A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    1. NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    2. Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    3. Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

I swear you don't even care about the answer, you just want to be "right."

Some might consider that arguing in bad faith, but I consider that a blue herring.

How about the whole spectrum of economic systems in between? Socialism, barter, free-money economy, basically anything that does not have a class of people with generational wealth who do nothing but own things and pocket profits.

I don't really recognize the existence of any economic system
