That's Original Sin my guy, you've gone full horseshoe and are spouting the same nat-c delusions from a different angle.

They are not agreeing with the concept, they are explaining why debt is just a form of original sin.

Also horseshoe theory is a thought terminating cliche; you can compare the similarities of opposite things without the framework of "anything far enough from status quo is the same"

They do a real shit job explaining why Debt == Original Sin then. If you were born in debt it would make sense, but most people choose to take on debt, even if it's a Devil's Bargain, unlike being born with it!

I very much agree Horseshoe Theory is usually "both sides bad" bullshit designed to discredit varying views, but sometimes it's right, and morons with opposite views can reach similar conclusions by virtue of being morons.

Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk
