mircea_popescu: so thus, i roil against equality, especially as contemporarily misunderstood.
mircea_popescu: like the guys living in houses they can't afford to match all the other "equal" guys who also.
mircea_popescu: but it seems to me the false idea that "we're all equal" is at the root of the problem. obviously in reality we aren't. but the pressure of confirming this ideology makes people hurt themselves.
mircea_popescu: this constant temptation to substitute things for cheaper, easier, faster pseudothings is like our contemporary cancer.
mircea_popescu: daytraders trade actual companies. these differences are important.
mircea_popescu: dexX7 no, that's not a daytrader. that's an noobtrader.

mircea_popescu: most people buy by price, with tiny fluctuation restructuring their consumption. this pushes producers to control costs, which leads to substitution, of actual ingredients with chemically derived erszatz.
mircea_popescu: but the argument is not to entirely, the argument is to majority.
mircea_popescu: your argument runs into the very ample majority of price argumentation in the fcmg sector.
mircea_popescu: that doesn't change the fact that "20p cheaper" is actually a criteria directing lives.
mircea_popescu: the20year3 im not the guy comparing prices in asda you realise ?
mircea_popescu: it does, sure. but i don't care, i have money and i don't believe in feeding everyone.
