David Graeber wrote an incredible book called Debt: The First 5000 Years which is sometimes referred to around Hexbear as “the debt book” or “graeber’s debt book”. it’s an incredible read and one of the central themes is the language of debt and its connection to moral religious language (and historical association with religious institutions).
in short, the language we use to talk about debt contributes to our general moral confusion around who are the victims and who are the bad actors.
