"I am not going to actually explain what I think people are getting wrong. I'm just going to pretend I know more than everyone else to give myself a false sense of superiority."
Economics is a whole field of study. You expect me to teach a University class in a web forum thread?
You're choosing narratives over listening to experts. I'm not an expert on economics, but I've learned enough to know that best case leftists are grifters, and worst case they are true believers that might actually try to implement economic policy without consulting with experts.
I guess we'll need to wait and see on Mamdani.
I'm expecting for you to say something by way of explanation. "Some Rando Lemming said so" is not going to convince anybody.
"If you cannot explain it simply, then you do not understand it."
If you had specific questions on how things worked, then you might be able to learn something. You're not going to learn anything by through snark.
If you had specific knowledge you wanted to impart you might be able to teach something. You're not going to teach anything through snark.
You think if you come into a random thread with vague statements calling people ignorant while providing no actual information we're going to rush to sit at your feet asking questions? Either make posts that actually have useful information in them or fuck off.
