The monkeys would kill the hoarder and take the bananas…
It would never happen because as soon as they take a little too much, they’d be kicked out of the troop. Like with everything else, overpopulation is a big part of the problem here. A human troop kicking you out doesn’t have huge consequences like it did when we lived in groups of 150 or so.
In reality, the starving monkeys would kill the shit out of that monkey and take all his bananas to share with everyone else.
Based and monkey-pilled.

We shouldn’t have invented weapons ☹️
A billionaire can’t hold a million AK47s. A million people can though.
A billionaire can hire a million people to hold those AK47s.
AK47? What kind of garbage platform is that? Maybe M-16 or M-4
I used the AK47 knowing it would bait gun nerds.
There is a reason the AK47 is a symbol of revolution for those that dare to resist imperialism. The AK47 is significantly more reliable and easier to maintain than either of those weapons. In guerilla warfare it is far far superior to either of those weapons. The AK47 keeps firing when it’s covered in dirt. The same cannot be said of the M-16 or M-4.
You’re essentially saying that reaper drones are superior to the Shahed drones. Yes. On paper. But it’s not about one weapon going head to head with another. It’s about what is actually best for winning the fight.
Iran has proven that high maintenance and high tolerance weapons with massive firepower and features will quickly become inferior to the easy to manufacture Shaheds that are essentially flying on a lawn mower engine.
Not to mention the countless resistance forces that defeated the American military with the AK47 as its flagship weapon of combat.
Edit: Shahed not shaded. Autocorrect.
Sure it depends on what the conflict is, who’s fighting it, what the logistics and infrastructure looks like, etc. As a symbol, sure AK47. However in reference to America in this thread, actually an AR-15 type rifle would probably be the best symbol.
Absolutely. Definitely less AK47s in the US sitting around. I just knew a gun nerd would come along and I appreciate the conversation.
Not yet. I think they’re desperately working on it right now.
The population of the United States is over 300 million. If we lose to the robots that can’t even load a dishwasher it’s gonna be really embarrassing.
Well do you know what happened between Australians and emus?
Never get involved in a land war in Asia is a known truism, thanks to the frigid Siberian winter and the mud season. Except there are plenty of historical examples of the Russian steppes being conquered, usually when there is a lot of internal strife between the factions there. A lot of the time they don’t really get a long.
And so it is with the US. The people here are struggling to get organized, and I still point to the massive far-right propaganda machine that dominates social media and television viewership that is telling us that our marginalized groups are the cause of all their woes. I want to believe we’re smartening up what with rising prices and illegal wars and the blatant corruption of the political and ownership classes. But much effort has gone into keeping the common white American really ignorant and stupid.
I think they’re going to try to do it with a large human paramilitary force, such as with ICE, and with the help of the surveillance state. For now they’re coming for the immigrants. Then the disabled. And then the protestors and then the Democrats.
I really hope we catch on before it’s too late.
ICE has received more funding than many other countries’ entire militaries. Palantir, Anduril, Shield AI, and others are all owned and controlled by the tech fascists trying to collapse the United States and rebuild as Network State monarchies.
If this situation ever ends, it’s not going to end peacefully.
And it only takes a single bullet
Anything can be a weapon if you have enough imagination… including bananas.
Don’t worry! If only the other monkeys allow that one monkey to own and monopolise all the banana trees, eventually some of the bananas will come trickling down to them… in the form of
apemonkey piss.//Edit: terminological correction
monkeys are not apes
Thank you for the insight, good Sir or Madam! I will not stick my head in the sand like an ostrich, but will henceforth use imagery that is in line with our modern understanding of biology.
They’re both primates, most monkeys have a tail, while most apes do not.
Thank you for clarifying! Now I’m no longer blind as a bat to this fact.
Trickle down something I dunno I wasn’t paying attention
Many monkeys do that, they only share with closely related ones. Lots of other kinds of animals do it too.
That’s not at all the analogy being made here. The bananas being hoarded in a fair analogy would be a banana mountain reaching above the clouds. I don’t think family units within larger ape communities are doing that. Stay focused.
No! Trump bad!
Very telling that you thought of Trump when no one referenced that diapered pedophile. Maybe it was the recent news about scamming over $1B using rug pull crypto while in office?
Very crypto
Very grifter, the tool has little bearing. If it wasn’t crypto it would have been Trump Steaks, Trump University, or Trump Casinos. Crypto just made it easier to scam people without physical proximity.
Wait. Donald Trump is dishonest? Whew. I had not heard about that.
Does anyone else know?
Definitely not his supporters. They think he’s God on Earth.
Really? Source?
Show me a forbes cover with a person holding onto a ton of bananas…
Where are all the banana holders in today’s society? Everyones passing off their bananas, nobody is holding them up proud, we used to have a proud tradition of bananas in this, everyone loved them, everyone loved bananas. No bananas today, they’re gone, they tell me, gone.
