"scarcity" is also kind of a weird thing, that doesn't even exist (yet)
a peasant was ALWAYS a peasant
and so on
there was no vertical movement
Fuedalism is moreso power than anything else
Perhaps... Mercantlism?
Mercantilism is referred to as early capitalism in Marxism
Eh
I.e when capitalism was still bound to states
And state interest
And before mass industry
You mean.... state capitalism?
Yes and no,
Schrodinger’s State Capitalism
Lol

Anyway, I have to sleep, and wait silently for a certain german’s autism to act up
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
@Puma who's?
@Farseer Selna Vesha lol when did that ever happen?
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'd argue the opposite
The market was largely unimpeded until the state took a controlling interest in it by monopolizing the control of the currency and regulating the market
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 you think everyone else is a liberal
good shit m8
@Deleted User I mean, we are aren't we?
dab on them libs epic style
@Fitzydog post 8val
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
there's actual conservatives on this server
Pisses me off though because here in Europe most bought into the anti gun meme
@Deleted User > implying conservatives aren't Liberal
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
