    We’ve never seen a system that hasn’t had these problems.

    The Chinese “communist” system exploits a “labor class”, hell they expose a labor class to external capitalist systems.

    The western “capitalist” system exploits a “labor class”

    The fantasy that human nature disappears under different systems is the biggest myth we tell ourselves.

    Our nature is baked into us by the oven of nature, we are prey animals that have intelligence to take us past scarcity but incapable of being comfortable in it.

        Greedy people have taken power at every point in human history, it was there before “capitalism” was a thing,
