I wonder if any socialists bought that game thinking "ahh yes, now I can convince my friends of the power of communism through board games"

2019-08-24 19:58:45 UTC  

And we can use the funds to fuel our cause!

Being an elite?

2019-08-24 19:59:12 UTC  

he goes into how apparently the idea for "monopoly" was originally a georgan feminist comedians idea called "landlord's game", people can feel free to confirm or debunk this on their own time

2019-08-24 20:00:08 UTC  

```Of course the great irony here is that that the game we now know as "Monopoly" originally started out as "The Landlord's Game," invented by Georgist feminist comedian Lizzie Magie to satirize capitalist rent-seeking... 17/

But then the game was stolen by a male capitalist, made even more brutally and unironically captitalist, and sold to Parker Brothers, who later abused the legal system to get around copyright laws in a classic case of...capitalist rent-seeking. 18/```

Thats how ideas were capitalized 100 years ago

He should hang out with us

2019-08-24 20:02:33 UTC  

links to "monopoly for millenials", which I didn't even know was a thing, and a new york post article: https://nypost.com/2018/11/14/hasbros-new-monopoly-for-millennials-game-is-an-insulting-experience/

2019-08-24 20:02:56 UTC  

Kek.

2019-08-24 20:03:01 UTC  

They have a surprising variety of monopoly iterations

2019-08-24 20:03:10 UTC  

at a certain point I have to wonder if Monopoly is just being the ultimate shitposter with all of its "fuck you money"

2019-08-24 20:03:15 UTC  

"REE! Look at this thing we don't like! LOOK AT IT!"

2019-08-24 20:03:19 UTC  

board games are modular as fuck

I still ahve my NFL monopoly when I used to like football

2019-08-24 20:04:02 UTC  

Chess is the same way. You can have pieces that represent all sorts of two-sided conflicts.

2019-08-24 20:04:25 UTC  

Produce a "Fascists vs. Commies" chess set, and you'll make a mint.

2019-08-24 20:05:23 UTC  

Commies are fascists

2019-08-24 20:05:34 UTC  

no, fascists are socialists

2019-08-24 20:05:37 UTC  

But fascists arent always commies

2019-08-24 20:06:28 UTC  

The commie king and queen would be Stalin and Lenin, respectively.

2019-08-24 20:07:31 UTC  

Lenin queen

2019-08-24 20:07:33 UTC  

Do you not know what "respectively" means, in this context?

2019-08-24 20:07:40 UTC  

it gets you a house at the start automatically

2019-08-24 20:07:45 UTC  

oh, read wrong, pardon me

2019-08-24 20:07:51 UTC  

No worries.

2019-08-24 20:08:01 UTC  

makes sense, Lenin did all the work

2019-08-24 20:08:15 UTC  

And he was a lot more mobile than Stalin.

2019-08-24 20:08:36 UTC  

Also, he was Stalin's bitch boy.
