@connoruru @Harry_W25 Kind of already happens with the EU internal market, currency, aid projects and I struggle to see a world where Germany, France, UK etc don’t have individual relationships with other powers. I agree in principle tho and would like to see more unity in the face of new America

@notmom69 @house_of_trad @libsoftiktok Surely a trend, would make 0 sense for the person posting this to curate the images specifically for the purposes of narrative. The men never have an angry face and the women never look serious. Of course!

@joshtenet My favourite part is where he learns a whole new style of music that basically no one else uses cos he found something written in a scrap of paper or something

@EHarswa @Nena_Abosi @theWEniverseis1 @comradesanchez You’re making complaints about the nature of power that don’t really relate to the climate crisis. But realistically I think you actually can see the material strides being made by China when it comes to climate

[Coaster @ContentCritic2]

@EHarswa @Nena_Abosi @theWEniverseis1 @comradesanchez It’s always about power. I don’t see your overall point. Nothings set to change - the powerful will rule and abuse their position. But Cleaning up the climate seems like a decent thing to centre it around.

@GabrielSerial98 @aaaaahhhhhahhhh @PamphletsY And alienation of the worker? Surplus value? Use value vs exchange value? Do you honestly think he’s had one of the largest impacts in academic history without getting anything right,

[Coaster @ContentCritic2]

@GabrielSerial98 @aaaaahhhhhahhhh @PamphletsY The gap between the richest and the poorest has continued to widen
Concentration of capital in the hands of fewer
Economic crisis where overabundance clashed with labourers purchasing power (Great Depression and more)
Globalization of markets

[Coaster @ContentCritic2]

@GabrielSerial98 @aaaaahhhhhahhhh @PamphletsY Secondly, as I’ve been trying to tell you is, it was a natural monopoly before the state codified it anyway - this is just reinforcing what I’m telling you, capital amasses wealth and power and uses that wealth and power to manipulate the state into self regulation and legitimacy

[Coaster @ContentCritic2]

@GabrielSerial98 @aaaaahhhhhahhhh @PamphletsY The definition of “natural” is seperate to the state involvement. It can be a legal monopoly while still being a natural one - the legal being its legal definition while the natural being its economic makeup definition (1/2)

[Coaster @ContentCritic2]

@GabrielSerial98 @aaaaahhhhhahhhh @PamphletsY Why would I bother, you’ve not read the material. Just post wherever you’ve got your info and I can get a more thorough analysis, rather than middle man who doesn’t bother with the source, reeks of intellectual laziness 👍

[Coaster @ContentCritic2]

@GabrielSerial98 @aaaaahhhhhahhhh @PamphletsY It was a natural monopoly anyway. Check your defs, I get why you think it sounds like what you’re describing, but it’s not. If you can’t operate because you physically can’t compete with the infrastrutcture, it’s a natural monopoly.

[Coaster @ContentCritic2]

@GabrielSerial98 @aaaaahhhhhahhhh @PamphletsY I can’t imagine disagreeing with something publicly before I’ve read primary source material. It’s alien to me. It’s the stuff high schoolers do.

[Coaster @ContentCritic2]

@GabrielSerial98 @aaaaahhhhhahhhh @PamphletsY You’ve never read the source material so it’s impossible for you to have had an original thought on these, no self respecting person argues with someone who hasn’t read source material on the topic, you’re as well posting wherever you’re pulling watered down criticism from👍

[Coaster @ContentCritic2]

@GabrielSerial98 @aaaaahhhhhahhhh @PamphletsY That’s a made up definition but even if it were true, entirety of Scottish sewer network was owned by Scottish water beforehand - people would have had to create their own spanning infrastructure which isn’t feasible. That, incidentally, IS the definition of a natural monopoly

[Coaster @ContentCritic2]

@GabrielSerial98 @aaaaahhhhhahhhh @PamphletsY Also being unable to finish a PAMPHLET that was written for partially illiterate workers is fucking embarrassing. Why are you on here giving 2, 3, 5 critiques at a time for something you can’t possibly claim to know about - BECAUSE YOUVE NOT READ THE AOURCE MATERIAL. STAGE ONE

[Coaster @ContentCritic2]

@GabrielSerial98 @aaaaahhhhhahhhh @PamphletsY I’m not interested in someone critiquing something they’ve not read. There’s plenty of good critique by people who do their hoemwork, why would I waste my time with someone who hasn’t read the source material for. Child mentality.

[Coaster @ContentCritic2]

@GabrielSerial98 @aaaaahhhhhahhhh @PamphletsY He made no distinction between corporatism and capitalism because he was writing about capitalism. But corporatism CAN be a form of capitalism, though it also can be a seperate thing. What’s your point? Are we a free market capitalist society or not?

[Coaster @ContentCritic2]

@GabrielSerial98 @aaaaahhhhhahhhh @PamphletsY What point are you trying to make? If capital regulates itself because it has ammassed enough material and political wealth, it’s arbitrary who allows them to do what - they’ve achieved a monopoly through capitalism

[Coaster @ContentCritic2]

@GabrielSerial98 @aaaaahhhhhahhhh @PamphletsY Scottish Water. In my job every pipe laid in this country has to comply with and be added to the Scottish Water Network. The Scottish sewer system, and as such the Scottish sewer market, is entirely closed and operated by SW. it meets the definition of natural monopoly.
