no
i thought the topic was selling used tim beanies
@Swedishmafia101 That makes you a good listener 😃
@Atkins All you can do is ad hom and strawman
Does it still make me ***academic***
i thought the topic was how best to deal with the deplatforming issue
he does tend to do that, although he has his right moments
Go earn some money. Conquer some markets for me.
that's easy, give them a platform
```I don't even know what sides there are right now :smile: much less the topic```
@Dr.Wol#9845
He's arguing that Corporations should do whatever they like and that we should not stop them because that would mean we use force, while ignoring that the Corporations use force.
I've even Linked this Article:

YOOOOOOO

@Swedishmafia101 only if sitting on an egg makes me a chicken
@Swedishmafia101 No, but most professors arent really academics anymore either. Being an academic more or less would require you to research and propose your own theories or understandings of said things you read or researched.
I think his definition of force is different from yours.
@Stefan Payne Strawman
No, correct .P
I GOT 1250 ON MY PSAT
He subscribes to the "I-am-not-touching-you-I-am-not-touching-you" definition of force
Does it make me ***cultured*** ?
as much as tim likes to lambast libertarians for "not wanting any regulations" any reasonable person think there should be reasonable regulation to ensure a healthy market.
In an ideal world, corporations should be allowed to do what they want, cuz people would be smart enough to just flip the market and support alternative platforms,
We don't live in an ideal world, so we need some leverage (the government) to maintain "some" control,
We lost that however as our governments are paid for by the very corporations the government is supposed to contain
@Swedishmafia101 Utilize the word Learned.
He may subscribe to that, but I subscribe to PewDiePie
LOL they used the comical fan art of Pewds that was in Pewdiepie's video
Oooh
Im out
@Zer0 You probablly are, just not the stereotype many have in there mind.
What fucking tools
I'm on both sides because I think that any idea that is uncontested soon becomes an echochamber that crawls up it's own ass to die, so I am all over the place because I think all forms of this need a counterpoint to anchor and balance itself
Imma call my girlfriend and tell her I'm a **LEARNED** person now
I am a radical centrist
i'm an analogue centrist 😉

Exactly!
Because in an ideal World, Corporations wouldn't do stuff that might hurt or even kill the User!.
But they do, they exist....
@Dr.Wol probably not best characterized as 'maintaining control' so much as some sort of corrective mechanism for the failure modes of capitalism.
I'm a fit centrist
