Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

In Bad Country, people get murdered for speaking out against the ~~government~~ corporations.
Aka the real government
Lets be honest. the US government is like 5 or 6 corporations in a trenchcoat.
obviously an-caps are dipshits but how do they not realize that this fact entirely destroys their entire political platform? the government is bad because it gets in the way of corporations! my friend, this government is corporations.
Corporations exist only because of crony capitalism, in an ancap society it’s nothing but small business owners and entrepreneurs, is their unironic answer.
well, I'm sure none of those small businesses will grow faster and absorb the others leading to centralization and monopoly, so everything's fine.
They wouldn't because it would violate the NAP. They'll only grow up to a certain point and stop long before a monopoly, because reasons.
they're very silly.
'Monopolies only happen due to government intervention. They totally do not happen in a system where a bunch of rich people compete for the market and the winners get to have an advantage in further competition while the losers get to be pushed out. This totally does not lead to merging of companies and accumulation of capital in a few hands'.
