  • 'Neoliberal capitalism' has contributed to the rise of fascism, says Nobel laureate

  • I wasn't calling Joseph Stiglitz a dictatorship, I was calling Russia and China dictatorships and they often use the same words to different ends. The fact that this is crossposted to Hexbear and lemmy ML isn't doing the post any favors, either, those places are flowing with pro-CCP propoganda.

    As much as this can be a productive conversation analyzing the faults of the system we live in to reform and fix it, it can also be used as justification for voting against our interests, violence, and subterfuge. It's unfortunate, but that is our context.

  • Well you can find various FCC lawsuits going back decades but nobody ever talks about any of that stuff.

  • In the USA, the FTC is actually taking grocery store chains to court over collusion and price fixing, presumably will target specific brands once more data gets released via the court proceedings.

    So there are government officials doing things about it, but nobody ever seems to give them any fucking credit and every few years we vote in new politicians who gut the agency.

  • I would be more open to these sort of arguments if they weren't being promoted or perpetrated by actual dictatorships.

  • a brief history of self regulation

  • https://theintercept.com/2022/05/13/baby-formula-shortage-abbott-bacteria-safety-testing-lobbying/

    The timeline is stricter regulations were announced in 2014 but weren't implemented because of lobbying, leading to outbreaks and recalls that the companies responsible argued were not related to their formula, citing reports of frequent testing done in their facilities. Those reports turned out to be falsified.

    If the regulations were put in place, then the facilities would have seen more frequent third party and/or government inspections.

  • You forgot the Baby Formula bacterial infection leading to shutdown of the largest plant in North America and widespread shortages. We actually had federal regulations which were repealed after the companies lobbied in favor of self-regulation.

  • It doesnt have to be hacked or cracked or decompiled or any of that.

    If you know what it checks for to see if a machine is virtual, you can change a couple settings and it can no longer tell that it doesn't have Kernal.

    It checks for like 5 flags and you're in. TBH it's not even that good at its purpose, just puts users at unnecesary risks.
