Yes. We have all agreed to exchange tokens (which have little to no inherent value) for goods and services, in lieu of trading other goods and services directly.
All other mechanics surrounding money are up for debate, but for any society more advanced than the hunter-gatherer stage, some form of “money” is required to facilitate trade.
There’s a significant difference between recognizing the irredeemable, systemic corruption of this economy, and believing no society or economy should exist ever.
The former wants a just, equitable society, and recognizes this is the opposite of that, and the latter just openly wishes they could shoot their way through life with impunity.
When you say “I never agreed to it” as a retort to a comment that boils down to “I think that money is real”, you are either using the same logic and talking points of a Sovcit.
Maybe you are just wording things poorly, but you sound like a Sovcit.
Sovcits are gullible fools that think that saying incantations to police about moving vs travelling will somehow make them immune to the law. They generally have nothing to say about the application of money as they still attend jobs and bring home incomes.
I see what you’re trying to say. But I gotta ask tho: did “we all” actually, really agree on that?

Why? Library economies are moneyless, and highly adaptive to technological progression and climate change.
How does a library handle consumables?
it would look more like a food bank than a library tbh, but the concept remains the same. This video is a much better primer on the topic in general
What are consumables in a library economy?
Who makes the consumables in a library economy? Why on earth would I farm for love of the game?
You don’t want the librarian to starve, or the blacksmith.
Someone else will do it then, surely? I can just play video games and check things out permanently from the library and get free food from the farmer?
Maybe if you want to piss off the farmer…
You are forgetting that there is a component of anonymity that fiat currency provides transactions. You lose that in a social economy.
Money is “asocial”.
If you ever use money to buy the thing with the price agreed upon, then yes, you agree on that. This is sovciv level post…

Every comment that correctly says that they are on some sovcit BS seems to be downvoted.

I don’t think you know what sovcit is. Money is intrinsically worthless. It’s just a stand in for things that actually have worth.
