I believe your comments is just a paraphrase of: “They are being stupid”
In my opinion this is a very toxic way of thinking and does not try to understand the arguments “the other side” presents.

Yes I have seen you in other comments. And we both know what is the actual state and level of freedom, poverty, and capitalism and corruption in China. Maybe organize a protest in China.
I know you like their system, but for some reason you fail to see issues with their system.
Correct!
Read all my statements again. And apply strict mathematic logic.
Few years of degradation of antitrust laws and some effective reforms in this year alone does not in any way prove your point.
I would not live there. I value freedom and privacy. (In a healthy European way)
This is simply not true. And whole EU is doing this more or less effectively. But your government has to be very very careful since this sure can happen.
In recent years we have seen degradation of this leash. But EU commission started keeping up with global monopolies.
I believe also in USA they are making some antitrust changes after a few decades of sleeping.
They have the most wild form of capitalism there is. And they married it with a lot of corruption and zero political freedom. This is not an alternative. Please.
About defending capitalism (and not billionaires - who more often than not abuse this system). Some of us lived in other systems. And we understand any other system is way way way way worse.
There are however a lot of problems with capitalism and should be held on a very short leash. Or else monopoly happens. The most effective actions to keep capitalism at bay: strong anti-trust laws, strong worker protection (this includes a lot of stuff), wealth tax.
And be aware there are many flavours of calitalism. Most commonly people in USA are the most extreme where you have really “long leash”. And people see such capitalism as failing and want to replace whole system.
I am bald with a beard and glasses. So everyone thinks I am their friend with the same properties and completely different face.
Mobile networks are awful and are very easy to spy on.
But the video is worth every minute.
Competitor with no content, users is not a competitor. Youtube should be forced to share content they do not own. Just for the sake of competition.
Because less rich and more poor people start donating blood. Due to how much health correlates with social status and money.
The mere existence of such buying blood organization has such effect on a whole country.
In my country you can only donate blood for free. But however for your charity government pays you a meal and day of work.
This “compensation” must be low enough and presented in a way people still consider it a charity. Otherwise it has described effect, and people who actually donate blood feel cheated. Also in my country healthcare is “free” and you can receive blood for “free” which seems “fair” to a person who is donating blood.

When people start getting paid for their blood, overall quality of the blood in such country suffers.
Every cloud is just another computer, but not every other computer is cloud.
Although I would vote for 3 days off work and 2 days with illegal mowing.
Having a collective day for rest? I find it very worker friendly. I find it fascinating we are able to agree we rest on the same day and we do not bother each other with noise.
Syncthing for me. It is not cloud though - but better.
Are we angry?
Maybe he is just feeding your arguments to AI and you argue with AI instead of him. 😁
But yes. As others have stated, you argue opinions. Not facts. And neither of you is really correct. You value different things. For example he values progress more than authors copyrights. And I find his points you mentioned valid. As are yours.
I however believe, you can agree on any topic with a “smart/sane enough” person with “enough time/motivation” and “similar enough values” as you if you are also such a person.
In that case one or the other will change his mind.
Those conditions are rarely met and the most important part is you also have to be open to changing your mind.
“I have an uncle who smoked whole life and is 98 years old” I am sure you know what you have been doing when you presented your “evidence”. Not cool.
