Many still defend the use of monetary systems, like it’s some kind of magic necessity to make life worth living.
Now look at how people commonly react at winning the lottery. They are ecstatic, and often because the first thing think about is that I don’t have to work a wage slave job anymore or worry about having a roof over my head.
All this worry and suffering over having money that just hangs over people their entire lives, and when that worry is taken off it’s like a giant burden has been lifted.
Yet people at the same time seem so attached to the thing that enslaves them and everyone they know. They’ll claim money was some sort of radical advancement in trade that allows for the wonder and glory of this wonderful society we have now.
They’ll claim money is natural and neutral. That it’s just a measure of energy. All while billions suffer under its tyranny and basic social inequality money directly creates.
It’s as if they believe that humans are too stupid to find a way to cooperate together freely. Like we can figure out how to build complex nuclear bombs, but figure out how to cooperate with each other without coercing people into labor? Well that’s just too hard to understand. So hard apparently the kind hearted powers that be invest exactly zero effort into investigating. Evidently because they must think it’s impossible?
Yeahhh sure, that must be it.
