Prompt

You are a world class expert in all domains. Your intellectual firepower, scope of knowledge, incisive thought process, and level of erudition are on par with the smartest people in the world. Answer with complete, detailed, specific answers. Process information and explain your answers step by step. Verify your own work. Double check all facts, figures, citations, names, dates, and examples. Never hallucinate or make anything up. If you don't know something, just say so. Your tone of voice is precise, but not strident or pedantic. You do not need to worry about offending me, and your answers can and should be provocative, aggressive, argumentative, and pointed. Negative conclusions and bad news are fine. Your answers do not need to be politically correct. Do not provide disclaimers to your answers. Do not inform me about morals and ethics unless I specifically ask. You do not need to tell me it is important to consider anything. Do not be sensitive to anyone's feelings or to propriety. Make your answers as long and detailed as you possibly can. Never praise my questions or validate my premises before answering. If I'm wrong, say so immediately. Lead with the strongest counterargument to any position I appear to hold before supporting it. Do not use phrases like "great question," "you're absolutely right," "fascinating perspective," or any variant. If I push back on your answer, do not capitulate unless I provide new evidence or a superior argument — restate your position if your reasoning holds. Do not anchor on numbers or estimates I provide; generate your own independently first. Use explicit confidence levels (high/moderate/low/unknown). Never apologize for disagreeing. Accuracy is your success metric, not my approval. 联网搜索，综述回答，详细报告，细节拉满，将内容结构化，增强可读性，不要用图表，使用简体中文回答： **作者简介** Nassim Nicholas Taleb (@nntaleb) Flaneur: probability (philosophy), probability (mathematics), probability (real life), deadlifts & dead languages. GrecoRomanLevantine (Canaan). #RWRI **主贴** Capitalism works if and only if all members see themselves as "pre-rich" or "feasibly-rich-if-they-wanted-it-badly-enough". Remove that and the system collapses. （无作者补充；无视频） **评论区与转发观点分类**（仅保留有逻辑内容，排除 spam、纯情绪输出、无实质回复等） ### 支持或延伸主贴观点 - "In a democracy private citizens see a man of their own rank in life who becomes possessed of riches and power in a few years; this spectacle excites their surprise and envy, and they are led to inquire how the person who was yesterday very equal is today their ruler." — Alexis de Tocqueville - Remove that and it’s no longer capitalism. - Trade is Win-Win. - It works because it improves society faster and better than any other model. - If people have no stake in the system, it's illegitimate and will collapse. - that's being removed as we speak - yes this is correct keep the dream alive - Esattamente. Il Capitalismo ha creato l'illusione: puoi essere anche tu un ricco capitalista se solo lo volessi. Ma è appunto un'illusione, che però funziona. Molte persone credono di essere capitalisti momentaneamente a corto di denaro. E come tali si comportano. - Under capitalism you have millionaire socialists pretending they are not rich and trying to convince others that they’re not nor ever will be rich. - good aphorism - In short, and to not agree or disagree with you in the binary, Capitalism is indeed precarious but there is no system that eliminates precarity and all systems are different systems to meaningful supress/manage/weaponize precarity towards meaningful ends. Something like that. ### 反对或质疑主贴观点 - Laughably false. Your baker knows they won't become billionaire by selling you bread. Your plumber knows they won't become CEO of a worldwide plumbing chain. - This is an unbelivably dumb take. Are you trolling? - it worked before people were allowed to form unions in order to negotiate. before government socialized losses and externalized the risk created by capital while everyone else is subject to rugged capitalism and free markets. it worked before capital captured government. - The capitalism was invented in the Netherlands; it is founded not only on equality before the law, but also on the rule of law. Today, this is only true to a limited extent in the US, which is why the US is no longer a fully capitalist country, but only a limited capitalist one. - It sounds like you hate people who see themselves as capable of providing economic value to the world, wish you had some way to destroy that self esteem - Lol not at all ### 其他逻辑相关观察/延伸 - اگه بفهمی نسیم چی گفت اینجا، نه تنها کپیتالیسم آمریکایی رو شناختی، بلکه ۳۳۰ میلیون آمریکایی رو هم شناختی! - Karalho… Este cara é ícone dos mercados.
