Zero sum means you lose or win things of equal value not the exact same thing
We argue different things
My argument is that all is fake and gay and the obvious loses are hidden by more abstract things
>we got competing shops
>we equally make 100 bucks per week
>suddenly you become more competitive (cheaper)
>now clients go more to you than me
>you make 150 i make 50
>now i suck dick on the side for 100
>we both make 150 now = net gain
Doesn't seem like i lost on a first glance but i pay an extra price
People argue that interest groups and nations game theory are not a zero sum game because everyone wins
The most obvious and easy metric to communicate is muh gdp
The worlds gdp goes up = net gain = zero sum is deboonked
But (mostly western) zoomers grow up with less young people, more crime, more expensive houses, paying money for boomers retirement not their own, less homogeneity, less prospects for jobs, less salary and i can go on forever than their fathers
It is hard to assign a value on abstract concepts like society trust
Is a billion dollars greater than to 0.01% of perceived society trust? Dunno but you feel it's concequences when it goes down
We just borrow money to infinity to pretend we didn't lose and push the consequences to the future or hide it in things like mass migrations, until the bubble bursts
Sorry for reading this i am about to sleep cannot be fucked to make it more cohesive
