Football violence is very real though. Let’s not forget that and make sure we are in good safe areas when out.

I’m sure my friend took me to a place that he knews had good people in it knowing I’d wear my country’s shirt.

I guess that’s a problem with trying to have discussion with trolls, they just repeat a script and are unable to engage with the actual points being made.

Couldn’t have said it better myself.

You said that in response to me talking about how “startup culture” has developed in the US. Can you stay in topic for a single comment?

I just explained to you why many startups in the US fail. It’s in the comment you just responded to.

The only clown here is you, so used to the makeup you can’t even remember it’s there.

“Occupied korea”, still laughing at that one. Thank you for outing yourself like the koala you are.

At least we can both agree that we wish you could live in the USSR during Stalins era.

I’ll be honest. I was going to stop after you seemed to think millions of people get severely affected by startup companies failing.

But I powered through until I reached “occupied korea” to which I assume you’re talking about South Korea.

There’s nothing to gain here. “Quarterly targets” is your idea of underlying mechanics? Holy shit. This reminds me of the guy arguing about food with someone that drank their own piss.

“Vassals of the US empire”

You’ve departed reality a long time ago.

I was in the UK, watching a football game between my country and England in a pub with an English friend. I had a team shirt on. It was a good game, a close game, in the last few minutes we lost and England won.

I Shake some hands and go to the bathroom. I have to shit, go to a stall, and just as I’m about to close someone pushes the door open, forcing themselves in. Life is flashing before My eyes, my entire body shakes from all the adrenaline now pumping, I’m ready to fight or die trying.

He says (drunk off his mind) “YOU STOOD UP DURING YOUR ANTHEM! I RESPECT THAT! GOOD GAME!! GOOD GAME!!” as he reaches to shake my hand and pat my arm, “yeah man good game, sorry but I need to shit mate”

I thought I was about to die, stabbed and beat to death in a toilet. When it was just a drink Britt trying to be nice.

I’ve never been so happy that my country lost a game as that night (Mt shirt also bought me a lot of beers, felt like I needed them after thinking I was about to die)

So you are focusing on the US in particular. And no. All information here is not applicable to all countries in “the west”*

The US has a long history of non regulatory practices. Yes. They have plenty of short sighted companies that thrive on short term high risk strategies to gain fast expansion to which they can then fall to for more controlled growth (at least that’s supposed to be the plan). Partly due to how bankruptcy laws and business loans are stipulated.

The consequence of failing dramatically isn’t that severe. You can just try again.

But this falls back to what you seemingly cannot comprehend. “The west” is not the US. The US is not “The west”.

And US have plenty of companies that are very boring and engadge in long term plans where short term losses are accepted as part of long term growth. But like I’ve said. You won’t find them in your feed because it’s incredibly boring and normal. Just like you don’t read in the news about Jonathan that had 2 sandwiches for breakfast. It’s not newsworthy.

You’ve offered very little explanation of anything. More akin to. “It’s this way because I say so, oh and its the underlying mechanic of all global trade everywhere”, I’m not sure why you’re trying to claim i don’t put in any arguments. There is plenty of them. But you elect to not adress any and default to some kind of insult because you have nothing to respond with.

I’m not screeching for details. I’m asking you to provide any at all. You speak in these globally broad terms because hey, at least they will apply somewhere. But things are just not that simple.

My reading comprehension is just fine. But if you have nothing but insults to strike back with. That says more about you than me.

*I assume you consider all countries in “the west” and by “the west” I also assume you mean every country located west of Russia and North of South America. Feel free to correct me if that assumption is wrong.

Yeah you have not interest in anything that has to do with reason.

Underlying mechanics. Such as what exactly? What underlying mechanic are you referring to that is the same everywhere? You want so badly to dumb it down to a level you can understand but it’s just not that simple.

You’re trying to derive a problem without considering that you might just have more than 1 root.

And I’ve explained to you the mechanic of “short term investing to maximize profits” are just buzzwords you use. Like a child saying words they hear on TV without understanding their meaning.

Can you for once actually be specific? What industry? What country?

What money back? I told you i live in a social democratic welfare state. Education is free for all citizens. But I’m sure you have a degree in economics and know better. Right?

We see different crashes in different sectors, in different countries for reasons so much more complex than i can explain to you here. You’re talking full on course material. Not that you would care to listen anyway.

So which one are you referring to exactly? Which country to start with. There is not one singular capitalistic system that encompasses them all. Reality is more nuanced than that.

This is proof of how you are being dishonest when you keep referring to “the west” and “the capitalist system”. You’ve been on lemmy preaching this stuff for how long exactly?

You are so clearly projecting here, it’s not even funny.

And that is another fantastic “nuh uh. You are!” What a response.
