What do you propose exactly?
Divine right of kings simply morphed into capitalism. We didn’t get rid of jack shit, and we never will.
I agree These systems both emerged from inherent humanity, not conspiracy.
“inherent humanity” - what a magical term. you might have a magical worldview! which means you won’t even recognize this as an insult, which is sad, but a little funny.
I can recognise nonsense when I see it, and viewpoints based on assumptions rather than evidence.
That would make sense for capitalism, if humanity didn’t have to have its permanent, essential characteristics beaten, traumatised and groomed out of them with land seizures, branding, whipping, workhouses, schools, prisons, debtors prisons, being forced to sell their children, slavery and the threat of homelessness and starvation for hundreds of years.
People didn’t just accept either of those two systems and there’s nothing remotely inherent about them. They were both forced on people through violence or the threat of it.
Feudalism is entirely different from Capitalism, which is entirely different from Socialism. Class dynamics have changed, and will change.
Feudalism is entirely different from Capitalism
Not really, no. Even though feudalism doesn’t consider greed and resource hoarding inherently virtuous like capitalism does, both are at their core about the few rich and powerful exploiting and abusing the many poor and powerless through ownership of the necessities for life and a greater capacity for violence.
Both are class societies, yes. Both are fundamentally different relations of classes.
There are differences, yes, but they’re built on the same foundation and as such by definition NOT fundamentally different.
Capitalism is like Fuedalism in a trenchcoat
It’s a fundamentally different stage of class society with fundamentally different mechanics.
Fundamentally different? Lords are still in control, just now we call them “Billionaires” and act like the “Market” protects us.
thanks for sharing. I’ve been feeling pretty hopeless lately and this helped me today
Feel free to chill around here. I’m all about uplifting peeps!
