Mercantilism is referred to as early capitalism in Marxism

I.e when capitalism was still bound to states

And state interest

And before mass industry

Yes and no,

Lol

The main distinction was divorcing capitalism from nation state policy , i.e the actions of capital were no longer subservient to national or imperial interests

And the capitalism had become a truely global phenomenon , globalism started in the 19th century truely,

@Fitzydog roughly around the 19th century, though one can argue mercantilism didn't completely end until the 70s when the USA ended the last gold backed currency

It's own

I'm also gonna go to bed, it's late here and I shouldn't be up late arguing with random liberals on the internet

When i say liberal I use it in its true meaning, not the corrupted meaning the USA turned it into, for example being anti gun is pretty anti liberal

Us "liberals" on the other hand get rock hard over security theatre like gun control

Pisses me off though because here in Europe most bought into the anti gun meme

A large portion of American conservatives are comfortable liberals,

Though the evangelicals can be described as theocrats

I dunno why republicans tolerate them despite them literally violating the secularism within the us constitution

And advocating for such

@Deleted User most conservatives are conserving liberal ideals of older times or just in general, the US left on the other hand is trying to turn the USA into a social democracy

Europe actually has fairly strong borders, despite it being tolerant of refugees, if you aren't skilled your stuck in America

So that's not exactly a good argument against them

That's also tens of millions your telling to migrate out, there's few places able to take them let alone willing

Even if they are social democracies

I think they will win out in the end, social democratic policies tend to become very popular as populations become more urbanised and the USA is urbanising quite quickly

In fact you can almost predict much of someone politics based on whether or not they live in a city

In the USA

Not surprising, I've seen arguments ranging from the USA being composed of 11 distinct cultural nations to a group of competing ideologies and peoples with distinct desires regarding the future of the union that are directly contradictory

That will lead to balkanisation

Question is, how will it balkanise , as this is a city vs rural split primarily

@Deleted User I'm a political animal

Sorry

Or join Canada

No but it and Canada are ....pretty cool

They can be my cock

I'm gonna visit lapland one day (might live there too depending)

Nazis invaded Greenland twice

I dunno , probably to check if allies were operating out there

A land invasion of the USA is suicide

A lot of states in Europe banned guns because communist revolution was a very real threat to many liberal democracies

And had been attempted

Actually

Unironically liberal democracies had no qualms punishing even peaceful reformist socialists,

Lol

They often do actually,

Because they support the liberal democratic state

@Dwarforn damn heretic , how dare you challenge gods own chosen representative on earthy

Hairy tic hairy tic hairy tic! @Dwarforn

Krauts back lads

Well lads this no doubt is gonna spur fuck a shit tonne of activity on Der server, I gotta go , @franti keep an eye out for the usual shits

@franti no however Der server can be googled , most of the activity we got from it came from kraut merely posting it in a comment

Video has only been out for less then its length, already has 75 dislikes

So the alt right are still using those YouTube socks I see

i too spout irish ethno nationalism randomly in discords @BestHebron

another emmigrant, there is nothing proud about it , how do we end up one of the richest states in europe while simulatanously also encourage the young to emmigrate in droves @BestHebron

we have surpassed britain in percapita earnings yet irish people still migrate

there

https://tradingeconomics.com/ireland/gdp-per-capita

@LumpyAcidFish is the usa rich

because ireland has a higher per capita income then the USA

actually wait no

thats wrong

misread stats

again, how did we end up in this position while simultaneously basically forcing out our youth to emigration @BestHebron

our income fucking rivals NORWAY

one of the best places to live on earth

im speaking in general

most people who leave dont come back

i think ireland would have close to 30-40 million people in its population if we didnt suffer constant mass emiggration over the last century

seriously? @franti

lol

"mao little pony" fucking lol

that video was pretty funny

@franti oh jesus
