I ask a lot of questions but don't go into my beliefs too often. Here's a summary of my positions on some controversial things:
* worker's unions are probably bad
* body dysphoria is real and trans people should be able to transition as treatment
*stereotypes are based on truth

* minimum wage is probably bad
* corporate influence of the legal system is absolutely horrible
* democracy is probably not ideal
* requiring other people use your preferred pronouns is a violation of boundaries
* trying to use people's preferred pronouns is good
2/

* we should be more sympathetic to cheaters
* building permits/zoning are probably bad
* taxes are BAD, but I probably support "revenue through collective good punishment" like heavy fines for environmental pollution
* experiencing (not acting on) attraction to children is fine

* I'm scared of the loss of social structure and cohesion that's coming with loss of religion
* abortion is kinda indistinguishable from murder but also i'm ok with this, and in some circumstances might be ok after birth
* Pro death penalty maybe?
* legalize drugs, but-

* tax heavily sales of drugs that disproportionately lead towards social damage
* i'm fine with funded incentives for voluntary self-sterilization of certain groups
* economic inequality isn't inherently bad, you're just jealous
* trad buddhists are lame and masochistic
5/

* probably most narratives that involve group-victimization/oppressor narratives are much more inaccurate than others
* sex trafficking in the US is probably way overblown
* maybe [x thing] is not actually trauma?
* BURN INSURANCE REGULATIONS (and companies?)
* also academia

* men having a hard time getting laid is really serious, damaging to mental health, and we should stop making fun of them
* your feelings are valid. Yes, all of them. even that one.
* stop wiping your ass with toilet paper, bidets are obviously superior
