I know what the Sherman Antitrust Act is. I'm asking you to cite anything at all, a section of the law, an application in a case, anything, where this law or any other could be interpreted as prohibiting these layoffs. I'm sorry, but if the argument is that ~1000 layoffs is somehow impacting competition in the industry, that's just not convincing to me. And again, you want to argue that other impacts of this acquisition impact competition, that's entirely reasonable, but if you're hinging all of this on the idea that a couple thousand layoffs violate the basic text of the Sherman Antitrust Act, I do not believe your interpretation of that act is correct.
Seriously, asking someone on Lemmy to cite case studies. Ridiculous. Companies have staffs of people they pay millions of dollars for to do legal research and you expect to get that for free on Lemmy? Go pay tuition for law school if you want more info
I literally cited the law dude, you're just engaging in conservative bot troll rhetoric now.
You haven't cited anything that actually applies here? Like, at all? If you think the two small snippets from Sherman make your argument for you, I don't think I'm the one with a legal understanding gap. And per your other message, I agree with you. I don't usually ask for something like that, unless somebody is making a really strong claim that needs backed up, which is the case here.
Fwiw, I really don't care about you proving yourself right or not, so feel free not to. The merger is already through, and the regulators obviously agree with my interpretation of the laws. If you have something stronger to cite though, I'd be happy to hear out your argument. Otherwise, we can just call it good and agree to disagree.
