The dropkick Murphy's put out an album called "This Machine Still Kills Fascists"

I saw them perform live on that tour and it was stuffed to the brim with talking about how great the troops are

The statement was with respect to "one man" owning everything on the earth, and whether there is a law that would stop this. And there is such a law.

Antitrust laws don't prevent capitalism or the violence it causes. I was just responding to your point about there being some sort of natural or legal conclusion to capitalism where one guy owns everything. That conclusion is easily avoidable and was considered over 100 years ago when they passed the first antitrust laws to prevent the railroads from owning everything etc. Your post didn't seem to consider antitrust laws.

What prevents capitalism from accomplishing this in law?

Antitrust laws accomplish this in law

To be clear I didn't go anywhere else; this is all I know (hexbear.net)
 

When the site goes down I noticed some folks go to other websites or even outside or something.

I just sit here staring at the browser waiting for the slop to return.

Imagine a line of riot-dressed cops getting hit with balloons full of really really cheap cologne (hexbear.net)
 

Obviously it would be treated by the police as some felony level chemical warfare. But with something as benign as cologne it has the potential to make such a response look excessive even to the brunch crowd. "It's just cologne" I can hear someone saying in the outdoor TGI Friday's seating area.

It's offensive smelling, sure. But it's not anywhere close to the same level as throwing other questionably smelling or gross liquids such as piss, blood, etc. And it's not even comparable to something like throwing milkshakes. No one buys a milkshake to put on themselves, but some people do buy cheap cologne to wear.

It's cheap and readily available to buy. Difficult to source/trace since it's so common.

From a physical irritant perspective it would just be miserable standing there in full riot gear with a headache due to buckets of cheap ass cologne being thrown on everyone around you. They can try and clean it but that shit sticks. It will go back to the station with them -- it will remain on their gear which the station likely won't pay to have cleaned. It will be in the vans that they all pile into. And it will go home with them.

Just a thought I had and thought it would be great to try in a video game or at the next gender reveal party.
