Do you ever get tired of being angry at everything?

Did you run though a field of wheat like Theresa May?

You make the patents too easy to get and it fucks the little guy over as the big corps hoover up all the ideas. You make them difficult or impossible to get then that also benefits the big guys over the little guys as they will just steal people’s ideas and produce them for cheaper with their existing infrastructure which creates an even bigger monopoly.

There is a sweet spot that society is trying to reach. It’s imperfect like any system but it’s far far better than having no system.

You’ve not even considered that in order to get a patent granted you have to disclose your invention to the public which stops big corporations hoarding too many trade secrets.

All in all, the idea that patents shouldn’t exist benefits nobody except the large corporations. Say goodbye to start ups growing in size if that is the case.

Just because something seemingly doesn’t interact with EM fields doesn’t mean it isn’t there, it’s just something that only really interacts with the rest of the universe on a gravitational level.

We have gravitational evidence. We can only ever infer the existence of anything. An example of this is we didn’t actually see the Higgs Boson we just deduced it’s existence from the cascade of interactions that happens when particles collide. Similarly we can deduce from the gravitational evidence that dark matter exists.

It’s all fine calling patents bullshit until you start getting large corporations stealing technology from small and medium enterprises.

The way to ensure that large corporations and no small businesses can thrive have an even bigger monopoly is to get rid of the patent system.

Tired of this shit on Lemmy. Do your homework.

We don’t because we have experimental evidence for it’s existence.

Just how though? How does this get agreed upon without some threat of violence or top down hierarchy.

We do pick an in-between. The people complaining about capitalism just don’t realise we live in the in-between.

I’m 14 and this is so deep.

It’s completely garbage economics. Some innumerate people think that printing money indefinitely won’t lead to hyper inflation.

it doesn’t matter, any controlled substance

If that’s what you got from my comment you have serious reading comprehension problems. I am against the war on drugs.

Dictionary.com “any controlled substance whether sedative or stimulant”

It’s literally a definition. I’m being downvoted for being correct.

Merriam Webster “any controlled substance, whether sedative or stimulant:”

Merriam Webster “any controlled substance, whether sedative or stimulant:”

You’re actually wrong.

Merriam Webster “any controlled substance, whether sedative or stimulant:”

Merriam Webster 2nd definition “any controlled substance, whether sedative or stimulant:”

Almost entirely is NOT the same as entirely.

I didn’t realise the DEA were the only people who could define things. Outside of the US it can generally refer to illegal drugs

Are you telling me Merriam Webster and Dictionary.com is wrong? Things can have colloquial definitions
