You say that with some kind of implication of acceptism...
I say that because slavery has nothing to do with capitalism and never has.
You're delusional.
Truly enlightening
Must be nice not to be diabetic.
It is, objectively, but also what??
Exploitation is Slavery. If you don't a job for some rich asshole, you're dead. Do you just not educate yourself beyond your own comfort? Do you just think than any comfort you chew like tobacco is anything but delusion?
That's nightshade. Come back to reality and spit that the fuck out, now.
This is an insane take lol
Well identified. It's easily 2 insane tokens and THAT is Cthulhu so I easily win the game here. If you're unfamiliar with Lovecraft Letter, then do you best to find the digital documents cuz IDGAF if you understand or don't. It's well and out of print anyway.
How high are you right now lol
Depends what you mean by "high."
So other political and economic systems do not have a history of slaves too? Whenever I see things blaming capitalism for our issues I worry as it means we are no laser focused on the root cause of these sorts of issues…centralized powers getting too big and unchecked no matter their political flavour.
