Socialism 2025 Conference, Sophie Lewis and Family Abolition
At the Socialism 2025 conference, writer Sophie Lewis discussed the concept of "abolishing the family" in favor of mutual aid networks and "capitalist care" alternatives. Lewis argues that the traditional family structure often fails to meet its promise of unconditional support and that safety should be built through state-independent infrastructures. Critics characterize these views as dangerous radicalism that promotes government dependence under the guise of free services.
