Turns out capitalism is the bad guy all along.

    Hard agree, but it was mercantilism not capitalism. Distinctively different due to reliance in trade circles, colonial holdings and exploitation of overseas resources.

        As is reliance on trade circles. I literally just read an article about how climate change is threatening the Panama Canal, as well as heavily trafficked rivers like the Mississippi and the Yangtze, which would have a huge global impact.

        We also still have colonial holdings, and even the places that aren’t colonies anymore are still exploited

    Unrelated, but I spent way too many attempts trying to figure out what POTC is before reading the pic.

    People of the color? Prisoners of the Coast? …prior…over the counter?

    I mean Davey Jones’s redeeming quality was it was supposed to be out of line, he came off as a tired and bitter old man. The EITC just were exploitive assholes

      Dude got betrayed by his supposedly true love. He got his one day after 10 years of servitude. Hard not to feel lowkey bad for him.
