Any time you simplify someone else's argument to "things you don't like" or "people you like", then you're deliberately ignoring their reasoning for liking/disliking it. Hand waving it away as bonkers feelings is intellectually dishonest.

So in this case, if you like somebody who does the thing, and want anyone who does that to be exempted... then you just want the law to be different. And we have a few ways of accomplishing that.

Companies that are incompetently led will fail and companies that integrate new AI tools in a productive and useful manner will succeed.

Using AI to lobby for bailouts? Very clever!

If the system's purpose is what it does, and not what they claim to want, then we'll have to agree to disagree on that.

That wouldn't work for long. The more we came to rely on clean free Tesla power, the less he would spin.

Fair enough. I'll start just calling it that instead of "communism".

Then maybe instead of calling it "communism", we should call each version something that reflects the actual system and not the end goal? "Vanguardism" maybe?

Do we need a decentralized DNS too?

Pure communism = A stateless, moneyless, classless society. Not simply whatever we're doing to try to get there.

Pure capitalism = Anarcho-capitalism gives way to its final form, Arachno-capitalism.

Did you want to trust a central authority for your Social Security? It'll get censored! /s

They should just publish every SSN at once with names. That'll make them useless as "secret" numbers and useful as identifiers.
