Post I demand a separate economics forum
Self-explanatory. I’m not interested in discussing economics in context of politics, and certainly not only in context of politics. Most certainly not with politics prioritized.

I will appeal periodically, if you don’t agree, until you create a separate forum.

We are an inclusive community but that also means you need to show the demand for your content by other members and proof for active discussion for any of the said content. Once you do that we can create otherwise a thread (which already exists for you) is enough.

My thread isn’t about economics.

I’ll create threads that emphasize economics specifically rather than politics, or any political elements.

I don’t see a reason or need for a separate scientific forum, at least on this board (by comparison or example), which is why I made one thread specifically about the difference between science and politics (climate most especially and specifically).

For example, an inflation thread emphasizing economics rather than politics (perhaps in 2021 if I had been posting here).

You can move the threads to an economics forum if and when there is enough activity.

I will also make a note about the “law”, specifically political law and its jurisdiction, when appropriate (I’m limiting it’s jurisdiction; including in economics).

My plans for limiting and regulating the law are advanced. I’m preparing the beginning of implementation.

FYI, your opinion is completely irrelevant. You’ll create the forum, or the political forum will lose its ability to have relevant discussion about economics.

Sure. But enough activity by yourself as well as other/new forum members.

Ok, if people want to ignore economics, it will be their choice.

Also I’m not interested in your claims about “inclusivity”, or any of your irrational views or values. Economics need not be inclusive to politics, as science need not be, or mathematics need not be. It’s a forum that needs discussion.

Your choice concerning the economic and political discussion.

I’m about to actually post about how Trump’s schemes are nearing the limit.

I'd be happy to have an economics argument but you don't get your own forum since you would go outside of it like you do your own thread.

My posts outside of the thread are there because, intentionally or not, you and others are expecting or assuming I’ll post. I have no requirements to post, but I am responsible to address topics of ambiguity related to my other posts.

It’s your problem and your responsibility that you moved my other thread into this forum when I already explicitly told you and further warned you, beyond that, that I was not interested in politics. Your continued mistaken decision making is completely and totally beyond you ability to ever possibly take or accept responsibility for whatsoever. You are essentially begging for, and dependent on my tolerance when you have no basis, ability, or practical realism to do so whatsoever.

If I wanted to force you to comply, or comply immediately, I would do so.

As I said at the beginning of this thread, I don’t plan or intend to do so, rather, like I said, I’ll bump this thread, and appeal in the future when appropriate.

Also, I didn’t say it would be “my own forum”. If I wanted that, I’d write in a journal, or some other site.

My thread here is only for the sake of disclosure about what I would consider my topics of responsibility. The thread, again, is not political, or intended politically. I’d advise you not to interpret anything in that thread based on your human experience, or expectations or assumptions about human nature. I’ve essentially said all this before.

I meant a general economics forum, about economic current events. If you don’t think anyone would want to post there, I wonder why that is (I think you’re interested in trying to use the topic for your own political purposes or interests as political leverage because you want to prioritize politics over economics), but I can’t, and don’t want to make that decision for you.

I don’t know how to communicate to you guys that you need to stop abusing my pity.

There exists no right for opinion or opportunity free from reality, realism, or real responsibility. Your constitution has no ability or authority to operate without my tolerance.

Absolutely everything you think you know about human nature is completely irrelevant to me or my species. We are not going to have an adult conversation by the standards of my species; you’re completely, totally, and permanently unqualified until death or extinction.

In context of Trump’s Apple Tariffs, it has been determined that you will comply with this order in time. You will have no other choice, option, or alternative. You have no authority, or ability to fail compliance. Make whatever excuse you want, including to yourselves; it’s irrelevant to me (or my species), and it’s irrelevant as far as I’m concerned.

Otherwise, in the interim, economic discussion in this political forum will not be tolerated whatsoever.

Musk’s and Tesla’s declining sales in Europe, especially Spain and The UK, are a signal that the “old economy” political and economic paradigms, established mostly in Europe, but also America, will collapse. These political decisions are economically suicidal, and will ultimately hurt the liberal, socialist, and communist establishment more than Musk, Tesla, Tech, or the “new economy”.

Post Re: I demand a separate economics forum
Trump’s Apple Tariffs, are almost certainly his biggest, costliest, worst, most foolish, and most egregious mistake yet. He’s not only wasted any leverage he might have had on April 2nd (has this become an extended April fools joke? lol), he’s committed economic suicide in spectacular fashion. Almost every decision he makes, makes his position worse. He’s essentially out of good options now. Perhaps he should just eat his own tariffs, or wallow in his own vomit, if he feels like it. lol. This is what human denial, desperate overcompensation, false confidence, self-deception to silence insecurity, and emotional, impulsive retaliation looks like.

He obviously still thinks like a cheap real estate salesman, casino boss of questionable reputation, (even in his own circles of fame), headline, publicity, attention, and fame chaser, or reality TV show host. I suppose it all translated well enough into politics for his election. Anyway, he has limited economic experience, intelligence, and understanding in reality.

Flawed as Harvard, the Ivy League, contemporary liberalism, or their educational system may be, this is still the guy who tries to argue with math, statistics, and any possible, or tenable, rational common sense.

The $3,500 potential price tag for an IPhone is indeed a “fairy tale”, as analysts have said. He might have better luck with bleach and coronavirus. Republicans see him as a political warrior, but in real-world, serious situations, he’s the cute, video-game-character-like wannabe hero.

Apple alone could defeat the U.S. Dollar; Apple alone could defeat the Federal Reserve, Apple alone could currently win almost any economic war. Going to war with Apple is an even worse mistake than going into a trade war with China. At least the tariffs are only proposed at 25%, rather than 140% or whatever. They don’t have that far to drop.

Post Re: I demand a separate economics forum
Musk is essentially exiting the Trump administration, and public politics generally. He did not support the Tariffs, and began to leave the Trump administration and return to Tesla soon after. There were claims about Tesla’s board considering a replacement, but that article in the Wall Street Journal was written by anti-corporate interests, and I’m skeptical about their credibility. Anyway, Musk didn’t like the bad publicity, or political opposition and opportunism used against Tesla, and I suppose he decided than The Department of Government Efficiently wasn’t worth the cost.

Like I said before; these economic topics may involve my species, but are not necessarily about my species.

The pirate-in-chief now has moved to Steel Tariffs. I think that’s probably going to be his last major escalation. He’s running out of loot to plunder.
