@morallawwithin Sorry racists and cons, not being able to conceptualize all 8 billion people and other forms of life with regards to your moral philosophy is low-IQ behavior
@mattyglesias They aren’t capable of conceptualizing 8 billion people and including them in some basic moral calculus without getting overwhelmed, so they decided it must be bad to do so
It’s a low-IQ thing, just like every other right wing meme
@atheorist@quantum_geoff Specifying formal theory makes your characterization a lot more believable. I know plenty of students from typical public schools and second-tier undergrads at top 6 physics programs, but none in formal theory—most undergrads don’t even have opportunities in that field anymore
@bengrossbg Older libs seems to think modern conflicts disprove old prophecies about inevitabilities that were always absurd. As a fellow young liberal maybe I just have different biases; to me, Russian pipelines and China joining the WTO worked pretty much exactly as they should have.

@janecoaston Is it really surprising that a Supreme Court justice and constitutional scholar might have a soft spot for a musical about Alexander Hamilton?
@thejelvprint@MariGO2thepolls It doesn't matter how hard you make the test, it's still 99th percentile lol. At many high schools a 1500 would be the best score of the graduating class; there just aren't enough spots at the most prestigious ~20 universities for every star student
