I ask a lot of questions but don't go into my beliefs too often. Here's a summary of my positions on some controversial things: * worker's unions are probably bad * body dysphoria is real and trans people should be able to transition as treatment *stereotypes are based on truth

* minimum wage is probably bad * corporate influence of the legal system is absolutely horrible * democracy is probably not ideal * requiring other people use your preferred pronouns is a violation of boundaries * trying to use people's preferred pronouns is good 2/

* we should be more sympathetic to cheaters * building permits/zoning are probably bad * taxes are BAD, but I probably support "revenue through collective good punishment" like heavy fines for environmental pollution * experiencing (not acting on) attraction to children is fine

* tax heavily sales of drugs that disproportionately lead towards social damage * i'm fine with funded incentives for voluntary self-sterilization of certain groups * economic inequality isn't inherently bad, you're just jealous * trad buddhists are lame and masochistic 5/
Replying to
* probably most narratives that involve group-victimization/oppressor narratives are much more inaccurate than others * sex trafficking in the US is probably way overblown * maybe [x thing] is not actually trauma? * BURN INSURANCE REGULATIONS (and companies?) * also academia

* men having a hard time getting laid is really serious, damaging to mental health, and we should stop making fun of them * your feelings are valid. Yes, all of them. even that one. * stop wiping your ass with toilet paper, bidets are obviously superior

Doesn't that imply that the wealthy have an obligation to care for the poor? Like, I agree that this is a good norm and we should support and reward people who do this - but to view this as an obligation is one step too far for me.
