The primary thing that annoys me about this person's point is the term "bedtime abolition." She doesn't want bedtime abolition at all; no one does (everyone wants to go to bed at some point, after all). What she wants is wakeup-time abolition. And I agree with that. Calling it bedtime abolition has the dual effect of incorrectly expressing the issue, and making the person saying it sound like a whiny child.
she's saying that that phrase is a an example of how real anarchist arguments are misrepresented as childish whining
Except she uses the term "bedtime abolition discourse" without a hint of irony, as best I can tell; not even a set of scare quotes on it.
i mean if you lack the context and haven't been reading posts on the internet continuously for the last 5 years and also don't read past the first sentence, sure i can see how it could come off that way.
