I’m trying to build my comm so there is always a place for people to post when their post doesnt6 exactly fit anywhere else. Please contribute if you can. Just post, like, a dad joke there if you can’t think of anything.

  • Just trying to think of what greed got us.

    Its a long list but Id say it basically all leads to Modern technology - by which we can say is partially responsible for modern medicine. Im not sure greed is required for that or will it over all be super beneficial, considering climate change. At least, we have no problem harnessing it and we already do much of what you say. I think we just need to look at what is greed and what is actually mental illness.

    Its greedy to want more money than you could ever need. Its mentally ill to want the biggest money number because its super big.

    More than that though. When it comes to hoarding there is an emotional attachment. Kind of like when a dog is food aggressive. Hoarders will lash out if you threaten their hoard. Now you might think this makes sense if someone is threatening to take your money but if that money adds no intrinsic value to your personal being its just the same as you freaking out some one took your “treasures” (actual garbage) from you house and disposed of it properly.



  • If the only people left alive were the cruelest, would they thrive? I know it seems unjust but we dont get upset that the dinosaurs once ruled the planet.

    Personally, I think peoplle are corruptable. People arent inherently anything but circumstance plays a much bigger role. Essentially the most vulnerable people are just unlucky. Given the right luck they could only mirror the elite, not change their structure.

    For the elite to see through the eyes of the homeless they would need to be made homeless and there is no other way.
