That seems like a big jump, right?
How do you get from public announcements of layoffs (ostensibly based on failure of several movies), to market inefficiencies from governmental subsidies, to forced labor camps?
I’m so lost.

- babypuncher 4y agoI didn't think I was the one being cynical in a discussion where someone equated better standards around hiring and layoff practices to forced labor camps... It's not even in "slippery slope fallacy" territory anymore. It's like arguing that kids throwing rocks in their back yard leads to earthquakes.
