Here's another solution. Using today's new rules of Equity, cut one apple in half and give each boy a half. Give the girl the remaining whole apple to make up for past injustices to her great grandmother.

you didn't consider the race and sexuality of the others you racist bigot.

What about the PoC and other marginalised communities that are disproportionately affected?

You've got to take diversity, equity and inclusion into account when sharing.

And lest I forget, Ukraine needs support, and Brazil too!!

That's the great thing about sharing under marxism; you don't need more apples, just more knives.

I was going to say off the girl and split the two apples ... or cut another apple from the tree, and they all get one.

The first suggestion is the correct one. Killing off one of the children so that demand conforms with supply is how you achieve Equity under Marxism.

Increasing the supply of applies to meet the demand is free market capitalism and is evil.

Of course, the one in the middle is at a disadvantage. Either of the two on the ends could use one swipe to take out both of the others, thereby taking both apples for themselves ;)

You win the prize! At least someone is old enough to remember the classics.

It's not murder, it's euthanasia. You're sparing one from agonizing death by starvation. All legal in the great white north.

brilliant insight

Yep. One of the boys is gay, so he gets the bigger half (again, to make up for past injustices).

Merging together your solution, Jam Beau's, and my snark, I made a meme. Feel free share it. Or condemn it.

Fantastic. If it turns into a money maker, how do we share the profits without using a knife?

I'm keeping all the profits and moving to SBF's old house in the Bahamas. I hear it's being offered at a fire sale price.

brilliant, but for the fact that, at the time of this pictured dilemma, the apple trees are no more ~ due to the too-belatedly-recognised effects of capitalism. the invalid assumption of "there's always more supply!" of the natural world strikes again.

LMAO!! damn right! And I want my reparations only in the form of Pie!!

That would've worked a few years ago, but now we don't even know who's a boy and who's a girl. Random assignments by some doctor at birth. Now, whoever identifies as most victimized gets both apples, and if one identifies as transgender, the whole world needs to bring them apples.

We know the problems. Our systems are corrupted. It is time to organize and fix them.

Decentralize everything. Demand transparency. Weaponize the tyranny of the masses back onto the people corrupting our systems and end the Global Agenda.

Also understand systems better and how important they are. If you tell us the kind of systems that govern over you, we can accurately predict your quality of life.

Embrace decentralized and transparent systems.

Fear centralized ones.

Know the difference:
