This reads almost like the plot of a South Park episode.
To recap: Under capitalism, kids(!) get to make cool stuff out of Legos even though the norms are not always fair. Socialist teachers decry this unfairness. After a crisis, they successfully dismantle the unfairness, but only via brute force confiscation, which they execute only after decrying such authoritarianism.
The lesson I learned: Evidently, the socialist intelligentsia has no ability or willingness to produce fairness alongside other goods, either because the problem is inherently extremely difficult (perhaps impossible), or because intelligentsia socialists are generally untalented people, or because each of these socialists has invested so much of her personal resources and effort toward crushing capitalism that she has excluded any thought or concept of how to promote more fairness and cooperation along with producing other goods.
I imagine at least a few of the poor kulak^H^H^H^H^Hkid citizens of Legotown learned the same thing.
