Vaush's Coconut Island Analogy Answered

Quote

Today I wanted to take some time to go through Vaush's Coconut Island analogy he uses to try to demonstrate his perceived coercion in hierarchical exchanges. I found the topic particularly interesting because of how rhetorically effective the analogy is in cornering capitalists into an unfavorable position, it's certainly quite an impressive piece of work, but I think I did a pretty fair job giving the most correct response from the pro-property position.

Alden's number is the constant you need to calculate the ratio of island-bound socioeconomic privilege and the weight of deez nuts.

Aldens number explains everything. It came as an insight to Theodor Alden while he was meditating in the Himalayas with the top ranked yogis in the world.

Its not really a number, its more of a secret "equation".

It's a constant derived from another equation :D.

Noone has been able to look at it long enough to say what it really is. Its a deeply esoteric and hidden equation. It is well guarded by a group of people in a very remote area of this planet. Atleast thats what I have heard. Only Vaush was able to briefly lay his eyes upon it once while surfing the deep web. They say its the cure for the culture war and is the only thing that will keep America from collapsing.
