debt is a concept not a ‘material form’
Tell that to the bank as it forecloses on your house rendering you homeless.
The concept of debt is literally trade with a delay. I give you thing now, you give thing to trade for later. Because you don’t give now, you give better thing then I gave you later
Man, “who wants to breed me” is a weird thing to consider.
Like breeding implies some sort of “excellence” doesn’t it? So like if I heard a random woman shout that in a bar, my monkey brain would go “ooo, reproduction!” But my human brain, depending or not of my state of mind at the time, would be all like “what qualities and benefits to humanity do you have?”
I hate to break it to ya pal, but it’s more likely to be said by a guy to another guy.
oh.
ooooooh ok
Maybe they just want to make the pug of humans or a become a human gachapon dispenser. Doesn’t have to strictly be the best, speaking for a friend.
You know what though, no shame to her. If she’s up for the task that’s some serious work.
I honestly never thought I’d be the type to have many kids, but after having mine I can see where it would be incredibly fun to have a lot of these guys running around.
Although, on a serious note, I think it’s because I’ve come to a new idea regarding kids in our era. A lot of people talk about the “well I didn’t agree to be brought into this mess” and “boomers ruined it for all of us.” I’ve always had a less pessimistic view of humanity. Not ignoring that we aren’t serious monsters to eachother and the planet, but humans adapt incredibly fast. I have this irrational idea that if I can raise kids with the same values and empathy I have, then they will too.
If the people who work to better society have kids that better society, maybe we’ll have a better future.
This statement implies that we’re born with debt through no fault of our own? Which, well, as a metaphorical debt to society, sure, but not in any literal sense? Your literal debts are not tied to your existence, they’re tied to an agreement you made, if even under duress. Sure, you can argue that you’re forced to go into debt for one thing or another, but it’s not really the same thing as just being inherently indebted.
Remembering their name, OP is sadly infamous for their bad faith memes with tenuous relation to reality :/
I’ll have what Karl is having…
I don’t have a breeding fetish, but like, I get it.

That’s Original Sin my guy, you’ve gone full horseshoe and are spouting the same nat-c delusions from a different angle.
They are not agreeing with the concept, they are explaining why debt is just a form of original sin.
Also horseshoe theory is a thought terminating cliche; you can compare the similarities of opposite things without the framework of “anything far enough from status quo is the same”
They do a real shit job explaining why Debt == Original Sin then. If you were born in debt it would make sense, but most people choose to take on debt, even if it’s a Devil’s Bargain, unlike being born with it!
I very much agree Horseshoe Theory is usually “both sides bad” bullshit designed to discredit varying views, but sometimes it’s right, and morons with opposite views can reach similar conclusions by virtue of being morons.
Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk
I don’t believe nations should exist.
