"redistribution of sex" encompasses proposals as milquetoast as increasing representation of less attractive people in media to counteract the disalignment of appearance standards from reality y'all are fucking working yourselves into a tizzy smdh

but surely when people talk about redistributing income (to alleviate income inequality) the typical reading is "confiscating income" albeit generally via the tax code; i think he's written about this as well that "redistribution" means confiscation.
-
yeah it's for sure helping lots that "redistribution" has meant confiscation and handouts in US politics for a cool century. the relevant tweet:https://twitter.com/robinhanson/status/990259534923956225 …

i mean, i just flat out don't want "policy options" regarding sex and people's sex lives, but particularly not from him and for this particular reason.
-
there's a lot to be said for that position and i'd love it if we rejecting hearing from him on that basis, not the basis of a game of Outrage Telephone
-
oh my objection to your original tweet tho is that i think people are precisely right about what he meant and he just didn't like getting called out for it.
-
gotta say i doubt that, i think the other contretemps of his hints at where he's really going, which is the same tired ass "let's roll back the sexual revolution because forced monogamy was so good you guys" as all the Unwin-heads are into and Douthat picked up on
