A banker that handles our money?

[-] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 14 points 2 months ago

What constitutes "our money" in a moneyless society?

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

[-] meyotch@slrpnk.net 5 points 2 months ago

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

[-] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

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.

[-] meyotch@slrpnk.net 3 points 2 months ago

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

[-] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

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

Yep, this is it. You perfected it. You win.

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

[-] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months 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?

[-] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

That's one way to interpret it, yes.

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

[-] meyotch@slrpnk.net 3 points 2 months ago
[-] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

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

[-] meyotch@slrpnk.net 4 points 2 months ago

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.

[-] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

That explains so much about the world.

[-] KeenFlame@feddit.nu 8 points 2 months ago

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

[-] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

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