Went from nice to rude in no time.

4chan greentext style over substance is cute, but its outdated and wasnt that funny a decade ago

if you have nothing to add, then why reply?

I have never been nice, but I admit I have no better literary device to concisely express my sentiment towards your flawed position, to put it nicely.

I am pro-regulation, where regulation for me is busting monopolies, preventing tragedy of commons, setting necessary quality checks, forbidding forced labor. I am against regulation, when it's chat control, 100% tarrifs on whatever, forbidding working on Friday past 17:00 and completely on Weekends. < Why do I even have to point this out?

There's no nuance remaining in this world, people (the proselytizing nerd types) emotionally attach themselves to sophistry that is the spelled-out economic theories, while completely disregarding common sense. Missing forest for trees.

In short - fuck America.

> I have never been nice,

first comment was both cheeky and had a "i agree" at the end. Those are both niceties. Not sure why I would have to explain tone from mild critique to being a wee cu nt in back to back messages

> I am pro-regulation, where regulation for me is busting monopolies, preventing tragedy of commons, setting necessary quality checks, forbidding forced labor. I am against regulation

What does any of this nonsense have anything to do with me replying to someone who had a basic question about the non existance of monopolies in unregulated markets?

I explained the basic mechanisms for monopoly creation which are all easy math formulas that happen in bacteria growth too because "if nothing stops me I eat everything" is equally valid in any env where there is growth

> There's no nuance remaining in this world

coming from anti-intellectual "oh you know chesterton fence" responses is pretty ironic.

Btw if you are going to call people out for using big words maybe dont come out with the most 17 year old "people arent as smart as me as they emotionally attach themselves to sophistry while I am a nuanced rational ubermench". It reeks of intellectual insecurity.

i asked for empirical evidence against the mechanisms of monopoly creation because moats, regulation and inelastic markets are the most studied and reproducible mechanisms in anture, economics and any growth env. The formula just converges to infinity
