I am absolutely sure that this framing is accurate, and that the California Farm Bureau, made up of California farmers, took actions that made things worse for California farmers, and I am sure that a non-farmer who lives in London knows all of the relevant details.
Hayek's "knowledge problem" is Catholic social-con "subsidiarity" is me thinking that Brits don't know what's right for Americans, that Londoners don't know what's right for farmers, and that Cory Doctorow is wrong about almost everything.

1/ I think @Noahpinion is basically arguing that because America is made up of whites (baseline crime rate) & blacks (5x white crime rate), adding illegal aliens (1.5x white crime rate) lowers the average RATE of crime by diluting the black population, even as it increases crime
...at least, this is the only explanation that squares @Noahpinion 's statement that "illegal aliens lower crime" with the FBI crime stats.
Noah, is this a fair understanding of your position vis-a-vis how illegals affect crime in Germany and in the US?

Problem @robkroese is having is that he is a full fledged adult operating at Kegan stage 4 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Ke…, where rules matter and we respect processes, while the SJWs he deals with are children at stage 2 who want to win no matter what & don't believe in reciprocity.
We've all heard "progs believe in free speech when they were out of power and don't believe in it now that they're in power".
Looking at things via the framing of Kegan levels explains the general case...

ok, this is a good question
I basically had the exact same problem with dating in my 20s (ironically, I understood the interviewing API, and didn't realize that the dating API is pretty similar)
what she says: "have you read any books recently?"
what a sperg hears: "have you read any books recently?"
or, if he's a high grade sperg: "WHAT books have you read recently"

There's a classic trope in SF stories (maybe other stories too?) where X thing is introduced for a good reason, then Y for a good reason, then Z
...then the hero/villain snaps X + Y + Z together to make something awesome

One example I recall is a short story where the galactic federation allows wars, but they have to be low-tech 15th century wars. So mercenaries are screened for high-tech on the way to each battle.
One faction brought in fighting sticks and tent shelter halves. Both legal!

@wraithburn got @AlexNowrasteh to admit that first generation immigrants do in facto vote more Dem than natives. (just like their children and grandchildren do)
Question for @CatoInstitute - why are you in favor of more immigration when your own ppl say they vote Dem? 106/
LOL, @AlexNowrasteh
now has the assistance of some white knight who is connecting traits like!e "uses logic to dissect propaganda" & "wants a retraction of false data" to white supremacy.

TFW when you've already read a Cato paper, the hard data in the paper argues that immigrants are more likely to be redistritionists, you say so, and the Cato employee cites it to "refute" you
"Fig 1 shows that all immigrants...are and less likely to identify as Republican."

No, Alex, I'm not citing a Pew poll.
I have been reading Cato papers for decades. It was actually Cato papers that helped PUSH me into a limited-immigration stance.
page 1:
"Naturalized immigrants support Democrats more than Republicans"

13 year olds can buy a gun, as often as they want, no questions asked. And the gun store can't check that they have their parents' permission, nor tell their parents.
how many of these guys were on their parents' health insurance, majoring in gender studies, and ranting on tumblr about how homework is racist ?
