Well that's generous
Nah. The 24 hour window is so all the rich, connected people can apply for some grandfathered exemption clause that's not available to the rest of us.
Fuckers
People say you come back. Reincarnation. Do you think so? Well, it doesn't seem mathematically possible to me, man. Uh, 'course at one time what we had on the earth was six people, you know. I avoid "two" because it's controversial but six... most people agree, "fuck, yeah, we had six at one time." Six people, six souls... cool. They died, souls went back to the place; six new people souls- still six souls. Now we have four billion people... claiming to have souls. Someone is printing up souls... and it lowers their value, you know.

But about the souls of all the bacteria 🦠
Maybe they get reincarnated into other bacteria?
Lol @ me being reincarnated as a cat. I can't pay bills sorry
They'd track you until you're reincarnated into a paying body again.
And by “track” you mean they’d kill you over and over till you roll human.
Dont even remember past lives
Spent 178 years as various insects and sea creatures
Still owe $244'000 on a used honda civic rusting in a scrapyard in a completely different country
Strange to see Zullie outside of the FromSoft space, but also, 100% accurate point.
Yeah. They make great videos and they turned out to have rad politics too. Neato.

I'd just be happy that people like me. On a bun nonetheless. But a like is a like.
Way easier to lie about it. Just pick babies out to be indentured servants for life to repay some imagined debts. Maybe make them feel it was their fault for not paying off the debt previously. We could even target kids from poor families for this, so they have less hope of fighting back.
We did this already, a bunch of times.
Isn't this just the caste system?
Any class system. Some are more rigid than others, but the goal is the same.
Yeah so it turns out you’re responsible for the things everyone in your group did in the past. And a lot of them died without paying their bills so that’s on you kid.
Rich people would probably set something up so that their future incarnation inherits their wealth, since it's statistically likely that they'd be reincarnated as someone poorer. I could also imagine a much stronger push to bring the birthrate up even at the cost of using unethical means to force it, because if the population decreases, there wouldn't be enough children born for an increasingly large percentage to reincarnate into
Considering the Rich tend to control governments, this would result in shit like a ban on contraception and abortion, mayhaps legally requiring everyone have a minimum amount of children.
This is why reincarnation would come to be. It would then be spun in a way that would be beneficial for people. You can buy that house with a 250 year, 3 lives mortgage!
Sue a termite for damages just in case they show up as a human later or charge rent to the birds nesting in your back yard
And the government would make sure you paid taxes for every dollar moving between incarnations.
And class action lawsuits for damages caused in previous lives. Started a war? Polluted the land? Several million people want compensation. Can't pay now? No problem, several lifetimes to pay off that debt.
What do you mean how long would it take? They would be the ones doing the research for that exact purpose.
I would say they would be the one to prove you can track reincarnation.
I give it an hour before someone decides indebted meat is vegan.
It would be done at the same time the technology used to track reincarnation is announced.
Debt bondage is slavery, but it's still a thing unfortunately.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debt_bondage
It's the opposite of Jubilee, in that debts are literally forever, rather than released every seven years.
My first thought was Cruelty Squad tbh.
Yeah, but it could also fix some things regarding racism, sexism, ableism, trans issues, immigration, geographic disadvantages etc. Maybe climate change?
Optimistic of you to think people wouldn't use it as an excuse to be even MORE discriminatory. There would be Ultra-Whites who could claim they were never non-white in the past X years, with seniority by how far back they can trace their reincarnated whiteness. And of course there would be new religions claiming that if you follow them you'll be reincarnated into the race/environment of your choice.
Suicide would be an epidemic.
Everyone will reroll for better stats
Pretty sure that would result in negative karma, and thus the new reincarnated form would be even less desirable.
Is this the same person who does Elden Ring lore analysis? They do good shit.
Great show!
Politicians would be the ones passing the bills, lobbyist spend a good amount of money on buying politicians and our gov'ts to screw the working class.
The real question is, does the interest go on hold till you reincarnate. Or does it keep accruing.
Interest never stops accruing
If you're an ssshole don't you come back as an insect or animal? That would mean rich folks would have to do actual good to avoid that. Whatever their policies, after the first few trust fund dung beetles and assorted other multi-lifetime embarrassments, they'd probably snap out of it.
Hey check out the cockroach yacht club guys! Lol, how did that forced birth + soul tracking debt thing work out for you!?
Then like half their debtors would achieve nervana and fuck off to heaven or whatever.
I think the kharma religions, this would take care of itself.
about 10 seconds maybe?
Zulie the Witch has me watching videos that deep dive into lore and filenames for games I've never even played, good channel.
