- Comment on What's the difference between a mythology vs a religion? Are they both mutual? 2 weeks ago:
Mythology is the rules invoked to justify a religion.
I use this framing to explain how finance is the rules invoked to justify an economic model.
They’re both control mechanisms conjured by the ruling class to maintain class division, the newer incarnation just substituted smiting with accounting.

Fanta is the original Nazi Coke.
It was created as a substitute in Germany because they couldn’t source the necessary ingredients for Coke during WWII.

Financial obesity is an existential threat to any society that tolerates it, and needs to cease being celebrated, rewarded, and positioned as an aspirational goal.
Corporations are the only ‘persons’ which should be subjected to capital punishment, but billionaires should be euthanised through taxation.

- Comment on Do it for your country's debt! 3 months ago:
This argument lends weight to the specious idea that taxation on wealth hoarding is necessary to pay for the provision of society.
Provisioning healthcare, housing, food, water, transport, and a liveable environment is not constrained by financing, it’s an exclusively social and political choice to not allocate or deploy the appropriate resources.
The financially obese should be euthanised through taxation, not because we need their money, but because they’re an existential threat to any society that tolerates them.
- Comment on Do it for your country's debt! 3 months ago:
The plan is to physically destroy yourself to fix an entirely imaginary problem.
The ‘National Debt’ is merely the cumulative tally of money that nation’s government has ‘spent’ into, and not yet taxed out of, existence. It imposes no tangible burden, and believing it does helps the owning class convince the uninitiated to choose and work against their own interests.
- Comment on It's barely a science. 3 months ago:
Another way I often frame my perspective on this is:
Economics is the social control mechanism that filled the void vacated by religion after the Enlightenment.
Mythology was replaced with finance.
… Churches with banks.
… Clergy with economists.
… God with GDP.I don’t see either as inherently problematic systems, but their lack of rigorous foundational attachment to reality informs my argument that they should be applied as subservient tools, as opposed to their current role as dominant, dictatorial weapons.
- Comment on It's barely a science. 3 months ago:
A distinction without a difference. Lobbying and propaganda are basically the prophesizing and scripture of politics.
- Comment on It's barely a science. 3 months ago:
Economics, as an intellectual discipline, is closer to theology than physics. Its power is proportional to the belief it commands.
Finance is an arbitrary subset of mathematics, cherry picked to retroactively support a given economic model, and applied as its supporting mythology.
It’s entirely imaginary, which means alternatives are only ever a conjuring away.
