There is no debate, traps are always gay, @Swedishmafia101
Hobbesian traps are just as gay, and imaginary.
I can't debate a conspiracy so I won't even try. Feel free to connect random dots however you wish.
@DrYuriMom what about this conspiracy theory?

I'm still trying to find a conspiracy as far as 23:00
Oh, that Hayek is far right?
Ok, at 25:00 I think I see what you're talking about
@Stefan Payne hmm, has it been a month?

IT's an argument the social media companies are not monopolies. Not to get the Gov involved and some ideas of what competitors might look like.
Tim's idea for a social media aggregator is in there.
get the gov less involved, always.
gas die gov
They might not be monopolies, but they *are* colluding. That has to end.
biggest issue is that payment processors are actively making competition impossible right now.
That can change tho, but right now its the biggest issue, not social media companies banning everyone not towing the line, thats just short term problem atm.
Only government can create monopolies, by definition https://youtu.be/76pWdExqfkY
Akanesasu Shoujou was nice
unexepcted ending though
expected more fighting
but it was a nice ending.
Was good
Change my mind 😉
halfthink, I don't think you can use terms in the original sense to disprove terms in the modern sense. Language is constantly changing, whether we like it or not, so the original idea of "monopoly privilege" while accurately only applying to governmental interference, doesn't apply to the modern conversation when discussing modern economics. collusion isn't a monopoly, it's an oligopoly, but still
Cant a company with enough freedom essentially have the power without needing to go through a government grant themselves the same advantages? In the right conditions?
such as Disney owning the city of Disney World, FL
or Scientology giving themselves religious NFP status after infiltrating the government to give it to themselves
whoever claims the land becomes the governor of that land.
US government owns everything inside US borders.
you don't own anything in the US
we just pretend we do
so the commies have already won?
no, because the people still put up resistance
ah
But they wouldn't be able to take your home legally if you owned it.
also technically we do own, according to our rights to privacy
no, we don't.
it's "owned until bought" basically as I understood it
There is no private property right in the constitution. in fact, it explicitly allows the government to just come and take your house.
until the bill of rights came along
It says the government should really pay for it, but if the government just comes by, gives you money, and takes your house when you didn't want to sell, is that really a valid transaction?
no, that is IN the bill of rights.
"just compensation" which is very vague
eminent domain
yes, very vague.
