        Just asking questions about if poor people should have enough food to live or if that would make them breed too much, no fucked-up Malthusian undertones here, nossir

            Damn you’re right, it’s almost like we need to also restructure society in such a way that prioritizes human need and equitable access to resources and education on an ongoing basis, instead of the maximization of profits at the expense of literally everyone on Earth. It’s a good thing the world isn’t currently being ravaged by an economic order reliant on murder, starvation and inefficiency, otherwise this persistent handwringing about logistics and overpopulation would seem really strange and premature.

            Like dude, no person or faction with the political will to go up against the forces keeping people in poverty is currently in any position to do so. We’re talking about a make-believe scenario, and the fact that even then your mind goes immediately to “overpopulation” is mega sus and indicative of where your priorities are.

        It is not whatever. I have provided a credible source for you for the numbers in another comment 6 hours ago. Please stop arguing in bad faith.

      Money is only imaginary until I have to pay to keep a roof over my kids heads and feed them. Grow up and open your eyes.

        Damn bro thats crazy who do you have to pay this totally real money to, and why, and what happens if you don’t? You need to grow up and open your eyes, you’re like a medeival peasant telling me that the King’s authority is a natural and divinely ordained part of nature. It’s sad.

          Look, you can live in your parents bedroom not having to pay rent, surfing Lenny on thy internet you don’t pay for and act like you are the smartest person. Come to me when you get kicked out. Nice strawman by the way. Lrn to argue. But I get it, teenagers have a very small minded mentality. You’ll look back and realize how dumb you sound one day. Hopefully. Also hopefully your age matches your mental state. Otherwise you’re a lost cause.

              Look if you can tell me about some communist commune where I don’t have to do anything but posts shifty takes online, let me know. I’m down to be a bum. Otherwise you are aren’t old enough for real responsibilities and you don’t know better, or going to your boring 9-5 making your money to try to stay afloat and talking out your ass online.
