for those who say "oh, i know, but people gonna do what they gonna do, let the market decide" - u are also an abomination

This is very curious to me. You see, in the famous words of Russ Roberts (which I may be making up) "It's not magic that bread shows up at the bakery." Markets make it so bread shows up, and so that there is enough of it.

When you get command economies that try to dictate or plan what sort of bread should show up where, they fail quite miserably.

So maybe the market for information is similar, maybe not. But, it seems to me markets don't see our moral opinions, they just see what people are willing to do.

If you want more sourdough, it seems clear that you should zap more sourdough, so that more bakers will bake it. That is likely the number one way to get more sourdough on the mainpage.

Probably makes sense to even downzap white bread or croissants or whatever it is you don't like. Starting a campaign to get others to do the same is great, too.

Going on about enemies and abominations and all that doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me. If you don't like markets, create a church. But you might find that churches don't make very good bread.

ever wondered why the frontal neocortex, the brain processing center of thots, is located in between the two temples? language has been carefully structured by the architects; the clues to creation and creativity are everywhere;

While I am a great enjoyer of linguistic mysticism, neigh unto alphabetic kabbalah, I would like to sadly point out the etymology of the English word temple
