This is what neoliberalism does. It privatizes everything, including the individual. Everyone is a product. Everyone has a "brand".
Right liberalism is about individual rights, economic freedom and freedom in general. Left-wing countries will give big tech more power cause they'll have advantages over other companies and groups cause they have the money to pay for unnecessary laws that the left likes and they'll be friends with the government. In countries even more on the left the problem will be the same but added that you won't have any economic freedom and individual rights, small groups and companies will most likely not exist or die in the minute they're created and you won't be able to support them cause you basically doesn't own your own money and the money will he spent on useless taxes that you supported. Your ideas give big tech power, you're not the resistance but the perpetrator. Big techs have grown more and more as the world has become more leftist and you insist in not noticing the base of your mentality is helping big tech.
Wow man, bet you think it's the LGBTs fault too and that the EU is some leftist place with less freedom than the US.
Travel a bit, helps heaps for people like you, I mean if your freedom includes stuff like holidays...

ouch, right in the freedom 😁
Right wing countries do this. What do you think South Korea is? "Economic freedom," is freedom commensurate with economic power, which means freedom for people with money, and "personal responsibility" for people without. The opposite of government regulation of business is corporate domination of government. You're conflating these opposites to falsely align organized labor with "big business." The entire right-libertarian political project is a smokescreen for the Kochs and their economic class to baffle morons into thinking the policies they want benefit the little guy.
I really wish to know how people having total control over their lives is some evil capitalism conspiracy.
A company can only thrive above all others without good products is if it has support from the government or is a company owned by the government, right-wings want to reduce the State as much as possible while the left often wants to give the State more power. I don't know how you think people having control of their money instead of giving it to the government for them to do whatever they want is some conspiracy by the corporations but you must note that the last thing a big company wants is that the people have choices and control over their own money, they want people to be babysitted by the government and that they're their own choices. We act with the principle that anyone can be bad and the power can corrupt people so we work for the power to never be concentrated in the hand of one person or group.
You're right, True Capitalism has just never been tried!
We already live in a true capitalist society but it's fastly leaning to the the left. People were happier in the past and capitalism was full on its tracks and countries were more conservative.
are you talking about the years of economic prosperity in North America after the New Deal, the end of the second world war, and the establishment of the United Nations? are those the small government policies that created "real capitalism"? or are you talking about the decline and destruction of global communism at the hands of the Reaganite social order that immediately preceded a half century of malaise and the destruction of the working class? this conversation cannot produce anything for you if you cannot come to the realization. don't wince. open your eyes and turn your head to the mirror, stupid american. the corn syrup teeth rotting out of your head are the reward they gave you for winning.
You like mental gymnastics.

Why's everything gotta be about money? Good things happen without it. Rain falls, feeds a fruit tree, makes a fruit, I eat it, poop out the seeds, new fruit tree grows. Money doesn't fall from trees, but I can't eat money.
The whole system is poorly prioritized to protect people's things instead of people. Even then it does a poor job and only protects the things that belong to those with the most things. It's not even about those people, just their wealth, because if somebody else got their wealth no one would care about them anymore.
I don't care about communists or capitalists or any ists you can name. To hell with Mao and Thatcher and Lenin and Reagan and Trump and Biden. Fuck em. My question is why can we always find money for war, and for rich people to do stupid shit, but never enough for health care, or food for hungry children, or anything like that. Fuck anybody okay with hungry babies.
Eating and apple and pooping out the seeds might grow new trees, but none of those trees are likely to make apples like you ate.
Money is a convenient way to trade your work or skills for someone else’s. Like the guy who grafts apple tree scions together to make the apples that taste good grow in their orchard.
Now when the guy who knows how to grow hood apple trees decides he doesn’t want to compete against anybody else’s apples and squashes them, we have problems, and need rules to keep that from happening.
I like how you equated money as a goal to money as a tool and that because the latter is a good idea then the first one must also be a good idea.
I found this list of true-to-seed fruits and vegetables I thought you might find interesting. I found it on The Spruce.
Certain heirloom apples, such as Antonovka
Polyembryonic mango seeds
Lemon
Lime
Orange
Peach
Papaya
Apricot
Nectarine
Heirloom tomatoes
There are tons of other heirloom vegetables, I don't know why they only mentioned tomatoes on their list but yeah.
