You've had this explained to you endlessly already, but you're determined not to understand. It's because the point of society isn't to root for bad businesses failing. It's to ensure the just treatment of all people. If you don't have that, you do not have a civilization. You just don't care about that because you care more about pretending to be superior than about cooperating to build a society of value.

Isn't it justice for bad businesses to fail?

[–] Olhonestjim@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (8 children)

LOL wut?! Businesses aren't people.

No, the market does not give a flying fuck about justice. That's why we have a government.

The business owner will get rich, kill the company, then sell off the tattered remains, all while poisoning the groundwater -- and the market won't do a damn thing about it. The workers you don't give a shit about deserve justice, good jobs, and fair treatment. That rich man deserves justice, to have everything he owns seized, including losing his freedom. A business is a piece of paper. It can't feel a goddamn thing.

You and the market would just let them get away with everything they do, so long as they got rich. Those robber barons absolutely love bigoted suckers like you.

Businesses aren't people.

Where did I claim that?

No, the market does not give a flying fuck about justice. That's why we have a government.

Wrong. Government meddling is in fact the main reason why the market doesn't correct itself as fast as it could.

LoL ok.

Now explain how diversity, equality, and inclusion ruins everything.

[–] MacNCheezus 1 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Because it's diversity for diversity's sake. It encourages people to maximize on their unchangeable attributes like skin color or sexual orientation instead of any actual skills.

[–] MacNCheezus 1 points 1 week ago

Ah, good argument. I'm totally convinced now and will immediately change my opinion.

[–] Olhonestjim@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I don't believe you have the guts to admit when you're wrong and change your mind. So why waste any more time with you?

[–] MacNCheezus 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

You haven't presented any evidence for your claims so I don't see why I should change my mind.
