Andrea Pascal @anodium.net · 04/09/2023Maybe the second definition I'm thinking of is based on "sapience" rather than "intelligence", which is something that is universally human. But I guess then that begs the question as to what the distinction is between sapiosexuality and the rest of normative human sexuality, hm... 000
Andrea Pascal @anodium.net · 04/09/2023Appreciating the art itself isn't what I was after in that example, but rather how the person shines through their work. Expressing oneself I'd say is (at least part of) what it means to be human, whereas test-taking ability (i.e. what IQ tests actually measure) isn't. 100

Andrea Pascal @anodium.net · 04/09/2023To clarify: I think the distinction is whether you're attracted to people possessing versus acting with intelligence. Simply wanting intelligence is just as essentialist as wanting light skin in a partner, but doesn't everyone at least get butterflies when they see a Feat Of Humanity like e.g. art? 000

Andrea Pascal @anodium.net · 04/09/2023Countercounterpoint: Just like defunding the millitary, defunding the police would free up budgets for more specific—and more effective—measures against crime, such as better mental health care, food & housing subsidy, etc. After all, you wouldn't expect a lawyer to do every possible job... right? 090
Andrea Pascal @anodium.net · 03/09/2023Granted, mustering the political will to make this happen at the policy level could very well—and might have to, based on who's currently funding elections—be a grassroots effort. But I think that it's important to distinguish between the two. After all, most commuters aren't pushing for new policy. 010
