For child Idealists, 1T's might seem creepy. Adults seem uptight about things that one might think silly. Uncritical conformity is not a way for young Idealists whose childhoods afford perhaps more privacy and room for intellectual (as intellectual as is possible for a child). Children are not compelled to conform to the extreme except in very repressive societies.
The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the dedicated Communist but instead the people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction, true and false, no longer exists -- Hannah Arendt.
