This sort of position is part of the reason why monopolies are such a hard problem to address.
At one end, it's all inherent in capitalism. We can't address anything without transcending capitalism, the nation state, etc. At the other end, it's all inherent in capitalism. We can't address anything without destroying capitalism, the nation state, etc.

- SQueeeeeL 6y agoThose both sound like the same position. Your also ignoring the third position (which is the best one)! Accepting nothing matters and allowing capitalism to control the world and that megacorps are eventually going to steamroll all of us. At least then we'll have cool bladerunner cities (probably kinda awful for all the human beings, but at least we don't have to question the status quo)
- sudosysgen 6y agoWell, nothing matters but I don't like to get steamrolled. Also, it's kind of interesting how in our circles it's legitimately easier to imagine the world ending than for capitalism to end.
- dustingetz 6y agoI'm saying that we just have to wait. Governments have been consolidating and will continue to consolidate and society will become resilient to these problems like it is resilient to everything else, & probably in time for your kids to see it. In the meantime, hard problem is hard.
