Logic: propoganda he ate up.

Stalling… what am I stalling? What are you talking about, man? Seems like you have plenty of time to waste. Oh well, I guess you’re not a very serious, introspective person.

My kind? What does that even mean? You’ve spent just over a day replying to me. You clearly have the time. I feel like a broken record, but why are other people obligated to put in the effort that you aren’t?

Like I said, man, you demand sources while offering none. Who are you to demand from others what you do not provide? Just some guy. Certainly, you can’t think that is persuasive or even a valuable use of your time?

And we’re back to you demanding things from people. You provide sources whe YOU make a claim. So, I guess we’ll see how that works for you.

My man, I’m not commenting on any specific fact. You demanded sources up and down in these replies, but you then also insist everyone google your claims. That is certainly one of the techniques of all time.

What the fuck are you on about? I’m commenting on your demand for sources while also providing none for numerous claims. Interesting strategy. You must have studied Plato.

‘Source for thee, but none for me’ is an interesting rhetorical strategy. Let’s see how it works out.

I vote OP take the meme down and repost it with Shiela Jeffries or Camille Paglia replacing the feminist…

I never claimed there was anything wrong with money? As far as I thought, I was arguing that it was a tool so useful it would be reinvented if a society did away with it.

I wouldn’t kill my neighbor? Was that too complicated an example? I think that money, like an axe, is a tool that can be used differently in different contexts. ‘Money’ isn’t the issue. How it’s used is the issue, which is why I think we would invent it. You don’t solve the ‘issues’ of an axe. You don’t solve the ‘issues’ of money. Capitalism uses stand-ins for value to harm people, but I am not convinced it’s an inherent trait of value stand-ins. I think LV’s are money, so I think you think that is true also.

I am aware of this. It’s functionally no different than a dollar bill. The fact that I intend to melt down an axe after I use it to chop a tree down doesn’t make it not an axehead. If I used that same axe to hack my neighbor to death, well, that’s a completely different use. In the case of communist ‘money’, I think we would cease using money to kill our neighbor.

Anything you exchange as a representation or substitute for something else of value. I think communism would reinvent what I consider money but wouldn’t use it as it’s used under capitalism.

I think if we eliminated money, we would just invent it again and call it something else.

Don’t take this the wrong way, but it’s hard for me to contain my incredulity: have you been asleep for the last decade? Has a very obvious pattern of enshitification not been constantly proven as a rule on the tech sector? And an article is… outrage?

Oh god, how will replace a completely basic word processor? Surely there are not numerous replacements?

I was getting off to adust my forks and avoid dropping my skid. My boss told me, ‘Should be fine like that.’ I listened to him, lift the skid, and it IMMEDIATELY tipped over. Your boss isn’t driving. You are.
