    That’s not how forests work. At all. I don’t even know where to start on this

    If you want a real response, ask me tomorrow. I can speak on this matter for days, but I’m done essay posting for tonight

      If that essay is about the forest, then don’t bother, that’s just analogy and i simplify and leave out a lot of thing just so i can explain it.

      And if you can’t bother with a real respond, why not just respond tomorrow instead? Or don’t respond. Instead you demand me to just ask again tomorrow? You aren’t my superior you know.

        Yeah, sorry that was rude. But I do think it’s a pretty good metaphor and I wanted to follow up on it

          It’s crazy. They claimed they work in finance, but the lack of financial and economic knowledge coming out of their comment is saying otherwise. It’s either someone is trolling or had too much red pill that they see only black and white.

            I definitely don’t work in finance lol, I’m sure I’ve never said that in my life

            I’m a programmer who’s had to learn far more about accounting and debt vehicles than I’ve ever wanted to know

            I’m just sick of people tell me I don’t know about economics because they took a few economics classes in college, and then refusing to actually make any points

            I took micro and macro too, I understand the propoganda. It’s just bullshit. The world hasn’t worked like that for a while now, if it ever actually did

            You can find plenty of economists who can explain exactly how we got here though

            I think they’re just lying on the internet. “Debt is the ultimate evil and the cause of all of society’s problems also fuedalism was good” is some serious high schooler shit. It’s the perfect combination of complete lack of knowledge of the subject beyond a very surface level and an absolute conviction of their ideas that almost always comes from just being very young. Either that or they got into some bizarre fringe ideology where this is taught but I am not aware of one with this belief system. At first I thought it was some weird leftist thing since this is Lemmy after all but given the complete lack of knowledge of the writings of Marx and Lenin (who did not reject all of classical economics in favor of their ideas) I am really not sure.
