How has this whole saga not been an obvious indictment of 'the free market?'

Big players shouldn't be allowed to gobble up all the resources needed by small ones. How is it not obvious that they need to wait until production increases to meet their needs before embarking on their little project?

No this is exactly what the free market is. Regulations that make things fairer for small people is communism.

Then give me communism bc this free market shiz aint it. Giving us the scraps that AI doesn't want is just nuts if we get anything at all. Esp since no one beyond billionaires want this ai crap

It's like a dozen people gaming ever one else for the rest of the chairs on the Titanic.

They want to buy the dip

What about regulations that make things fairer for tall people?

[-] Asfalttikyntaja@sopuli.xyz 6 points 1 month ago

That’s a whataboutism.

I apologise, but I am very anti-beanpole.

The free market means the market is free to fuck you. Yes you in particular 😅

mankind's oldest trade, but doesnt compare to the fact that in 1998, The Undertaker threw Mankind off Hell In A Cell, and plummeted 16 ft through an announcer's table.

There is no Free Market, that's just a myth they tell us to allow them to do whatever they want. They don't really want a true Free Market because it leads to Luigis.
