Some honest questions for proponents of #anarchism, specifically of the individualistic sort (ie, #anarchocapitalism):

🧵

Sixteen years on the birdsite today. Not really there in the last few, though.

I encountered #HelenLewis' work for the first time when she conducted the first (and perhaps still only) honest adversarial interview with #JordanPeterson back in 2018. It was a pleasure to see someone wrestling with Peterson's ideas and strongly challenging some of them from a place of rigour and curiosity.

Today I listened to Helen Lewis on #BariWeiss' podcast, and definitely she's a thinker and an author worth following:

Thanks!

“Not your keys, not your coins”, yes.

But:

If you deem the probability of losing access to your wallet (device crushed, seed words lost in a fire, etc) 100 times smaller than the probability of your exchange failing (going under, being seized, etc) you should keep a hundredth of your #crypto at the exchange to balance the risk.

I also loved:

* _True Detective_ (S1, S2)
* _Big Little Lies_ (S1)
* _Community_ (several)
* _House of Cards_ (several)

And liked:

* _Vikings_ (S1, S2?)

Although the public campaign seems to have completely fizzled out, on this fine last Wednesday of March I wish you…

**a happy Document Freedom Day!**

So basically I can enter every street in #Madrid city any time (even when there's high air pollution warnings), and park anywhere (including regulated parking areas), for free and with no time limits.

@ImperfectIdea

I'd say many of those guesses aren't bad at all. Many counterfactuals involving creatures existing one hour from now, or not existing at all, are straightforward, and sometimes hugely consequential.

@ImperfectIdea

Ideas: the ones I'm defending in this discussion 😆

Decisions:

If more people were more thoughtful about the lives their descendants are likely to lead, we'd see fewer broken homes, fewer children dying of famine, fewer childless couples in prosperous nations, and more people adopting instead of having natural children.

If more people were more thoughtful about the asymmetry between suffering and pleasure, #suicide would carry less of a stigma, and would be easier to communicate, plan and execute.

Overpopulation and lack of natural resources would be less of a problem.

Discussions about public health and demographic changes would be easier. eg, people now assume that it's just bad when population shrinks (often for no good reasons), or that incurable diseases and painful chronic conditions deserve huge attention and resources (when a utilitarian calculus would say otherwise).

Our attachment to life would be more rational, in general.

@LadyDragonfly

Is that #patriarchy also the reason you know the names Jack the Ripper, Pol Pot, and Ted Bundy, but you've never even once heard the name Elizabeth Bathory?
