minus-square@rapcheelink5•17 hours agoit only took ~12 000 years to “naturally gravitate to capitalism”

minus-squareDessalineslinkfedilink2•3 hours agoWrong again. The earliest date possible you could put on the emergence of class societies, would be ~12k years ago with the agricultural revolution. Modern humans emerged about 300k years ago, and 2 million years if you want to consider other close relatives. So most charitably, class societies have only existed for 4% of human history, or 0.6%

minus-squareCowbee [he/they]linkfedilink3•edit-28 hours agoCapitalism arose well after money, it’s a specific mode of production.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkPolski0•3 hours agoYeah, because the previous prelevant system, feudalism, was so fair and not at all exploitative of the poor by the rich
minus-squareCowbee [he/they]linkfedilink2•3 hours agoFeudalism was also exploitative, but in a different manner and character as the class character was different. I don’t see what your point is, here.
minus-square@rapcheelink4•14 hours agousing money does not mean it’s capitalism but i do think that capitalism is better than feudalism and most, if not all that came before but i also think that we need to move further, or we’re getting screwed
