    Their children are honestly going to be some of the dumbest people to walk the earth. It's not fair, they never had a chance.

    Capitalists, specifically liberals, doing mental gymnastics to not feel like exploiters. What's new

      That's the difference between saying some random Jaden Smith bullshit that popped into your head and actually thinking and doing world building.

      A sort of neo-feudalism based off of ownership of trees (and the land they're on) being used in terraforming perhaps.

    I could copy paste her tweets and put them in badposting and they'd be indistinguishable from badposting bits. Actually i might go do that see how many people catch on

    just imagining being in a room with this type of person is exhausting.

    "I have never thought about this thing before 30 seconds ago and rather than look anything up using the handheld device connected to all the collective knowledge of the world, I'm going to start transcribing my thoughts like I am innovating purely through raw perception."

    But banknotes are made of cotton fibre, instead of wood fibre. So the dollar isn’t backed by trees, dummy. power-genius

        Or directly onto the trees themselves. That would give economic wars an entirely new dynamic. Imagine Amerikkka and China just constantly printing over each others money trees.

    is that what this kendrick song was talking about?

    i like how much she talks about communism and economics without having even the beginning of a basic understanding of any of it. like this is the kind of thing i'd expect out of a 14 year old trying to figure out how money works. still, maybe the tree based economy is better than the gaming based economy she proposed last time

    I always want to do bits about stupid crypto concepts like "TreeCoin! The first cryptocurrency backed by trees!" but it always turns out to actually exist and I've given up hope that I could shitpost hard enough to come up with one that doesn't. I don't even have to look it up to know that something like TreeCoin already exists, and honestly I wouldn't be surprised if there were ones named after each specific type of tree.

      I agree. This is the most low-energy bat-shit insane thing I've ever read from her.
