Fascinating convo today w a college student whose self-created major in cognitive science + tangential subjects made me jealous of getting to create lots of independent studies and spend 4 years on a bespoke course of study. I should have done more independent studies in college — PolitiTweet.org

1. We were made aware of the needless harms it causes, especially to the least advantaged people in society, and how the well-connected exploit it while rent-seeking. 2. We felt a moral imperative to oppose it and tell others about its harms. 3. Some listened but many haven't. — PolitiTweet.org

Is there an intellectual history of the libertarian obsession with occupational licensing?

@drvolts Given how many countries, religions, universities, corporations, journalistic outlets, Marxist collectives, Republican fundraisers, sports leagues, bars, and other places have had hostile environments toward women, I'm not sure this tells us anything about EA per se... — PolitiTweet.org

@Gregin317 Could you answer my question? — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@Gregin317 Greg, do you think white supremacy is the cause of literally every police killing including those where the victim is white, or 100 percent of killings of people of color, or 100 percent of killings of Black people, or a subset of killings of Black people? — PolitiTweet.org

Anyway, read Thomas' piece, because it's really good, but also because he shows his work in a way that reveals how mentally engaging with criticism helped it get there. — PolitiTweet.org

Over time, however, I think Twitter has become more dominated by a -dunk-or-get-dunked on "conflict theory" rather than "mistake theory" orientation. And I think *everyone loses* as a result. — PolitiTweet.org

This is easier when, as with Derek, you've known your interlocutor for a decade and have high trust in their smarts and integrity. But I try, at least, to engage that way with strangers, and often benefit from it. — PolitiTweet.org

I'm never going to write about domestic spending in Britain. But now I have a better sense of what different people believe about it and how they use language and what various critiques are. I'm a better educated consumer of news because of... conversation. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
To be clear, I don't think this applies only to folks preparing articles. Earlier I tweeted out a critique of press coverage that seemed persuasive to me. @DKThomp pushed back smartly. It forced me to rethink my initial instinct, learn more, & come away w a more nuanced view — PolitiTweet.org

And to me it's a mental model that makes friendly disagreement--which IMHO has declined on this platform--more likely, because everyone is benefitting from exchanges. It isn't a zero sum game. — PolitiTweet.org

This to me is how social media at its best functions, at least for those of us whose main gig is writing more considered opinions for an audience of people who don't necessarily follow us in real time. — PolitiTweet.org
