Well, like everyone who "criticizes capitalism" online, they leave it as an exercise for the reader to imagine the concrete entailments of what they vaguely propose.
And when you try to, it’s always “um where did they say that?”
If you're going to bring up capitalism in your crusade against... recommendation systems... I think it's fair to ask you to workshop your genius idea a little more past the shower thought stage.
You can critizise something without having to provide alternatives. I dont know why people like you or gp feel the need to become so defensive about it.
Capitalism is the status quo. Like any other system ruling us it should be discussed in order to keep an intellectually honest discourse [1].
Yup, thats clear for everyone.
Whats not clear to me is how you got what parent was writing into saying that people shouldnt get paid for their work?
It is obviously true that the problem of massive amounts of shitty media being sold to consumers is capitalism.
You do understand that critizising capitalism is not the same as saying ”lets all be communists”, right?
