I am just trying to record what you think "antitrust" means. What do you think should be recorded? What history do you think is being rewritten?

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_antitrust_law

Start with the Sherman act and then see that "what antitrust means" has had a long, changing history. By the way, the European understanding of antitrust still includes harm to competition as well, which often pops up on HN (e.g. how does Facebook's action harm consumers? That was not the question!).

Yet, you have lots of people in this thread claim that we have always been at war with Eastasia.
