@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
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

yeah, i can agree with that Atkins
Information TERRORISM
In an ideal world Elon Musk made anime girls real
Capitalism is pretty good, but no human system is perfect. That's black and white thinking in a world of grey. All human systems fuck up eventually.
Its roughly what i meant,
Keep the market free, but if it starts becoming unbalanced, have government give it a little "nudge" in the right direction again
I quite college. started a business that made to much money to Warrant wasting it on a school that didn't have any teacher that could teach me anything. Sold the business to become a farming scholar. its winter so i now have time. to do scholarly things.
but not force it, cuz Government is bad at making choices 😄
its almost insulting to be called an academic. 😛
I love it when instead of debating ideas we devolve to debating how big brain we are
```Keep the market free, but if it starts becoming unbalanced, have government give it a little "nudge" in the right direction again```
Exactly my point. The Gouvernment has to look at the corporations that they don't abuse the Consumer and misuse them as well as the Market, so that they don't force other companys to do things their way.
Only an academic deals in absolutes.
well, thats a grey area already,
Who decides whats "abusing the consumer"?
