And it's fine dude, it's just being realistic.

the fact is that they do, but we can't get a politician in power who isn't bought by a mega corp.

It's clear. They bitch about Trump for 4 years straight (regardless of objectively good or bad policy) and then bring Biden to the table.

Yeah, mega corporations have subverted our republic and has destroyed our free market. And the laws meant to prevent this are never enforced due to the politicians being paid off by the corporates. They've made people so reliant on media that people can't tell fact from fiction either.

right on

I'm all for a free market capitalist country, but Libertarians and Conservatives need to realize that monopolies are inherently anti-free market, things won't change until the elites are stopped.

Agreed. how can you vote with your wallet when they're getting a free pass to dominate the market

Exactly! It's close to impossible to boycott and hold monopolies accountable due to their grip on the industry and public influence.

right

take comcast for example.

Locke's proviso even justifies Monopoly busting when you read into it.

Why are they my only provider? Because they're only allowed to build the infrastructure

What's Comcast?

I assume they're an internet or phone provider?

Yes

Here are you from bud?

How does the free market prevent monopolies @MrAgentOrange

@Wheeze Western Pennsylvania, we use AT&T out here

Comcast is absolutely massive, how do you not know what it is? lol

@terry It doesn't, my argument is we need anti-monopoly laws

@Wheeze Guess it's just something I need to look more into

also I don't think conservatives are for free market

@terry Yeah, I suppose you're right, they're honestly just for a less regulated mixed economy

I think the regulation is varied from conservative to conservative

That is also true, conservatism can be very broad

Liberalism is just a progressive shift, Conservatism is to keep things the same, and Reactionarism is a regressive shift. These very broad ideologies change on their current political environment, which makes it hard to define. I'd describe the casual conservative more like a classical liberal who's too afraid to admit it or else they'll be called a libtard.

I have yet to see an actual Conservative politician.

But it's possible I just haven't looked hard enough, I could always be wrong.

🤔

That's unfortunately very true. I wish the people would stand up and do something about this.

I hope to become a politician and political figure to inspire change, but by the time I get there it may already be too late.

LOL

its never too late to overthrow the government

@Deleted User This is true. Tyrants deserve the bullet.

But the right wing sadly has a culture of all talk and no bite. Instead of crying about the outcome of this election, we should use this time to see how we can improve and provoke the right wing to try more drastic measures.

I'm becoming a communist if trump loses

If things keep degenerating I might become anfash or Hoppean

egoism isn't looking too bad

Meh...they just call everything a spook

true
