Anarcho-Capitalism ahoy! I won't be surprised when, give or take three decades, Razorfist starts acting like the right-wing version of Alan Moore.
In all seriousness, he's right that, in practice, antitrust laws nowadays suck, and are now just an exercise of jerking off money and playing favorites. His faith in the invisible hand is just foolish, though: sure,
eventually every monopoly blows up, but the question is whether we just allow it to blow up in our collective face, or at least try and have a nearby bomb-surgeon (gubment) attempt to disarm it.
At worst? The bomb-surgeon's a malicious idiot, and it blows up in your face. At best? You don't have a bomb anymore.
I won't be discussing the topic here - that's not what this thread is about.
Notes on Danny Boy's appearance and technicals
-His head frock was styled fabulously. No sarc. He had it nicely styled and set.
...However - I'm seeing a SIGNIFICANT retreat of Hadrian's Wall. I predict in a very few years fucker will be looking like Maddox with a (long) mullet. This is the beginning of the end. Start bathing in Rogaine.
-Audio was (finally) leveled close to correctly. My biggest complaint regarding mass-media is the complete disregard for the viewer's audio comfort.
-His lisp was somewhat controlled. Though, during one particularly difficult sentence, the lisp reared it's head.
-Nice lighting, but same shitty gray filter and stupid apartment background.
-The musical outro was nicely chosen. Finally something more melodic.
8.5/10: better effort than usual.
Danny's Oration
-Well delivered
-Salient points re: MS, Google, and Twitter (should have continued with MS and IE vs. Netscape...)
-Missing more relevant references and progressions of monopolies. Rockefeller would have been an excellent example for him. The Bell system was a bit stretching. It's structure progressed from private corp, public corp, monopoly, state service, busted monopoly, and everything in between. Not arguing his points - but Ma Bell ain't the best. There are other examples.
-I didn't see any formal embrace of AnCap, that's in your head. He didn't even make a 'black or white' argument that logical fallacy is your own.
-No examples of why we need to hate lobby groups.
6.5/10: Poor examples of modern monopolies and 'ebil lobby groups'. Come on, modern history is ripe with these worms and their efforts. Hell, look to the Roman Empire if you need to...
Final Score:
7.5/10: The first bite is with the eye, however, the palette was left wanting.
