>It really is. On the one hand you have retarded leftists who want trannies and rapefugees, on the other you have retarded leftists who want nationalism and traditionalism
You don't understand what you're ranting about. Traditionalism and nationalism are not now, have never been, and never will be "leftist" concepts outside of your perverted libertarian fantasy land and that's all there is to it.
>both want to tell us what to do with our money, both want to tell us how our businesses should be run, both want to tell us what do on our property
That's called "civilization" to an extent. You don't get to do whatever you want all of the time because there are consequences to your actions. Too bad your parents didn't raise you properly enough to understand that.
>both are afraid of monopolies but aren't afraid of the government monopolizing everything for itself
You have more power over a government entity than a greedbag megacorp. I know that libertarians pretend otherwise, but their theory looks nice on paper and doesn't prove true in the real world. No, it's not okay for monopolies to exist because they kill innovation and competition. Yes, it is okay for the government to monopolize SOME services because it doesn't make sense for certain things like electricity and internet to be completely provided by a free market. It's less efficient and pretty much everyone but Austrian school kooks understand it.
>and supposedly all this shit is "for the greater good"
Better than letting huge ass companies do whatever they want and expecting consumers to fend for themselves or the quasi-religious invisible hand to fix things, that much is for certain, yes.
>Corporations won't exist under capitalism? Am I reading this correctly?
No. Their argument is that in le TRUE free enterprise no government capitalism, corporations can literally not organize.
Do they exist only under communism or what? Holy shit, I think this is what Yuri Bezmenov meant when talking about subversion, either that or your "ancap" friends were just fucking with the retard in the group, and you fell for it. (Holy fuck. No corporations under anarcho-capitalism? Seriously, goy?)
Not really and you're obviously too retarded to quote based Yuri like you know shit from shinola. It's kinda amusing.
>Define "corporate dickery"
Ever heard of Comcast? Electronic Arts? Bank of America? Are you 12?
>If the consumer really, really, REALLY doesn't want to eat shit that badly, then that would make for a really fucking great business opportunity for whoever challenges the monopolist, don't you think?
It sounds nice on paper, but again, they can't challenge the monopoly. They're too weak and small. When the monopoly finds a threat, they temporarily alter policy to snuff out the alternative then go right back to fucking over consumers. See what Wal-Mart does to small towns and what oil-rich Arab countries tried to do to American fracking.
>The question is, how long can the monopolist keep buying out that one faggot that keeps challenging his monopoly with some flashy new alternative, when it's such a cool business idea for them to wreck your shitty monopoly?
Pretty fucking long time, actually. Most Americans still only have 1 or 2 ISPs to choose from because monopolies maneuver to close out fair competition and the government refuses to regulate them properly for the public good thanks to dickass lobbyists.
>You think it's cheap to sustain a monopoly?
It's obviously worth it when it clearly happens all of the damn time unless the state does one of its rightful duties and steps in on behalf of consumers.
>Define "sane and functional society"
Do you have autism? You need electricity. You need the internet. Modern society doesn't function without certain technologies. So while they might not have some on paper "right" to them like the right to not get beaten or robbed, the consequences of not looking out for the little guy and making sure that everyone has access to hospitals with electric power, clean and free fresh water, quick communication, and the exchange of ideas makes for a shittier society. That isn't even up for debate anymore.
