(Sorry for interjecting on your post but it’s such a great example of psychologism versus incentives, it’s hard to let the opportunity pass.)
INTERSECTIONALITY: The study of intersections between forms or systems of oppression, domination or discrimination.
Or in economics (real social science, not pseudoscience) we call it the study of formal and informal institutions, and the competition between heterogeneous interests, in markets for association, cooperation, reproduction, production, production of commons, production of polities, production of group evolutionary strategies.
IDENTITY POLITICS: A tendency for people of a particular religion, race, social background, etc., to form exclusive political alliances, moving away from traditional broad-based party politics.
Or in economics (real social science, not pseudoscience) we call it ‘kin selection’ and ‘rational self interest’ because the cost of in-group cooperation(opportunity) is lower and the return on in-group signaling higher. The long term consequences result either in small populations and nationalism or large populations and castes. This is because our biological differences are extraordinarily differentiating in all markets for cooperation.
THE GRAMMAR OF INTELLECTUAL FRAUD
If suggestion, loading and framing are present in a discourse then it’s not science, it’s pseudoscience. All human behavior is reducible to the same laws as that of the physical universe: defeat of entropy. Emotions are just our reward or punishment for success or failure in fulfillment of those laws. All speech is either descriptive (in economic terms) or coercive (in psychological terms). And therefore truthful or fraudulent.
There are only three methods of organizing human beings (coercion). 1) Force, 2) Compensation, 3) Ostracization (guilt, shaming, rallying).
Truth is the only reciprocal compensation among those choices. Everything else is ignorance, error, bias, deceit, fraud, or predation.
