Just my thoughts #0768

False equivalency: A misleading comparison where the comparison targets are forcibly balanced while ignoring relevant differences. For example, claiming that banning guns also requires banning cars. Both cause harm to human life, but guns are designed for lethality and are closely linked to crime, whereas automobiles are meant for transportation and sometimes cause fatalities in traffic accidents as side effects. Comparing these two as if they are the same constitutes a false equivalency. Similarly, saying that apples and oranges are the same because they are both fruits and round is also a false equivalency. We are easily misled by such false comparisons. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

There is a saying that bears perform tricks and their owners have money. Ownership, and thus rights, are powerful when they become a platform. The odds of making vast sums of money from video creators are small. However, most of them need video editing, regardless of their profits. In fact, rather than making money for video creators, video editing software companies make money. There are far more ads in job openings asking for editors than for video creators. The more online shopping malls there are, the more money delivery companies make. Since business is a competition within finite conditions, the primary virtue of business is to be in the best position above all else. It must be hard to get into the wrong line and compensate for it with something else. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
