  • Pretty much any non-Marxist economists will favor “the market” over workers.

    Just going to point out that “the market” is people’s freedom of choice compounded across society.

    Neoliberalism, the predominant ideology in most western countries, is seen as an alternative to conservatism (very much so in the US), but they’re centrists at best, and conservative-lite at worst.

    It’s almost like political parties are tied to the values of their voters.






  • Beehaw is some pseudo moral purity echo chamber. They consider anyone with a contrary opinion a troll. People create these “safe spaces” under the guise of protecting minority groups, but fuck… I’m a minority, and I knew immediately I wasn’t going to be welcome there.

    People are free to judge it as they please.

    –edit–

    Why aren’t other instances having this problem? Like if trolls and spam are such an issue, why do I only see relevant on topic comments in other instances?

    The issue isn’t trolls, it’s political dissent. And if you care about the truth, if you care about having the ability to talk about and express your ideas freely to other people, to have uncomfortable discussions with people you disagree with, to be exposed to new ideas, and fuck… to possibly even change your mind, you shouldn’t support beehaw.

    If you genuinely want that type of environment, go for it, but that place should be called out for what it is.

    This type of political authoritianism is why I left Reddit. It kills discussion, and I’m here for critical discussion.
