      gosh this is such a bummer to read yeah any policy implemented at scale, no matter how well designed, is going to have some bad results some subset of such policies is worth implementing anyway because the net benefits in some sense outweigh the net costshttps://twitter.com/alexandraerin/status/1004400861865488384 …

      So I just saw someone wondering how liberals can cut ties with conservative friends and family members over immigration policies when most Americans (including most conservatives) support immigration reform. I'm going to talk about what I call the Shirley Exception.

      I don't have strong opinions about the policies in question generally however people can reasonably disagree in good faith about the likelihood of different outcomes of a policy or its absence or alternatives this seems uncontroversial

      even agreeing on probabilities they can disagree about the value of different outcomes without being monsters people have different social aesthetics perhaps you disagree, in which case good luck in your effort to subjugate everyone who doesnt share your precise taste in mores

      none of this is novel, Certain People have been pleading the belligerents to lay down their arms with these words since the war broke out I dont know maybe OP is dumb but it more reads like shes not even trying just "heres todays rationale for why the outgroup is irredeemable"

      what's especially dispiriting I guess is that she's explicitly justifying people cutting ties with their friends and family right there in the tweet not straight up calling for it, but that's the implication that seems to be spelled out through the thread, if you buy her ideas

      this hits me personally, for sure I've lost very close people who won't talk to me because I want to sit out the culture wars. It's their life now and I don't understand it, and I think I fear what it might represent or portend

      I've talked to a lot of people who have lost homes and prosperity because they thought someone was flagging neutral or even allied during the culture wars... and found out, no, Red Team was here. Sometimes the calculus is "fight or die."

          Everyone knows that the policy of driving LGBT kids out of their homes never ended, right? That people are driven out to die on the street still, right? It just happens more quietly, now, it's given different justifications, cover. It still happens.

          this is horrifying to me in the same qualitative way, though not quantitatively, that OP's thread was, if that makes any sense to you
