It is not offset. If you bend together you don’t buy the next dumb thing.

Bending together is the only thing that can create change, billionaires won’t.

I said

Both are possible. How should the choice be made which one to use?

I think that clearly is not an argument for middle ground.

I have no point. I just want to know how those things should be organized if not as businesses. USSR had businesses, so to work without them, something else must be used to link everything together.

like logistics, actuary/risk assessment, and public relations

Yes. How should all of that be done?

You ignore your own power. It’s two tigers who have to cooperate to escape a burning cage.

No.

But that doesn’t scale. How should society organize for mobile phones?

Not for every, but how do you handle the transactions to design, build and operate a mobile phone?

How do you organize society then?

So, how can society overcome the rift?

I am not arguing for a middle ground but for choosing one side and fully committing to it.

Only that I argue that we should choose one side or the other entirely.

If you don’t tolerate someone else in society then you are no longer tolerated.

You can only do that if you control society. If you don’t then intolerance towards nonnormative behavior becomes also a possible strategy.

except the people insisting on making it into a fucking issue

Which are enough that society is split and there is no unity to prevent the planet from burning.

It’s one way to call them stupid and wait until they change their mind. I think it’s better to recognize that they insist on their way with the same determination. So instead of waiting forever, we should find a way to overcome the split.

This can be turned around. The planet is burning and you want to fuck around and argue pronouns.

How should unity be created? By tolerating everything or by surpressing everything in public?

Both are possible. How should the choice be made which one to use?

It is no secret that a large proportion of the wealth accumulated by Dubai merchants comes from smuggling gold bullion (mostly from Britain), Swiss watches and Japanese cloth into Pakistan and…

Gold flown from London’s bullion houses like Johnson Matthey and Samuel Montagu to the The British Bank of the Middle East and the First national Bank in Dubai played a significant part in making Dubai what it is today. Shipped out by Arabs, Pakistanis and Indians in dhows to Bombay and other ports like Kutch and Calicut in western India, it brought much wealth to the merchants and the larger business community of expatriates who had made Dubai, home. The narrative of oil in the Persian Gulf has largely overshadowed that of gold and underplayed its significance in linking Dubai to the international economy.

Our entire system needs to be torn the fuck down and be replaced with something entirely free. I don’t even give a fuck about people abusing the system at this point.

Yes, that’s not the point.
