Agreed, though I don't think the law protects independent artists who can't afford legal costs. I'm partial to copyrights returning to the "natural" creator of the work after X amount of years, allowing them the sole power of re-licensing their work.

Every alienable right you give artists will be taken from them by corporations enforcing contracts where they sign away those rights.

Nah man I just like to discuss and reply to stuff lmao.
We disagree on political approaches and you've jumped to morally high grounding and saying I'm fake and a fascist.
Literally doing the lame-ass thing I'm criticizing.

No, I am leaning into it. We should have a power disparity over fascists, who we bully. It is good to bully Nazis. Not all power dynamics are bad.
The Nazis want you dead, this is more than worth being picked on and humiliated.

Yeah you're not hearing me here.
We need to be aggressively mean to fascists, Nazis, and the enabling Neocons. Limply pushing them away isn't enough.
They do it to us and have made massive gains for doing so because people like being mean to "justified" targets (for the right: woke, DEI, etc).

I think the right has made massive gains with non-politically involved people in large part due to bullying the left, and that trying to highroad the right makes you look lame/weak to those non-partisans (look at establishment Dems calling for bipartisanship and civility).
People want fighters.

Bullying is socially shunning and signalling that certain people or behaviors aren't allowed in social circles or to belittle those views
Its not only good to do to far right lunatics, but its absolutely necessary to do since it gets less politically aware people to side with you.

I reiterate, if cold climate places can do this for block heaters that are necessary for cars not to die, we can do it for electric cars, which are less reliant on home charging than gas cars that need block heaters to not die.
The battery doesn't need charged every single night.

If plug-ins for block heaters in cold climates are doable, so is slow charging

Yes and that's also a problem :). Everyone should be informed.

Classically this takes form of a tax on unused land with the idea being that land shouldn't be an investment in its own right so that the above image doesn't happen.

Looks like we agree since I'm also arguing against restrictive zoning

Land is litterally the original and most pure form of monopoly my guy.
It needs to government to stop it from being an investment opportunity.

So wouldn't it behoove those who want to make the most money to constrict supply as much as they can as the demand is inflexible?

So the original statement stands, as it's fair to not entertain unrealistic and non-existent scenarios when discussing the present.

I've always been of the mind that it should be framed as: "Yes there are systemic issues, what are YOU going to do in spite of that?"
