And does it apply to other economies? I can explain further if need be.

    Yeah its called unemployment but the market left reality a while ago. So its not playing by the same rules. The rich just want to get their money and get in their bunkers built before the planet too far gone.

      While true, it’s important to keep in mind that the market can stay unrealistic longer than the ones betting against it can stay solvent. I don’t mean that as a prediction, but as a warning that “crashing any day now” can easily mean in ten days, ten years, or never.

    That is basically the zero sum economy theory and it is exactly wrong.

    Because we add value to the world when we build and grow, it’s wrong to think one gain is always another’s loss.

    Many moves are net positive, even if one group loses. Some moves are neutral. And many moves are net negative, we can both destroy and build. This is the key to realistic assessment of what moves to make and support.

    Zero sum economy BS leads to terrible selfish behavior or nihilism. Fight it. We can build it better.

              So here ok? I am not taking sides in any of this. How come it seems with regime change people in power still shit on the Kurds? Are they really that much of a problem? At this point aren’t they kind of like the Nomads of the middle east searching for a home?

                yeah I’m ok here , if its about my country I prefer the info to be open , also I don’t know how lemmy messaging works the notification just get lost they are shitting on none Syrian kurds only , they posses a mentality of establishing their nation with what ever means necessary which reminds of Israel and they also support Israel not to mention they came here during the war and no one agreed to them , Iraqi kurds are aren’t that bad too but there are some kurds who never spent a day before in an Iraqi or Syrian society they come with great hostility even towards Syrian/iraqi kurds so there is that Syrian Kurds have a home and its Syria , they has every right that any Syrian has and in all fairness your Average Syrian Kurd is propably better than the Average Syrian none-kurdish person , met alot of them in college there are also Turkish kurds who think Syria should be a base for their military work against turkey , and don’t care about every one else kurdish or Syrian kurds Syrian that is do have a home , thats Syria and they are living in it facing the same problems every other Syrian is facing , there is no difference between a Syrian a kurd as long as the kurd is Syrian
