However, these capitalists found slaves for sale in Africa, since they were still in the early stage of slave societies

And they bought these slaves for profit there

It is simply undialectical

<:bour:313709044957315082>

owning slaves is le ancap

I'll put it as how comrade stalin explains it

"The slave system would be senseless, stupid and unnatural under modern conditions. But under the conditions of a disintegrating primitive communal system, the slave system is a quite understandable and natural phenomenon, since it represents an advance on the primitive communal system"

- Stalin, Dialectical and Historical Materialism

Take Ancient Greece and Rome

And Egypt

They were all slave societies, advances on primitivism

Huge slaving empires

After a lot of time passed, feudalism emerged

Slavery was replaced by serfdom

And after a lot of time passed, capitalism emerged

Serfdom was replaced by wage slavery

And after a lot of time, socialism emerged

Wage slavery was abolished, and workers owned the value of their labour

socialism > gommunism

@Borzo that doesn't work. If I buy a bunch of heavy equipment then people I hire can't just get all the profit from the equipment I bought... They get a fair wage

Now if they themselves owned the equipment they have that right to more of the profit

Ie a small business owner

Like a small family owned mom and pop store

But since most businesses aren't like that they are entitled to a fair wage

@Borzo

It's refreshing to hear good sense

if you do none of the work you get none of the gain, I don't give a damn about your "property rights"

the boss needs you, you don't need him
labor is entitled to all it creates

just ask the wobblies

here is a picture i made of the reality of my country

and they all push for the same damn things, just at different times

you get almost all your news from here if you live in america and use american outlets

five companies

you're looking at the bias on too small of a scale, they're all biased towards american imperialism and corporate interests

this particular image is fox news but I could find the same shit from CNN or wapo

1984 had it all wrong, we don't just have a Department of Truth
we have a Department of Truth and a Truth Department and they both hate each other

@Apple O'Day All wealth is generated by labour
