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

* I'm scared of the loss of social structure and cohesion that's coming with loss of religion * abortion is kinda indistinguishable from murder but also i'm ok with this, and in some circumstances might be ok after birth * Pro death penalty maybe? * legalize drugs, but-

* 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/

* 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

Not really? I don't mean I want religion back; only that it was providing some social norms that were helpful. I also think sympathy to cheating is also a helpful social norm, even if it's not a traditionally religious one.

Disagree on academia. It needs reform, not destruction, lol.

"Everyone's feelings are always valid" is probably one of the most central tenants of my person life philosophy.

*Victimhood is unacceptable no matter who uses it--we men don't need hankies any more than feminists do; you want to respect us, stop playing us the world's smallest violin *feelings exist, period. Validation is subjective *ONLY w/ a perfect design. So you'd better engineer one

Disagree with prolly more than half of this, but props to you for putting them all out there, especially given the possibility of heat for some of them (minimized by your followers being unusually open minded, but still there).
