Robin HansonVerified account @robinhansonThose w/ less access to sex plausibly suffer simiarly to those with low income, & might similarly hope to organize to lobby for redistribution along this axis. Strikingly, I see little overlap between those concerned about income & sex inequality. http://www.overcomingbias.com/2018/04/two-types-of-envy.html …Show this thread1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -
are you angry about the positive claim or about an implicit normative claim

I’m not “angry”, it’s just a revealing tweet because it’s wrong in so many ways at once, and is indicative of his whole “im just asking questions” schtick

No, it’s not. The problem isn’t “raising uncomfortable idea”, it’s the way he refuses to engage with any criticism by claiming he doesn’t stand for anything or that he doesn’t care about details. It’s all over that thread.

its just that most of the criticism is really boring what empirical claim(s) do you object to and why?

^ you’re sort of repeating his problem here. He deliberately avoids ever making empirical claims, and then claims only empirical criticisms, which he’s precluded, as valid. But to humor you, I’ll outline some issues -

Replying to @KHicksEfficient @eigenrobot and
It posits “sex inequality” and “income inequality” as being somehow similar to each other. “Why do the same people advocate for one but not the other?”. What about these things are similar? Their effects? Their structure? Their causes? Society’s tools to resolve them?

Right these questions are interesting "Here is a thing that seems superficially similar but is treated differently by people. What's up with that? Is the superficial difference misleading or are people lying as usual, and how much of each? In what way?"

I think most people would STRONGLY disagree that they are superficially similar. Hanson won’t explain which ways they are similar, not will he address commentators pointing out that the solutions for one make no sense for the other.
