>>509682402Capitalism does indeed exploit people, but not in the ways Marx described at all. Marx had a problem with the very idea of working for a wage, as a concept (LTV -> surplus value). Marx did not even diagnose the disease properly. The real issue was bourgeois republicanism allowing the capitalists to bribe the system and subjugate it to their narrow interests.
This is the reason they overthrew absolute monarchies, or agitated the plebs to the point that they demanded democratic reforms (Britain, Netherlands, Sweden etc).
The real redpill will always be Absolutism. A king has no reason to harm the economy in favor of the big capitalists, as an absolute king de facto owns the entire economy, taxes the entire economy, and benefits from it.
