you can model the tax on the supply or the demand. in most simple models the outcome is the same

well yeah, there’s only so much sexy to go around. how else do you propose we save some for spiders?
sorry, I’m a little slow today. how is this seemingly keeping the economy afloat?
every dollar you raise, the fewer customers you get. the point is that you should want to raise the price whenever the relative drop in customers is less than the relative increase in price to maximise profits (where marginal cost is marginal benefit :) )
some injustices are structural
Right, and this Walmart in Europe would be where exactly?
I think the worry is a WW3 with China
I’m sure you do :)
That being said, by choosing not to break gender norms, are you not helping reinforce what an idea of female is?
(OK, maybe I’m going round in circles here)
Anyway, you have a lovely day :)
but isn’t the difference in one case free gender expression, whereas the other is (e.g. for trans male to female): I think I’m a woman and to show this I’m going to specifically dress in the ‘stereotypically womanliest’ way possible?
or, more generally, people shouldn’t be using gender as the reason to dress and act the way they want to. else they’re affirming that a certain gender means a certain form of acting.
obviously this is an exaggeration. but since we’re playing the game.
ok, I’ll bite and role-play devil’s advocate. how do you respond to such a take?
well if the feminist movement is all about deconstructing gender and removing fixed ideas of gender, then surely the trans movement is reversing this by reinforcing stereotypes in how people dress etc. /s
right, except sometimes it’s easier to impose conditions on certain countries than others. for example the US was able to get the previous Indian administration to sign a treaty ceding partial control of their arsenal to them, on threat of sanctions (if I recall correctly). as much as the US might want to do something like that with China, it wouldn’t be anywhere near as easy to pull off.
this is just an example, I’m not attaching moral value to what occurred/occurs
won’t they just be more reliant on lobbying gifts to compensate?
while the last point is perhaps the main determinant theory behind why many older people are not being owing more right wing, I’m a little confused by your first two points.
especially the fact that people have greater access to knowledge and are forced to think more critically. if anything, with the advent of the internet, echo chambers have never been easier, preventing critical thinking. this leads to a growing of extreme positions which further reinforces such views due to tribalistic fallacies in our thinking and the need for these tribal identities to distinguish themselves.

depends how you define duck; you can very much make it a binary. ultimately every term is just a construct
Canada is just British-flavoured America
perfect! thank you :)
I’m pretty sure he was involved with the liberation theology movements in Argentina before the previous pope clamped down on it (in his capacity as a cardinal)
