    I’m only working so that i can afford the things that other people make. A moneyless society would just have other types of debt, with fewer things to do in general.

    I could probably also take a job that pays more, but that wasn’t the question. Would you take responsibility for other people without compensation, is probably a more apt way of phrasing the question.













  • Reminds me of an interaction my friend had with a girl that he usually just had casual sex with. She asked him if they could do some rougher stuff, things that definitely would leave a physical mark. He said OK, but ONLY if she wrote up a statement beforehand explaining that this is in fact something she wanted to have done to her.

    There isn’t a single iota he could have said or done if she decided after the fact that it wasn’t for her and just reported it to the police. Most decent guys are very cautious about being wrongly accused, as the fallout entails the same thing as actually having violated someone.

    I’d say most guys are as afraid of being accused of violence as most women are afraid of being exposed to it.

    This is the same reason tomatoes are borderline impossible to emulate artificially. Instead of one or two volatile chemicals that create the aroma, there is something like twenty different compounds that makes tomato-flavour.
