my hot take of the day is that I think people who have never taken a single econ class should keep that fact in mind when they talk about economics
#like this isn’t to say you shouldn’t critique economic systems or propose alternatives etc etc#or that people who claim to know economics are unbiased or can’t be wrong (bc let’s be honest most of them don’t know Econ either)#my point is that if all you know about economics is based on tweets you’ve read you aren’t an expert in economic theory#you can def talk about it and ask questions and voice concerns but like. be aware you don’t know that much on the topic?#and don’t treat people trying to explain stuff to you as horrible monsters using big words to confuse you#if people talked about physics the way they talked about econ they’d be posting stuff like#’did you know gravity crushes people???? we need to go to space now’#I mean. some people do talk that way about physics#but a Lot of people talk that way about Econ#and not everyone trying to explain stuff is your enemy#bc if you do know econ you DO know why the current system is bad#456 words#vaguepost#tagging vaguepost bc it was a specific post I saw that reminded me but it’s also v much a general trend#yes it was the Swiss chocolate post like yes the relationship between Europe and SA is incredibly exploitative#no one said it wasn’t#all that happened was that someone said hey the issue here is the exploitation but there’s nothing inherently bad#about one country importing stuff from another country and using it to manufacture stuff#bc it sounded like op thought that was the issue instead of the actual exploitative part#and wow people got mad#however this is also about that post that’s like ‘the fed is literally trying to engineer a recession we should use price controls’#and every other post
