
