Les mots ont une valeur bien relatif, raconte la vérité a un esprit certain et ils auront l'effet d'une allumette dans un océan d'obscurité, mais raconte le plus absurde des mensonges a un coeur qui doute et ils auront l'effet d'une tempête qui redéfini l'univers.
Not to get too Reddit atheist but it always annoys me a little bit when someone experiences a moment of genuine human connection and solidarity for no personal gain, and then they thank god rather than the kind stranger who helped them
Cute theory, let's play it out.
A monkey hoards a trillion bananas. The troop, enraged, beats him to death. They gather around the pile to feast at last.
But... oh wait, there is no pile.
It turns out the "bananas" were shares in a banana-launching company the dead monkey founded.
The shares were worth a trillion because he was alive to run it.
Now he is dead and the stock is worth $0.
The retarded monkeys have clubbed their way into a recession.
But it gets worse.
Half the "bananas" were tied up in a rocket that supplies bananas to monkeys on the far mountain who had no bananas at all.
Another chunk was tied up in a little satellite dish that beamed banana coordinates to the troop after a flood took out their trees.
So now they realized they beat to death the only monkey who knew how the dish worked.
So the monkeys sit there.
No bananas.
No rockets.
No coordinates to get more banananas.
Just a dead body and a powerful sense of fairness as they all now became infinitely poorer.
OH
And somewhere a smaller monkey watches the whole thing and quietly decides he will never build anything in front of these animals again.
The whole business model of basically every Silicon Valley company is to operate at a loss until they have monopoly power and then extort "record profits" from their customers.
he's abandoned all his children but one, and either uses him as a human shield or completely ignores him whenever they're together. also he got into politics specifically to harm his transgender daughter. dad of the century here
