    Yes. I’m not saying it’s not monopolistic behavior. I’m saying it’s not a government sanctioned monopoly.

            Just stop. This is the same bad faith rabbit hole libertarians use to say the government is all violence, from safety codes to taxes.

                Damn and I nearly made it the whole year without this stupid shit in my life. Oh well, there’s always 2025!

                May you never learn what state sponsored violence actually looks like.

                  State-sponsored violence isn’t just concentration camps and gulags. It includes toiling your whole life to create IP for capitalists, while they profit by simply owning it.

            Lol, are you some sovereign citizen‽

            The world doesn’t work like that. You can’t just say “No that thing isn’t your! I didn’t agree with it being yours.”
