Capitalism isn't ideology (saying opposite is Marxist brainrot). Capitalism existed throughout whole history of human civilization and will be exists in the future. Marx's theory is just typical for 18-19th centuries utopian shit according to which people would work for free, but no one would have responsibility for anything. People are hierarchical cruel monkeys. Our brains, subconscious habit and urges derived from stone age and absolutely haven't changed.All ideologies, from Marxism to centrism, fail to take into account people's natural dispositions, it becomes even sadder that billions of people seriously debate, study, and discuss them. Literally entire layers of historical scholarship is useless intellectual masturbation and role-playing. Literally, all truly effective political thought ended in early 19th century and the social benefits of the early 20th century were not politics but technological advancement and population growth. Therefore, there are no ideas other than liberalism on the American model, and there is no country other than the United States, and the Westoids who ridicule this system simply don't understand how much worse things could be. Moreover, 99% of ideologies from famous political compass are just generic anti-modern sentiments, because modernity is uncomfortable for significant fraction of the male population because it removes the guaranteed status structures that low-status men used to rely on - guaranteed wife, a place in the hierarchy and respect from those below him. Traditionalism, nazism, whatever flavor you like - they're all fundamentally attempts to restore the guaranteed status floor for average men. But it's not a real political philosophy. It's just demand for a participation trophy dressed up in runes, eagles, whatever you like.
Discussion about what constitutes capitalism always boils down to how much trade is required to qualify as capitalism. Imo an underrated quality is are the richest rich because they are rulers and therefore owners or stuff likd temple and royal estates, or are specialist technocractic billionaires administrators of their businesses first and foremost and rarely if ever themselves directly in politics as is modern practice.
>>18771220>Capitalism isn't ideology (saying opposite is Marxist brainrot). Capitalism existed throughout whole history of human civilization and will be exists in the future.Marxists assert that capitalism literally did not exist prior to Adam Smith, but that's just them attempting to attribute ideology to what already existed by his time, as Britain's industrialization was already well underway by that point. It's just economic development. That's all it ever was.

>>18771220>Capitalism isn't ideology (saying opposite is Marxist brainrot).this is backwards though, marxists call capitalism a mode of production not an ideology. Liberalism is the ideology they ascribe to capitalism.
Imagine how many assworms lodged in your colon you need to write this shit.
>>18771244>It's just economic development.How is it that a Greeks invented an actual functioning computer, yet never developed into their own industrial age then? Why did actual Greeks scoff at men of technics for being obsessed with their retarded gadgets in contrast to moderns who worship experts?>That's all it ever was.*In your tautology
Ants are eugenic
>>18771220I'm not a commie but capitalism is also shit. It's not "natural", humans evolved to live in tribes rather than being greedy individualists hoarding all the resources.
>>18771917>How is it that a Greeks invented an actual functioning computerBecause clockwork toy for rich isn't really groundbreaking technology>yet never developed into their own industrial age thenIndustrialization requires cheap energy and economic prerequisites to replace expensive labor. Yes, Southern Europe had coal deposits but they were garbage compared to ones from Northern Europe and they had cheap muscle labor (as well as all world outside Western Europe by late 18th century).>Why did actual Greeks scoff at men of technics for being obsessed with their retarded gadgets in contrast to moderns who worship experts?Because it has been showing of status. Technicians in Ancient Greece had approximately the same place in hierarchy that modern plumbers have.>>18771922Ants are most based insects and chads of insect world.>>18772272You might not be a commie, but you're definitely idiot.>humans evolved to live in tribes rather than being greedy individualistsHumans evolved in bands of 50 closely related persons where resource-sharing was enforced by kinship and you shared meat because spoilage without fridges was hours and five your cousins with clubs would bash your skull if you dare to hide some food behind a bush.
