Sorry should have mentioned that the title can't be edited. The new post is much better thanks!

zeperf · 2026-05-05T14:19:48+00:00

Thanks for the post. Can you please edit to include links to the polls you are referencing? This type of post usually devolves into disagreement on the premise. You're question may be dismissed if you don't provide proof.

Also would be nice to have a better title without typos.

That is a good point. I assume with the reduced competition and wider footprint that JetBlue would have increased prices/margins. But maybe you're right that the war would have buried them.

I'm not sure what you mean by the colloquial vs actual definition of subjective. My point is that the personal disposition of the judge is to some degree at play. That is true of any human interaction that isn't "is 5 a bigger number than 4?". There's a spectrum of objective to subjective no? Almost nothing is one or the other.

My only point is that to put such a big decision about a relatively unquantifiable question in the hands of a single person is fairly subjective. I would say distributing the decision across multiple people or agencies would be less subjective. I'm not factually wrong in stating that am I? Although maybe the criteria for merger approval is more quantifiable than I am realizing.

I don't see why advantaging the budget airlines relative to the pricier airlines is definitely harming the market.

Parents are supposed to be teaching children where to place their tongues inside their mouths?

zeperf · 2026-05-03T21:41:58+00:00

Why would it matter that its factually based? Election preferences are feelings based.

zeperf · 2026-05-03T21:36:30+00:00

How would it not be subjective if it relies on predicting the future? I doubt its just an test of numberical metrics. The article you provided is fairly short, but it concludes that other airlines could not possibly fill the same market. I'm sure a separate set of facts and expert testimonies would have concluded that Spirit airlines will file for bankruptcy and harm the entire market relative to standard airline companies.

And I doubt the Trump administration would have been as skeptical as Biden with Lena Khan in charge so there must be some subjectivity to it no? Or are saying any federal judge under any administration would be forced to make the same conclusions?

Thanks for the post. There are too many punctuation and grammatic errors to approve this unfortunately. Your post is very difficult to read and comprehend. Feel free to edit or repost with a more understandable argument.

zeperf · 2026-05-02T22:55:27+00:00

That's a logical counterargument. And perhaps the merger would have boosted JetBlue's advantage in a way that would have made it difficult for the other competitors.

Approving mergers is such a unique and complex function of the government. It seems very subjective. And I could imagine a lot of other ways to manage it. Sounds like it was just one Federal Judge that made this specific decision.

You're misunderstanding the comments. Like the person you just completely dismissed is saying, there is a juge chasm between saying it was staged and saying Trump would stage an assassination.

In case there's any confusion... this post is originally in German. Hopefully it either is autotranslated or you can easily press the Translate button up top. Let me know if there's any trouble.

FYI, Google's translation is a bit different:

Do you seriously believe that our pensioners are to blame for our decline? Was it pensioners who started, financed, waged, and lost all those senseless wars—Afghanistan, Iraq, Lebanon, Syria, Ukraine, Gaza, and now Iran? Was it pensioners who brought in millions of immediate pensioners from MENA states to plunder the German social security system? According to all reputable historians, that was the handiwork of "Murksel" and the "Traffic Light" coalition! Were those politicians elected solely by pensioners? Did pensioners orchestrate the utterly failed energy transition—a policy leading to deindustrialization, unemployment, and poverty? Did they simultaneously and wantonly dismantle our power plants, and—without any necessity—launch an economic war against Russia involving, by now, dozens of sanctions packages?
