A fuller explanation why an emotional reaction is often still the apropriate action.

you don’t suppose that whole “europe” thing you so staunchly support could be manipulated by those same wealthy people, do you?

sometimes picking a hill to die on is more about dying than hills.

[smoldesu]

Why would wealthy people support a bill that universally limits the capacity of wealthy companies? To... enable better competition and limit the provenance of Gatekeeper businesses? And that's bad for citizens?

You're welcome to explain your theory more but I don't think the thumbtacks are lining up on your proverbial corkboard.

> sometimes picking a hill to die on is more about dying than hills.

Microsoft quit being so picky once the DC District Court ordered a company breakup as an antitrust remedy. It's shocking how fast companies can transition from arguing over dying-hills to begging for their life.

[catchnear4321]

oh goodness, why would wealthy people care about a single bill? this was never a single generation game.

also rather offensive that you make such an accusation. you’re incorrect, but will you even admit the assertion made so casually?

[smoldesu]

What's more suspicious to me is that someone would make a seemingly obvious assertion but refuse to explain it. Help us understand what you mean instead.

[catchnear4321]

so you won’t then. you are forgiven.

it’s important to stop playing silly games of red versus blue from time to time. but carry on.

what star are you from? or would you say the whole circle.
