Uhm actually ddg is just bing with marketing, does not block microsoft trackers, giving them a monopoly on that data. Use Searxng if you actually want no trackers.
And like. The economy isn’t real. You need to stop getting so worked up about these semantics. Debt isn’t a real thing, money is not a real thing, its all just psychotic monkey scribbles. Made up shit.
The only type of debt that does exist, is the one humanity has towards earth. A debt that exits in the labour, resources and energy that it will take to balance our planet out so it can continue to co-exist with us.
Sorry, just trolling by acting “stoned teenager”
Untrue. We all owe a debt... to ourselves, for always being there. But... does that mean we're the Earth? This is so crazy.
Actually both profit and debt are just global loss.
Sell a forest to let a company turn it in firewood for sale but it doesn’t sell so the company make a loss.
In the end nothing of value got created but the temporary heat of the logs that got sold. For the profit that is now used for a new casino or famous art, the world has lost a forest, a local contributor of healthy air.
All life that consumes life generates loss. To live is to destroy. That is inevitable.
Maybe we should aim to embrace that fact rather than hide from it. Hold the knowledge in 2 hands.
Because the problem is not that to live we must destroy, its the excessive disrespectful way we go on with it noting the profits and value without the damage we have done to obtain those numbers.
Maybe public display of loss and debt, proof of how little cost there is for the creation of a measurable value could be the new winning.
Once we start counting loss and not profit or economy will make more sense, as money to first have and then buy with becomes obsolete in contrast to measuring how much damage you have done compared to your peers. Socially, winning means being able to brag with how much you can do with so little.
No more bloating numbers for the appearance of success, but actual success in showing how creative and efficient we can be to get the most life out of our species.
(This is a wip btw)
