Social Justice Fallacies by Thomas Sowell

A discussion of logical fallacies used as argument. Issues with arguments about equality being natural, with disparities that are ignored vs disparities that are used as arguments, the reification of groups of people that are constantly changing (the bottom quintile is never actually the same group of people from year to year and changes a lot over a decade), the problems in assuming that people being subjected to a policy will not react in their own interest in face of it, and more.

In this world, every kingdom has its borders and all within them bespelled. Does wonderful things for health, defense, life, etc.

I was pondering the mountainous regions where kings do not reign. I think, perhaps, that villages and even farms have smaller scale spells. This has consequences. For instance, the spells help protect against congenital health issues. Hence, there are rumors about children who are born with problems.
