A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
To all the people here ranting about monetary debt: its not an issue. Money isn't designed to hold value in the long term. It's a feature, not a bug.
It's just really unfortunate for those who play the game as if money were an asset. It's meant for transactions, not for storage.
would you sign up to my pyramid scheme if I was a cat?? π₯Ί
Your honor I assure you, I am not a cat
Yes, but you're going to find the same thing with Communism.
Too many shitty greedy people at the top, too many plebs with fuck all at the bottom.
And while you may be thinking "I could live on a commune, spend an hour a day growing our own food and have all that time left for whatever else I want", you'll quickly find you can't grow your own 65" OLED television or whatever other comforts you've become accustomed to.
The billionaires need reining in, and better distribution of wealth all around the bottom, but capitalism ain't going anywhere.
Communism isnβt the same as a tech-less agrarian society
This is the ideal shower thought imo. Concise, absolutely true, and something you wouldn't realize on a daily basis (at least not in these terms)
