kangay–west:

every time someone qualifies capitalism (”late capitalism”, “unfettered capitalism” etc) it makes me uncomfortable because like, do you think early capitalism was good? would a few fetters fix this shithole? i think not. every conceivable form of capitalism is fucking evil and should be abolished.

I don’t think early capitalism was good, however I think there’s a material difference between early and late capitalist conditions (early capitalism meant certain policies that allowed for primitive acquisition and so on, which were also horrible in their own special evil terrible way) just like there was early and late feudalism… otherwise tho, yeah
