my take? 1) cringe 2) false, given that people are richer than ever before 3) hugely motivated thinking bc Y just wants to bone as many groupies as he can 4) doesn't even solve the stated problem - if 2 men & 2 women all have sex with each other, cost of childraising is constant https://twitter.com/racistmarx/status/1189578554851364865 …

I'd presume so. Except Bay Area, so maybe higher fixed cost of real estate.

so then the question is: what's easier and more likely to work: rebuilding social norms of 4,000 + years, or relocating to some place in the 99.9999% of the country where housing is affordable ?

Oh, I agree with you. I just don't think this is a special case, he's just universalizing his preferences (but they're sufficient abnormal it's more noticeable).
