The problem is that the money comes with power. They already get something just by owning it.
If a billionaire asks you to be their partner for life and to love them, as the one thing that money can’t buy, would you?
I think if people create a community that billionaires want to join in exchange for their money, wouldn’t that community already be so thriving that they don’t need the money? *
And if the community needs the money, what could offload the guilt that comes with the money? The community would become the billionaire.
* strange that people don’t try to do that, even without money.

Teach people to drive on the right lane unless they want to overtake somebody. Whoever overtakes you on the left won’t drive into the gap because they also want to overtake whoever is driving in front of you.

Even if, why shouldn’t something doubtful be pointed out?
But in this discussion it’s relevant. That White Jesus, do we believe that it is facts? Power is using fiction to create a following first. Then those followers prevent an opposition from forming.
Now why are stories about sex opposed? There seem to be many reasons but one could be to encourage people to have sex. So the opposition tries to make people experience reality while Conservatives try to keep them in their fictional world.
In other words, fiction is not only an enemy but also a friend of power.

I think kings came first, and the storiy supported their power.

Why would someone trap you in such an unfathomably expensive setup?
For people who make a dollar a day, a regular Western year costs more than the resources of their entire life.
- Comment on Anon thinks there is a bicurious double standard 1 week ago:
Just shows how deeply ingrained power relations are in society with an unproportional low complementing awareness and reflection about it.
