      Money printing is the act of parading around the crippled king in the throne of gold. It's like when sales go down and you increase marketing to try and compensate. The issue is usually deeper like a product or support issue.

      It's like a wheelchair which allows some sort of existence post-crippling. It allows movement and a semblance of regular life during the healing process where problems are investigated and repair happens.

      The cost is that the "humanity" of the faith backed token shows through. It damages the 'godlike' aura of the thing and devalues it

      Over time, the Cult of God which tokenizes history via their tokens starts to worship a False Idol. Either an ideology in the case of Zombie-ness. Or an individual/small-group in the case of Vampire-ness. The power of the token derives from the worship.

      E.g. in a corporate environment of 100 people you have 100 units of status/attention. A toxic workplace is one that's propping up the existing status distribution. The toxicity is put up w/ because the distribution is 'fair'b/c there is no alternative interpretation of history.

      "Demon Worship" is akin to fetishizing something you know is 'evil' because the benefits outweigh the costs or you believe that the end justifies the means. The actual vampire/zombie doesn't exist but through the act of worship the worshipper *becomes* it.

      I.e. "satan" by necessity can only manifests itself through an avatar.

      From the internal POV of any 'tribe' (no matter how large) that is united under a common god, every other tribe looks like devil worship. (Even if they're not actually tribes, they just 'seem' like one big blob)

      "Immigrants" from the perspective of those who worship their own country (Nationalism) look like zombies. (even if they have high tech jobs) "The 1%" from the perspective of those who worship 'Humanity' look like vampires. (even if we love amazon prime)

      Though both of these examples are somewhat corrupted by narcissism. The Dying King and the Empty Throne do not inspire much faith.

      Yet the blob can become diverse. E.g. you learn to distinguish the various cultures and sub-cultures within the 'immigrant' blob, or you see the often highly individuated individual who has become rich, you see that they worship for the same reasons you do.

          I.e. diversity is about "seeing god in all its forms" rather than wanting to *be* godlike or have some sort of privileged association with god.

          Every demon that "I" see "other" as worshipping is a demon that "I" created. The demon exists only from my perspective, not theirs. This 'demon' looks the same no matter what cult I'm deriding. (similarly, rainbow gods exists only from specific vantage points)

          Being familiar with a menagerie of demons is one of the steps to valuing the wild animals of nature and takes you closer to an appreciation of 'reality.' If you only see vampires you only see monsters. but if you learn to fear spiders, zombies, etc.. as well then you see 'beings'

          At the end of the day it's a bunch of humans following a bunch of other humans. The only 'wrong' thing you can do is lose track of reality.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ant_mill

          In that sense, money is the most widespread Virtual Reality. It's like english or javascript. It's just everywhere, even if many believe that it isn't the 'best'. Yet isn't 'everywhereness' the benchmark of reality?
