    Okay celebrating shareholder value I get in an indoctrinated pure* capitalist society.

    But praising a monopoly? Wasn’t that one of the main points capitalism should prevent?

    The free market brings about competitors when they are needed.

    Which does not hold true in reality due to various reasons and dynamics like entry cost…

    Edit: These two are related as monopoly -> big shareholder value. Still the free market should prevent monopolies. Sooo Ahhh.

      You’re assuming the indoctrinated ever bothered to learn what they’re celebrating as opposed to cheering in capitalism like it’s their favorite football team.
