#UnlearningEconomics

2 hr 41 min video (long!)

A methodical debunk of Sowell. I point out here that the much glorified Sowell engages in behavior standard to conservatives and its Koch network ilk, persuasion through mendacity: logical fallacies, particularly through defamation or vilification of their targets (also known as false witness).

In short, Sowell engages the normal strategy of neoclassical argumentation

Alle reden von der #Demokratie als hohes Gut. Warum gilt das nicht auch am #Arbeitsplatz? (Und nein, ein #Betriebsrat reicht da bei weitem nicht.)
Wir brauchen keine Chefs, die uns sagen, was wir zu tun haben.
Wir brauchen keine #Eigentümer oder #Gesellschafter, die den #Mehrwert unserer Arbeit einbehalten.

Eine Antwort darauf sind #Kollektivbetriebe . #UnlearningEconomics Video zeigt #Studien zur #Arbeitsdemokratie :

@TechConnectify At least #UnlearningEconomics acknowledges the video in an aside, but why leave the section in at all? There have been lots of cartels throughout history! Find a more clear-cut example! It's not difficult!
Watching the latest episodes of #SomeMoreNews and #UnlearningEconomics after watching the @TechConnectify episode about the lightbulb cartel is maddening. Do they not watch #TechnologyConnections? They should! Do they not care about the points made in the video? They should! AHHHHHHHHHH

I’m an anarchist, but if I could force the entire left to watch this one single #UnlearningEconomics clip I would.

really having trouble getting though #UnlearningEconomics 's latest video against surge pricing. like ho boy do i not care about the "equality" between people who can regularly afford a rideshare/taxi ride. and besides this pseudo-egalitarian bullshit means that there will also be now windows of low demand that make the service more accessible at times than it would be with inflexible pricing. well i'll listen to it fully on my walk now, letting you know when it changed my mind 😅.
