Comment on We keep measuring everything's value with something that continuously loses value over time

It’s that human worth shouldn’t be attached to a random hierarchical tool, whose main function is to distribute violence.

I agreed until you said that money was made to cause violence.

I didn’t say literally any of that though.
I said its main function is to distribute violence.
Money mainly exists as a way to decide to whom you will deny service.
The more money you can give, the less people will deny you what you need, and the opposite is true.
