 I’ll be printing this to post in my office.

“The excess and decadence enabled by a world run on broken easy money allows people to live in a detached reality that leads them to push objectively false narratives. This is why there are running debates about gender and a retreat from merit based compensation.” 

@MartyBent 
 You see some of the biggest distortions in the microcosm of college campuses, where faculty and kids live in a protected bubble, ironically secured by the sweat, hard work and generosity of alumni most on today's campus openly claim to despise. It is so disrespectful and disingenuous, it is grotesque. 
 Fix the money, fix the world. 
 That comrade is right 🫡 
 Agree

 I thought printing was bad 
 How are these narratives objectively false? Gender seems pretty subjective to me… and so do the virtues of meritocracy. For people who like free speech and open discussion, everyone on here does a pretty poor job at listening and growing. 
 The opposite, in fact comrade. We found the way out of the gulag, having escaped the very process of thought of which you are still constrained. We simply value proof of work. 
 Thank you for validating my statement.
