"Regulations" are not homogeneous, i think is Sun's point though.

SEC:

:geordi_nah: Do literally anything about 10,000 shit coin rug pulls

:geordi_yeah: Devote massive resources to crushing LBRY for no discernable reason except that Odyssey actually has some user adoption

It's the same anarcho-tyranny playbook the Soros DAs got: let bad actors cause chaos at will while using the state to crack down on good actors.

Can 8chan please get this 14-word phrase trending as the next white power dog whistle?

"Merit" in this case is judged subjectivity by each consumer at the point of sale, and incorporates many facets of the product, including ethical implications. If you don't like factory farming, you can pay more for free-range eggs. If you don't like plastic shopping bags you can buy a reusable tote. You can buy from a company that advertises their 100% recycled materials products, or their zero carbon manufacturing.

In this way, Capitalism adopts the ethics of whomever is paying.

What Capitalism doesn't do is force a single ethical framework onto other people; everyone with different beliefs, opinions, and preferences can all coexist in a free market. It is the epitome of true "diversity and inclusion".

People argue that the clients suck or that feature support is fractured

And then their solution is always to try to bootstrap an entirely new chat protocol instead of writing a competent, cross-platform xmpp cient 🤦♀️

Better than dropping bombs on Yemen I guess. Oh wait, we're still doing that too.

Lol, mine went on the attack when the camera got too close.

The existence of both a fediverse and a fedi bridge implies the existence of a fedi chorus.

I am broadly sympathetic to the view, although I find the emphasis placed on certain races in the h1b discourse to be both unnecessary to the discussion and offputting. I appreciate the inclusion of the second screencap where that is addressed somewhat. I do object to his labor theory of value claim where he says "libertarians should value people getting a proportionate reward to their effort". Libertarians should rather value people getting a propositionate reward to the value they create in the world regardless of the effort personally invested in creating that value.

At least I used to understand all the words.

If you took any "race realist" posts from the furthest dark corners of fedi and just find/replace the races they don't like with men, they would become indistinguishable from @EmmaFaber posts.

Except those years it loses 9% of its value

Computer build successful then?

Who doesn't want a bigger empire?

No. Without lore we'd've never gotten data.

UBI has been defended by capitalists as a way to stimulate the economy

Only in the marxist 'people who own companies' meaning of the word, not the ideological 'people who support free markets' meaning of it. Yes, many business leaders and wealthy elites hold (or purport to) 'champagne socialist' luxury beliefs.

Incidentally, ideological capitalists do not support government stimulus of the economy either. Corporate handouts are just as noxious to us as welfare.

Over-ear > on-ear

Marxist exploitation theory actually works if you just replace "capitalists" with "government".

I'm not excited for a new era of billionaire-owned media.

:ahhhh: :nevermind:

Pollster training for a new career??

I guess I just lack your optimism.
