You can live just fine without any prediction market.
That's how you manipulate the flock of sheeps that can't use their brains.
But what should I say more? People are too retarded in this fucked up world and will never learn the lesson.

acknowledged. the uses that I find interesting are the more speculative ones, as in, far-out ideas, not riskier gambles. things like the bets that are proposed by the Long Now Foundation; although they only do bets between two individuals, and some of these questions could be interesting to watch evolve with live betting as quarters, years, and generations roll by.

on a personal note, I think you just need to be aware of your audience. there are definitely people both in SN and outside of it who might be receptive to your level of maximalism, without just dismissing you reflexively as some toxic troll. you're probably never going to convince anyone to abandon e.g. sports betting with one meme about them being degenerate gamblers, although I think your higher-signal text posts do stand a chance of getting some people thinking.
