how about santa? children believe in him
how do they stop believing in Santaclaus?
i hardly think they refused to change their minds
Politics is way more powerful than religion
same thing
People change their religion to suit their politics
people change their religion to suit their sexual needs 😛
Jonathan Haidt talks about this in the Righteous mind
must be true then
Yep, he has a whole lot of studies and psychometrics backing him up
There's a reason why he's the most famous social scientist.
spooks

FTFY
Everyone needs to read Coddling of the American mind
truth is what the popular people believe
Depends on what you mean by truth
peoples personal feel of reality
If you mean objective truth, then that's just wrong
Everyone needs to read the progressive era

summerize it for me
important take away: big tech wants to be regulated, and you shouldn't want them to be.
Why would they want to be regulated
cuz they can afford it
I can agree with that,
They'll just pay off/loophole the system, but its keeping new businesses out who can't compete with those regulations
summary: only government can create monopolies
The question is can you even regulate them constitutionally
ofc
you just change the constitution
It ain’t that simple
yeah it is 😉
People wouldn’t want to change the 1st amendment just to regulate big tech when there are free market solutions
1A has nothing to do with big tech
postmodernism fixed the constitution problem, there are no facts, only interpretations.
^
facts don't matter, only "personal truth"
I see things MY way, hence i'm correct
The whole reason they’re allowed to ban people indiscriminately is 1A protection
They aren’t a government entity so the government can’t tell them what content they must allow
1A applies only to the government, not non-government entities (such as companies/corporations/people)
