Hello World!

We have done it! We opened the first openly anti corporate community on lemmy.

The description has been carefully crafted but still needs a lot of work so feel free to suggest additions and give feedback. We will add rules and other stuff eventually.

The discussion in here should remain respectful. People who defend corporations are still people. Please be kind. If they use rhetoric instead of arguments they will be banned anyway.

Please report and kind of trolling and what you suspect as propaganda. Our definition of propaganda is the following:

Propaganda is communication that is primarily used to influence or persuade an audience to further an agenda, which may not be objective and may be selectively presenting facts to encourage a particular synthesis or perception, or using loaded language to produce an emotional rather than a rational response to the information that is being presented.[1] Propaganda can be found in a wide variety of different contexts.[2]

This is taken from the wikipedia.org article. We dont interject if someone is just passionate but if the language they use suggests that they are trying to get around making good arguments, we will.

We’re happy to have you here. Feel free to post something.

Have a great day! :)

    Sure mate. Feel free to contribute more nuanced ideas like x% of global money supply. But that has the downside that the central banks effectively work for the billionaire class so they will just print more money and make companies be able to become bigger. Printing money becomes obsolete if there are 1000x more companies in the world because of so much competition. Prices would plummet tomorrow.

      Yeah it’s very complex. I do agree that if actual competition were present, prices would adjust, but if the money supply is high then prices inevitability increase no matter how many firms are in a market. If the money supply is fixed, then 100% agree having caps on firm size would drive competition to a lower equilibrium since more firms would be introduced (assuming raw supply would be reached)

      I think this is the hard part of having a money supply that in theory is infinite, it makes balancing macro equations a fool’s errand or always passed off to future generation which is also delusionally hopeful

      But since this is our reality, we must deal with it
