    I haven’t done that

    Yes, you have

    gaining power over others

    That’s what monopolisation of power means.

    But not prevent the acquisition of power over others, or prevent exploitation.

    Yes, exactly that. That’s what democracy’s supposed to handle.

    To me it seems like feudalism never ended.

    There are distinct differences of capitalism and feudalism.

      Yes, you have

      I disagree.

      Yes, exactly that.

      LOL so you believe there is “a ton of historical and anthropological evidence of societal structures that prevent” people gaining power over others? You believe there have been “a ton” of human societies with no exploitation? You have no idea what you’re talking about.

      That’s what democracy’s supposed to handle.

      LOL

      There are distinct differences of capitalism and feudalism.

      Oh I see! Distinct differences! LOL

        I disagree.

        Well, you’re wrong.

        You believe there have been “a ton” of human societies with no exploitation? You have no idea what you’re talking about.

        There have been a ton of societies which limited the amount of power individuals could amass.

        Oh I see! Distinct differences! LOL

        Yeah. Feudal property relations are totally the same as capitalistic property relations. No difference whatsoever. Pretty much everyone is still a subsistence farmer. /s

          Well, you’re wrong.

          LOL

          limited

          Ah! So now you’re changing your tune! Not “preventing” but “limiting”. Best of luck, maybe you’ll get to reality in the end.
