  • Yeah unironically a western-centric take by OP.

    Remember: the United States and your precious media is on the same periphery in non-english speaking countries as they are to us.

    The US influence on other places is outsized, sure, but only when compared to other cultures influence on us, not compared to local culture.

    I think their point was that in a way, patents are supposed to be more equitable because it allows the inventor to meet their basic needs by being the one to invent the patent.

    There’s also the argument that while innovation skyrockets after a parent opens up, there would be less incentive to invent new things if Walmart could just copy it for cheaper the day after you show how you make it.

    Or people would be super secretive with instructions for how to make their products that innovations could die with their creators since they have no incentive to release it.

    Nah, you’d probably want to do some research into who is the one actually funding people like trump and who in the U.S. government is fomenting these forever wars that are funding the war lobby.

    Trump and Elon are the mouthpieces and distractions for where the real money is coming from.

    Were there any superman comics that were just about the Clark Kent personality and him using super hearing or this example to find a story and then having to find the right leads and ask the right questions to find the story that he already knows is true? Cause I would read the hell out of that.
