Debt has been the most effective method in history to make slaves/serfs.

Kekius Minimus 2y ago

Avoid debt, but allow people to choose debt if they want.

There are two ways to enslave with debt:

Self-imposed. People can make debt decisions that harm themselves

Externally-imposed. States force debt conditions on citizens, as a price of living in improved civilization

The only form of debt enslavement to be vigorously resisted is externally-imposed debt mechanisms

For sure if someone wants to go into debt, i wont stop them.

But we can try to warn and explain. We cant stop excessive stupidity though.

💯

Last month i made a bunch of posts against debt and got some disagreeing with me. A lot here will justify it if it helps them move “forward”.

The externally imposed slavery/serfdom will explain how it was self-imposed the entire time. They will also use the idea that self-imposed slavery being okay means slavery isnt inherently wrong, thus they have a reason to enact it. It was all our fault.

I will not normalize either as anything less than immoral.
