you may think a "machine that turns suffering into money" sounds like a ridiculous idea that no one would ever make but it actually exists in real life and it's called capitalism

@sierra wonderboy owns a much more literal version of this machine

@sierra its called being autumn on the Fediverse being the Fediverse’s only lolcow ..

@autumn who's makin money from it doe 🤑 I gotta tap in

@sierra well.. it goes through my Brave Attention Token system…

@sierra ok but that implies the suffering is used up and gone after the process

@apophis well, not the suffering per se, but people are in fact dying. and yes, it's all because of money
