cads: cazalla: you DON'T see that
mircea_popescu: used to be the only attraction of livejournal.
cazalla: where do you see that
mircea_popescu: one of the funniest things to watch is a goffy and an emo chick being interested in the same dood.
cads: and the creepy, "look we can predict crimes before they happen by monitoring unsent drafts on facebook"
mircea_popescu: and goffy, which is "look at all the neat shit i don't understand that i've randomly collected mostly by breaking old stuff apart with a hammer"
mircea_popescu: anyway, the entirety of what passes for "social sciences" in the us these days can broadly be divided without remained into the emo ("i am special because i am chiefly only interested in myself and let me tell you about myself which is important because i am special bla bla bla")
mircea_popescu: and offers a seeming basis for further nuttery (ie, that a "better" construct could be constructed. on etsy.)
cads: right, the builders
mircea_popescu: and thus simultaneously casts blame, upon the politically convenient targets of ostracism (ie, actual males, actual females, anyone not fucktarded)
mircea_popescu: it leads people to imagine that it was "constructed", which is a pedestrian interpretation of the term of art,
cads: but more often with "the truth", at least if you dig at it.
mircea_popescu: nah that's not it.
cads: it's... essentially right but leads people to conclude what is merely a social construct doesn't actually exist so it should be possible in /theory/ to completely dispell that what was a construct.
cads: btw who is the originator of the social construct BS?

mircea_popescu: nm, Minh Nguyen fails to be hot and therefore her rambling is irrelephant.
mircea_popescu: so if i make girls twerk i'm a mysogynist ?
cads: "In my ideal world, the misogynists would be ultra-detectable, with facial pocks and sulfury odors and grunt “wiggle your glazed donut ass for me.” "
cads: also this
cads: "Lack game? Try this formula: mention x feminist theorist, y lamentation about political issue that attacks women’s rights, z assertion about sexual consent. That tactic alone may work on someone, and that’s utterly scary."
mircea_popescu: "nevertheless, i would like to check my privilege"

mircea_popescu: would this be one of those ambiguous episode kids get involved in that are currently mislabeled as "rape" in the us ?

cads: there's this neat defense

cads: the scenario is too tacky to think about :D
cads: ehh, that scenario is too imaginary
cads: Suppose I have attempted to construct a system where my clients can pay well defined amounts of money to predictably add and remove beliefs from a group of people. It's worked - I've both started and ended revolutions, political movements, market crazes... in a number of countries.
Namworld: I'm pretty sure my humans aren't fungible. Some of my subjects are worth more. They'd cost you more for me to be willing to depart with them.
mircea_popescu: i have no objection to the activity, but it doth amuse on one hand and fail to entice o nthe other.
mircea_popescu: only the inhuman parts are fungible.
mircea_popescu: you are arguing that people are interchangeable, which is broken in the way socialism generally is broken.
