I'd far rather teenagers get exposed to arguments from all sides of the political spectrum, and reasoned discussion between those viewpoints, than they be restricted to only "approved safe" points of view.
its not "all sides". and the abolishment of private property rights goes against the founding principles of liberty. So called liberals should be very concerned.
By what, an opinion piece in a teen magazine? One would think teenagers could actually read the piece and come to their own conclusions since many do have a brain in their head. After all this isn't the first time communist views were told to teenagers. The hippies of the sixties seem to have become the law abiding capitalist taxpayer of today with most owning private property. I wouldn't worry too much.

John Stuart Mill articulated this principle in On Liberty, where he argued that "The only purpose for which power can be rightfully exercised over any member of a civilized community, against his will, is to prevent harm to others."

In cases where "private property" is harmful to others it would be a rightful exercise of power to curtail it.
