A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

We've already reached post scarcity. Any current scarcity is manufactured.
If you don't have funds to buy resources then that seems to be accurate scarcity no?
The point is that there is no actual scarcity as in "we don't have the resources". We do have the resources, they're just distributed in a way that is profoundly unfair.
That's a matter of access, not whether a sufficient amount of resources exist.
