A banker that handles our money?

What constitutes "our money" in a moneyless society?

Wouldn't someone trying to control vibes make them more of a wanker than a banker?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Wait, doesn’t everyone maintain their own wank-bank?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

No, that's just what us plebs have to do.

Those with the means typically hire someone for that particular service, a wank bank swank skank, if you will.

Under communism, the wank bank swank skanks may choose to use their experience to help maintain hyper-local community wank banks!

Wow, that's a really important service to the community. How do we thank wank bank swank skank ranks for their contribution?

The currency that the moneyless society uses to exchange goods with other societies that do have money?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

Good answer. Thank you. I hadn't considered a global economy with that kind of asymmetry. How would that work?

Isn't that just a gold standard but with a beverage powder instead?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

That's one way to interpret it, yes.

You're just being glib in the sense of having the gift of the gab?

I'm laughing at my naivety now. Thank you. That makes so much more sense.

NBD. It’s basically always about pussy. Unless it’s dick. Or other sensitive areas. Basically people are gross and are always looking to find validation with others that their grossness is a shared trait.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

That explains so much about the world.

It's like when the commies say we have lawyers that pay politicians to vote for specifically their product lol that would be bribery and we have freedom

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago

Yeah, that would be so weird, like a US president selling cars from the Whitehouse.
