Let me explain something to you, Walsh. This business requires a certain amount of finesse.

      the douthat column is substantively pretty mundane, and the fact that he's made everybody give it an avalanche of hateclicks anyway is the reason he makes the big bucks

      This is the least mundane conservative opinion I have heard... Prostitutes and sex robots will be asked to perform "in service to a redistributive goal that for now seems creepy or misogynist or radical, feels pretty much inevitable." Mundane? 🤔

      he's pessimistically forecasting how the rest of society is going, not endorsing it, which is kind of his whole deal. and actually, i think he's right, and that bums me out too

      I don't know, he seems like he's endorsing it a little bit. Also he's giving air time to extremist ideas from incels, who are in the news right now for killing people. Is it really the time to say, "extremists... see the world more clearly"? Yikes.

      i guess it takes having reading douthat more, but douthat is not a guy who is particularly happy about the commodification of sex. he also doesnt give any air time to incel weirdos in the piece

          Interesting. I guess hot mess garbage thinkpieces are mundane, but putting forth the idea of sexual redistribution for philosophical discussion is icky and abhorrent! I wish I could take back my hate click. NYT op-ed loves to get my hate clicks.

          He's saying that liberals and libertarians have created the environment where this abhorrent idea will flourish, right? It's even worse than what I originally thought he was saying.

          question — do you favor the legalization and regulation of sex work?

          I favor not being trapped in this argument, get to the point.

          serious question. I think I do, do you?

          I'm not sure. I know a lot of sex workers advocate for it for themselves, and I can see how it might give them more agency and take power away from pimps and sex traffickers.

          legalized sex work is a way of using the market to redistribute the experiential commodity of sex - it’s a kind of sexual redistributionism. before the recent blow-up I’d never thought to think of it in those terms

          I see that angle but talking about bodies as currency requires some nuance, especially regarding sexual violence. Also I think this discussion can only happen after fair pay, parental leave, and opportunities for women are real.
