It was written in the 90's when Captalism seemed like it was going to be Nu Monarchism
so yes it being in the past is completely relevant
I don't really like listing them
But the basic ideas of capitalism are the same
Due to having a birth mom that did a lot of drugs during her pregnancy
They haven’t changed since the industrial revolution
I ended up with quite a lot
But for some reason people tend to think I'm making it up
No idea why
You can still rise as a poor person and become a CEO, that's not monarchism
I take tons of medications, used to attend therapy regularly, and still struggle <:haha:583236087137435659>
thats the exact opposite actually
However if you still want me to list them I can
Capitalism likely opposed Monarchies due to them being a system of inheritance and class whilst Captalism is not.
Captalism fundamentally differs from monarchism in that since
Assuming you meant sense, you are correct
Monarchism is most basically defined by a state ruled by a monarch
As for inheritance, why would capitalism oppose it
In the US our president could be considered an elective monarch I guess
What are we talking about guys?
No he is not a monarch
Karl Marx's Communist Manifesto
A monarch rules for life, usually has his powers ordained by a religion, and would have more power than a president
Ah okay I get it@bink
Captalism is not nu monarchism, because the majority of people who are wealthy got there through hardwork and dedication, not through their forefather's work and money (unless their lucky I guess)
I don't think they meant that he's literally a monarch
Most people get wealthy through inheritance, and from the social connections and upbringing they would have following their birth.
A person could theoretically rise from rags to riches, but that is extremely unlikely.
@bink Unlikely but they can do it
like Bill Gates
Uhhhh
He had a wealthy background
There is a large amount of self made wealthy people
@bink Why do you degrade the amount of self-made wealthy people out there?
There are many of them
I never degraded them, I pointed out that Bill Gates had a wealthy and privileged background. That said, I do not hold any particular respect or admiration for wealthy people.
Bill wasn't that privileged imo
Gail you wanna buy a boat with me? 😤
