We can't blame chatgpt for the change in headline writing over the last few years, though.

I'm not here to kink shame but that's pretty gross

I see what you're saying, the tokens represent access to a finite amount of resources and creating more tokens won't create more resources. I get that.

But if the problem isn't with the amount of resources but with their distribution, then redistributing the existing tokens out of the hands of the greedy hoarders must help the rest, mustn't it?

Edit: I can't believe I'm sitting here arguing with someone on the goddamn Internet. Must be out of my damn mind

Ok but the way I see it there are 100 people and 1000 tokens. Instead of every person getting 10 tokens, one guy has 998 tokens and everyone else argues over the remaining 2. Would killing the one rich guy not free up some tokens for the rest of us?

Imagine being so naive as to believe massive wealth hording deprived others! What turkeys! Amirite?

I'm from New Zealand and my mother still brings this up every time France is mentioned in any context.
