Death penalty is too good for them, IMO.
Yes, we should act like sophisticated apes and pummel each other with laws, hostile takeovers, and backhanded compliments.
Seriously though, the violence isn’t the problem: it’s the irrationality. Our legal system is based on violence, because there’s no other way. We don’t bat an eye when it makes sense (police arresting a corrupt bureaucrat). The issue is when it doesn’t. I’m actually not even sure this is one of those times!
Anyway, I find it so exhausting in politics when people try to kill each other with laws and bureaucracy. For instance, if the SCOTUS wants religious authoritarianism, wouldn’t it help to just be honest about it so we can fight to the death and excise the insanity? Just a thought.

Maybe we should.

Well, maybe they shouldn’t.
China has an authoritarian capitalist system with more billionaires than the US. They install nets in factories to prevent workers from committing suicide. Wtf?
Overfishing is horrific, but people get up-in-arms about whales because cetaceans are basically people. Think of the dumbest human you know: they’re about as smart as a typical whale.
I wonder if we could get a license to hunt whale hunters and how much that could bring a year? I’d jump at the opportunity to hunt a toxic invasive species like that.
They could always stop torturing pigs to death and feeding their lard to a population riddled with chronic illness.
The point is that the Chinese EV’s are being heavily subsidized. But we shouldn’t trade with countries that lack labor protections and unions anyway.

So true. And before that don’t forget that Earth didn’t even exist, because it was just a clump of dust.
What is this, mumble rap for science deniers? Just riffing this bullshit on the fly.
Florida was -200F.
Exactly, the closer you get to the equator, the colder it gets.
You don’t have to believe in objective tangible value. However, there’s clearly a difference between a vegetable farm and a cryptocurrency. The former makes something and provides services. The latter does not. These are extreme examples of market and value distortion. The very existence of crypto is a nail in the coffin of the neoliberal theory about rational markets.
It’s a ponzi scheme
I was trying to find the criticism you cited, but it must be buried somewhere under a mountain of praise. Could you explain what the nature of their complaint is? I’m out of the loop.
