@Mikey dude, I go do shit for a few weeks and the internet is just a shit storm
As they're so small their life spans are irrelevant
So even if humans had hive minds, communism still wouldn't work
well reddit IS the garbage bin of the internet

@system11 there's higher level conversation on 4chan than reddit. It's fucking sad

What is the name of the philosophical argument used by JF here?
He calls it "the fisherman's bait" in informal terms
Is there a formal name for it?
listening now
I don't know, I don't think I've ever heard of it being specifically named anything before.
I think there's a degree to which the ideas aren't being explored with proper nuance, however. Just from this brief clip.
Basically, the issue is, if you have some mechanism by which those who are more focused on being reproductive than being productive can economically sustain their reproduction, it creates a risk that it would be exploited by those people to tremendously expand their ratio of the population.
Essentially, any charity meant to address poverty needs to also implement some check against the subset of the population which requires it becoming a more dominant representation of the population as a whole.
Which is extraordinarily tricky.
The best selection mechanism, historically, in my understanding has actually been *lethal scarcity.* But only in certain contexts. And this is something which is difficult to replicate artificially, on top of carrying all kinds of ethical ramifications, and the capacity to be ideologically exploited.
Basically, a regime tends to operate like an organism, and will seek to perpetuate itself over serving its official function. Such a regime granted power to affect the reproduction of the masses will almost certainly choose to perpetuate those phenotypes which its operators believe can be most easily exploited to perpetuate and expand itself.
