They literally cannot even model pro-life conservatives as people who genuinely think of abortion as murder. Like, as soon as they try to imagine being a person who genuinely thinks it’s murder, so that they can follow from that position to the obvious policy consequences, their brain like glitches out and they go immediately back to being confused. This is the simplest, most obvious, most straightforward case we’re just simply modeling the other person‘s mind leads immediately to their full suite of policy preferences. And they literally can’t even do it in this case. I’ve watched them glitch out on it like a hundred times during in-person debates. You can almost see on their face how difficult it is for them.

When libs talk to you about empathy, what they mean is “I want you to feel the same way I do and thus recognize the superiority of my moral sentiments, so that you will give me power over you.” They can’t imagine being Sudanese any more than they can imagine being a conservative.

@Oh_Pee_Em @auroradelpia @xwanyex “My enemies”? I don’t consider us enemies, that’s just something you believe about me, and thus why you think I believe that :) Sorry, I didn’t spend all those years as a homeschooler to a stay at home mom in the south to not make conservative friends.

@Rhodeposting @Oh_Pee_Em @xwanyex We don’t think we agree on premise, at all. It’s been the argument since forever. If we thought you were simply evil and stupid instead of having foundationally different views we’d never interact about it again But you’re making up stuff to be mad about that no one said

@ksusys @DerekPederson3 Not less bad tbh. A woman’s nervous system is wired to protect its reproductive system against force bc (for most of human history) pregnancy is extremely life threatening. The reason dudes don’t think rape is as bad is bc our bodies register it as attempted/successful murder

They sincerely think it's morally wrong but less morally wrong than murdering an infant. They think (as I do for the record as someone who is pro-choice) that life begins at conception but moral value and personhood exists on a continuum that increases throughout pregnancy.

@xwanyex Most pro-life conservatives do not consider it murder, as evidenced by the fact that they are (usually) willing to grant exceptions for rape, incest, or the health of the mother. If they really believed it was murder, they'd argue (as some do!) for a blanket, universal ban.

Women have been sharing these insane dramatic memes online for 10+ yrs & the guys accusing you of having no theory of mind for *them* think that the reason a woman would be mad during an abortion argument is because she’s ashamed instead of just…someone who can get pregnant :)

Bro. If you're talking to a woman who is getting extremely angry at you for saying "abortion is murder" just take a minute and consider what the **very obvious** reason for that might actually be.

@raytheonUSB @NPD_K9_UNIT @xwanyex if it’s just this thread of contradictions this whole way down where none of u can agree on what it even is or what he even means, maybe it’s because you’re using satirical mimicry against us without even understanding the thing ur mimicking. The low theory of mind is yours babe

@raytheonUSB @NPD_K9_UNIT @xwanyex I think the issue is that you think that we think those concepts are different. There are two kinds of empathy - both cognitive and emotional. people use just use “empathy” for shorthand and context clues are how u know the vibes. every accusation is a confession

@Garage_Drag0n @MariGO2thepolls Well California is the 4th largest economy in the world and still receives half a million new people each year despite a totally unsustainable population. NYC is the wealthiest city in the world. They’re not paradise to you, fortunately that is called an opinion not a fact :)

@MariGO2thepolls It’s also the case that a dumb argument for individualism and freedom generally leads to better market outcomes than progressive empathetic overreach Blue states like NYC and CA ought to be paradise

Right wingers like to say you are modeling their positions badly because in your model they are dumb and irrational. A model isn’t more accurate to the subject if it’s smart and rational lol it’s not our responsibility to construct well intentioned intelligent versions of yourselves for you

cis coworker just said in 30 years they will come out with a study that everyone has thoughts of being transgender but only autistic people actually follow through with them which is why there is such a high concentration

@RyukoVT_ @MinModulation It’s actually lowkey sad tbh. If you listen closely it’s just a bunch of people yelling “im scared im unlovable as i am!” And “im not very good at perspective taking!” And “I’ve not found success in a changing world!” And “im not confident in my values!” and so on and so forth
