Wait, phone companies still offer pager plans? TIL
42·16 days agoThere’s a few reasons. Firstly greed is a motivator, and people work hard if they believe they’ll receive more for more effort. This gets people to go out and generate the resources that need to be distributed. Second, fungible tokens allow people to trade on the open market instead of having to find a particular person who is willing to trade say, a worm gear for a bale or two of cotton. The token is the middle man that allows someone trying to sell something sell to someone who doesn’t have what the seller plans to finally trade for. That’s why money started to exist in the first place.
Even in a communist system, there needs to be a way to transfer the results of labor into the things a person needs. Money is that way. Even if it means everyone gets the same amount of money to buy what they need. Everyone’s resource needs are different. You can’t just say everyone gets the exact same everything.
Finally, we’re not post-scarcity. Not really. Until resource manufacture is so automated that it doesn’t require people to do labor to acquire it, we either pay people to do the labor or we force them to via slavery. For that reason alone, we need money.
True. Radio is word of mouth, and the other forms of media are even slower. When one can sit down and doomscroll tik tok for an hour and be exposed to orders of magnitude more information, things are going to change more quickly.
UBI. Not only is it viable but it works in improving everyone’s lives, not just the people receiving it.
You’re assuming they knew what they had been ordered to do had anything to do with this. I highly doubt they did. Odds are they didn’t even know the survivors were speaking at the time.
40 years ago and before, slang had to travel by… get this… word of mouth. Now one obnoxious tik tok influencer (and the word is valid because they do actually influence others) to say something for a 12 year old to make it the new thing in her school, thereby infecting an entire town/village/planet. it’s skibidi if you ask me. And I’m 55.
School mass shootings. For some reason the rest of the world loses their minds over them.
Obviously considering the context, they don’t. An assassination isn’t stochastic terrorism, and nobody on the left is calling for violence. That’s them. So the accusation is a confession in this case. This post is literally stochastic terrorism, and a call for violence.
