[META] /r/badmathematics discusses Austrian economics
Author Summary
besttrousers is in META
Post Body

Finally, a /r/badx subreddit that we won't have a fight with!

https://np.reddit.com/r/badmathematics/comments/39i2me/austrian_economist_uses_logic/

Highlights:

  • "Oh god, completely ignoring that there is LITERALLY no definition for the supposed 'axioms' (so there can be no conclusions made), the whole thing is a mess. It is literally nothing more than putting symbols for words into sentences. There is LITERALLY no logic going on here."
  • "So E is both a proposition and a member of a set? 'Mutually' is a set now? What the fuck? It's like cargo-cult syntax."
  • "We put words next to each other so we must be able to also put symbols next to each other."
  • "Can you imagine if someone extended that reason to any multi-component system that mostly used observational methods? "Biological systems have bunches of things involved, so we're just going to deduce-out the entire field of epidemiology and reject empirical evidence.""
