People are getting mad at this tweet so I'm gonna do the hopeless thing where I try to explain what I meant, thinking people will somehow prefer to know my actual perspective over their more sensationalist interpretation:https://twitter.com/Aella_Girl/status/1193639984382631937 …

I think for the sake of clarity you're better off saying like "then by your definitions I'm ok with this particular kind of 'assault' "
-
Like, I'm utilitarian/consequentialist enough that I think you're morally obligated to lie to the axe murder asking the location of the innocent. That's deception by anyone's standards, but to say "I'm ok with deception" is more false than true

Well, at least tweets like these weed out the mentally weak if nothing else. No need to entertain sensationalists’ need for drama.

We can't even get to a reasonable discussion on some of these issues. Just buzzword, buzzword, boom. We might be too ignorant for Democracy at this point.

I'm a little terrified that there seems to be such a blatant epistemic disconnect between people who have internalized the map-territory distinction and people who haven't.

I mean, it seems absolutely obvious that a pro-choice person would view things in exactly the way you described...And yet half the people commenting were acting like this was some horrific revelation. Like they couldn't conceive of a different map for the same territory.
