    it's not about monetary value, value in itself is assigned by humans. what the fuck is the point of the fucking number then?

          you should research metaphysical materialism, you might find it more coherent than what ever your “ideology,” as you say, is now

            "you should research" / "i can't put it into words."

              nah man i’m trying to point you in the right direction so you can have fruitful studies. you can lead a horse to water but you can’t make it drink. it would be useless for me to try to explain something to you given the state of our relations. you would just be contrarian bc the hostilities we’be already exchanged. therefore the only thing i can do is try and point in the right direction.

                you can't even lead a fucking horse to water if you all you've got is a sign that says " go to water. "

                  that would be a great counterpoint if all i told you to do was to read theory vaguely, i’ve actually pointed to specific works or watering holes so to speak.

                    you don't understand what you're fucking saying ory ou'd be able to say it. i don't have to depend on other peoples interpretations of shit to talk to you. to me all you're saying is that you have a vague idea of someone smarter than you's ideology, but can't put it into words for yourself because you don't understand it.

                    edit: they may not even be smarter than you, but you've already subscribed to it, so i'm not talking to you at all, now i'm talking to someone else who isn't even here to argue the fucking merits of the argument they put out a long time ago before you even decided to use their argument against this conversation.
