   I think the reason the deck really hits so broadly is (like Luna said) we relate to the unvalued goose, and then the deck says “Hey billionaires, you can value the goose •by owning it•”

   …which is…the world’s present moment, the world’s history, all of it.

   People may not be articulating all that, but I do think we’re feeling it at some level.

     @inthehands @jimfl @corbden I think there's also an aspect where the deck exposes how much the kinds of people who effectively run economies the world over have absolutely cooked their own brains.

     Nothing seems to make sense right now, but we keep getting told that very serious businessfolks who know what they are doing are making rational and reasoned decisions... the deck puts the lie to that in very memeworthy fashion.
