I'm not an expert like CapNep but didn't they work the hours of the sun? What is a feudal farmer supposed to work on when they can't see? How did these ancient workers pay off their Versa payments with the exploitative borrowing rate?

Nep's parroting something that was really popular on Twitter a couple years ago. 

Some moron added up all the feudal duties a peasant had to their lord and concluded it was less work than 8 hours/day or 150 days/year or something and got it published in an academic journal or something.

Completely ignoring all the subsistence farming work and tending to animals they had to do to grow enough food to survive the year.

Edit: somebody post Benji's charts in that thread with the Riotous account.

The only perk someone living as serf in a feudal society had was getting to fuck their wife at night because there was nothing else to do, and even that was less of a perk and more of a safety margin to continue their lineage because most of their kids would die before being able to assist in the back breaking daily chores

The thing I hate about all of these retarded communist tankies is their obsession with tearing things down instead of building them up. 

They don't want everyone to have a single family home, rather they want to force people in the suburbs to live in their soulless multi-unit dystopian apartment blocks. 

They don't want everyone to have a comfortable private vehicle that can be used to freely travel on your own schedule, rather they want everyone to pack in like sardines to mass transit to be transported around the aforementioned apartment blocks.  

This is why the far left is just as much of a cancer as the far right. It's just authoritarianism through forced collectivism. Egalitarianism through the lowest common denominators of existence. It's fucking disgusting. It's fucking insulting to a species that thrives on building and creating things. Rather than lifting people up they just want to drag everyone down to live in the mud with them because they're jealous of the people who bothered to accomplish something in their lives to live better than the squalor they find themselves in.

When you read about Marx and other communist thinkers, it’s quickly apparent they’re overly privileged spiteful losers. Their rantings read like incel manifestos. Marx in his adulthood complained that his mommy didn’t give him free money. 

They never want to make the world better. Some of their language is enticing to semi normal people. Telling them there’s a cheat code to make the world work better. But it’s about making a world where everybody fails. A grander scale of somebody taking the ball and going home because they can’t dunk.

Quote:"Most people can't understand how rich people can have problems. They dismiss rich people's mental health concerns as insignificant and of diminished importance," Paul Hokemeyer, a clinical psychotherapist who treats the ultra rich, told CNBC.

According to therapists that CNBC spoke to, more often than not, the super-rich struggle with feelings of isolation, depression, and paranoia, amongst others — a spectrum of emotions that many others tend to share.

historical revisionism based on being actively ignorant on the subject matter at hand and not even pretending to do even the most cursory research to see if their hypothesis stands against even a basic scrutiny

I think the worst bit is that it plays on our desire for fun facts and updated info

"did you know that the tongue map concept you may have been taught in the 90s is incorrect, and actually you taste everything with your whole tongue?"

"did you know that brussels sprouts have been selectively bred to taste better and less bitter than they did a few decades ago?"

now corrupt that concept and just start fuckin lying with misleading info to support your political side, great, wonderful

Yeah, it's been around for a long time, and it's not appropriate... but it belongs to a community/an environment that's not really going to police the appropriateness of the term, so I'll leave it to the streets.

Rosseau wrote an autobiography. It's amazing. I honestly don't know how people can't read Rosseau based on his own life. Especially when they tell us all our ideology is the result of our class. And like, FUCKING ROSSEAU MANG. How can you not see his belief that humanity is garbage is based on his own personal hangups considering the shit he gleefully tells you about and doesn't see the problems with in his autobiography? Stealing and blaming it on lower class others just because he could like Robin taking a shit in class and blaming it on other students. Abandoning his "best friend" when he was having a seizure in the middle of a street because Rosseau didn't want to deal with it. Endless complaining about his life having no meaning or purpose because he would find rich women, charm them into putting him up and fund him and then refuse to pay attention to them just because he didn't want to deal with people who bored him rather than how he was busy with anything. His obsession with a small town on a lake on Switzerland and how that was the ideal life for everyone forever. It's like mass consumer commodity consumption "communists", Twitter leftists, Nepenthe, etc. and their rhetoric versus real life complete with all the stupid shit they put out there wilfully.

Marx too, who didn't give a shit about his family he started (like Rosseau lol) and would ask Engels to get him work then never do it so Engels had to do it all the time, etc. lol
Also Rosseau wrote Emile, despite having zero experience raising or teaching children, he abandoned all his own kids out of wedlock, couldn't stand being around children, etc. Delicious

edit: Rosseau is pretty much the source for the noble savage utopia past theory Nepenthe spreads, Marx lifted it from him. (And was sometimes honest enough to admit the "primitive communism" stage in his theory Science of History was theoretical not historical.) It's all Fall of Man from Eden shit reworded though.

Did nobody else know those girls in high school? Or at least watch Fast Times?

It’s weird. On ethical and moral grounds and just because. But the thirty somethings the girls on my class were dating weren’t starring in America’s number one sitcom. Some were guys who worked at West Coast Video with goatees. In fact, a number of those guys had goatees. And drove Toyota Celicas.
