Some will see this and think this is a sign of progress, that we are transitioning into a society where your genitals don’t determine what toys you get to play with. Others will look at this and think the world is slipping in anarchy and moral decay.
There was moral outrage when faster, cheaper printing presses were invented because they were worried people wouldn’t learn or memorize anything anymore if they could just write it down & it made literacy accessible to the common person.
Interesting question, is anarchy better than Kleptocracy? How does money function without the backing of a government, would you have to go back to a bartering system? Could you even have a global supply chain in the absence of a stable government? Could people be able to self actualize in an unstable society?
For your “stoner supply chain” did you exchange currency backed by some organization or did you exchange precious metals? How did you and other parties agree on the value of what was exchanged?

I’m glad I wasn’t sober when someone incidentally compared happy meal toys to the invention of movable type.
The third group of us secretly want both toys
The rest of know it doesn’t matter, the toy will be broken or lost in the car by the next block!
I don’t think that’s a third group. I think it’s a subset of the first one.
Some of those “morals” need to decay.
I wish they just didn’t give out crappy plastic toys at all.
anarchy and moral decay can’t happen at the same time
Eh; creative urge=destructive urge
Whats wrong with anarchy? Talk all the shit you like; it works better than kleptocracy or fascism.
