You capitalists are profoundly deluded. Your economic system is bad for these reasons:

A land baron deserves all of his great wealth because of the great risk involved in his job. He has to manage an entire region full of serfs and direct the entire economic process. If he fails, there would be total disarray, but since he has not then this system is clearly justified. In exchange the serfs keep some of the food they produce and a hovel. Everybody gains!

Feudalism is a part of human nature. Like a child needs a parent, humans need a baron to control the land while the serfs work the land. It represents an orderly and stable system based upon our real human nature. If we gave this land away to capitalists then serfs would have to wander and find employment and their own new parent. There would be no incentive to work from all this chaos in economic society.

Capitalism and liberal democracy sound nice in theory but can only fail in practice. Have you not heard of the Reign of Terror? Every time capitalism is put into practice it ends up either failing or surviving but producing misery and death.

Feudalism has produced wonders for society and should be celebrated rather than attacked. All your pitchforks, swords, daggers, armor, and horses you own - that was created by the wonder of feudalism. A serf is better off now than they ever were in history through the growing standard of living feudalism provides.

Instead of ending feudalism, it would be smarter to reform and better it. We should concentrate on increasing the amount of grain a serf is allowed to keep while still respecting the hard work, wisdom, and intelligence a baron possesses that entitles them to their riches.

I urge you to reconsider your position. It is just a phase in your youth and you'll see how quickly you'll abandon it.

Long live the King!

I know you are being sarcastic but feudalism actually is ingrained in human nature.

Really made me think, thx OP

wtf I hate economic freedoms now

holy fuck I didn't know that this level of autism was possible

>mfw we have an entire field of scientific study already dedicated to how to optimize productivity, but some dude on the internet thinks his "research" and shitty cartoon makes him better informed

If economics were actually scientific then recessions wouldn't happen.

You mean if people actually listened to economicists recessions would be less likely. Economicists warned the government and wall street before the 2009 recession occurred, but nobody really wanted to hear it.

>Implying feudalism isn't the best political system humanity has came with.

...

That's like saying that if seismology was actually a science that earthquakes wouldn't happen.

Economics is a science of discovery. Nobody sat down one day and DECIDED that price floors reduce quantity produced. Nobody. That wasn't a decision, it was a fact they discovered.

Another thing they discovered is that trying to control an economic system always, always, ALWAYS creates problems, because it is impossible for any actor to have perfect information. The best informed people to make economic choices are the people themselves, because only they have full knowledge of their own situations, and only they can react to events on the ground level in real time.

This is the entire point of a non-interventionist free market system, a thousand people acting for themselves are more efficient than ten people acting for a thousand people. This is why planned economies always lack allocative efficiency.

>M-muh automation
Listen. As time goes on, allocative efficiency becomes MORE important, not less. If you can produce everything you need, but you can't get it to the people who need it, that's worse than not being able to produce what you need at all. The free market creates the strongest impetus to meet demands. The free market will continue to exist even in an age of total automation, the only thing that will change will be the currency involved and how people earn it.

fokk off kristinn

You were going so well until you claimed that your preferred economic ideology was supported by science.

This.

I'm actually a monarchist

Congratulations, you managed to make Smith AND Hobbes spin in their graves

>muh hooomun naitchuh

our default state was hunter-gathering. anything beyond that is unnatural

My personal favorite is ancap with voluntary family-based self-sustaining communes.

This. It's the most stable, resilient, and consistent form of government yet invented.

Also, every other form of government is just "feudalism with a thin veneer of _________." Even if the process for changing the people at the top is different, all the lower levels are still essentially based on a trickle-down of personal loyalty.

>that image
That was correct at the time. Feudalism created much more wealth on the whole than the retarded savagery that preceded it, and laid the ground for future political, technological and economic advancements by amassing a surplus of wealth in the hands of an agent or set of agents that could invest it in innovations.

If you don't like the system, leave it and create your own system.

>meme attacks capitalistism subtly promoting socialism
>unaware that gommunism is literally neo-feudalism
loving every laugh

Socialism isn't sustainable

And how the fuck did we left being hunter-gatherers, then? Did aliens teach whites how to build civilizations?
Genes and culture coevolver over the last millenia. Building shit and conquering stuff is literally more natural to a human than living in a berry picking commune

>believing in supply/demand meme
Just

The only unethical thing about Feudalism was being born into an economic arrangement that you couldn't opt out of, at least not without paying.

global oligarchy with crony governments is feudalism too.

There is nothing wrong with feudalism

No its unethical because there is no check against incompetent leaders. + lack of social mobility.

Incompetent leaders lead to failed communities or failed states, a new leader will rise.

You know what would go really well with modern day feudalism?

Wide scale distribution and use of small thorium reactors that output a small towns worth of power cheaply. This would allow for water purification as well.

You could have your modern day conveniences without modern day hazards (namely a large federal government)

tell me how much this gets your neurons firing bros

but feudalism was great. otherwise those two shit fucks would be nothing but cock sleeves for whoever was invading that week.

Well said user

"Incompetent leaders" would be the Lords that firmly believe killing, extortion, forcefully taking land/wealth, just overall being an asshole of a human because
>muh I own the land, that makes me above the law

>This. It's the most stable, resilient, and consistent form of government yet invented.
Truth. Though not most effecient. So societies developed enough to use other from of government outpace feudalism. But in the age of strife all goes back to feudalism.

Feudalism is savagery and most basic and easy to employ form of government.

>be feudal serf
>work the land for your lord
>pay him a tenth of what you earn

>be modern man
>unemployment is rife
>pay more than a tenth to the government even on minimum wage

I will never get why libcucks unironically think that predatory people won't adapt and find ways to take over any hypothetical government they would try to push.

Especially since all they do is push tearing down governments/systems without a goddamn plan in advance.

There were as many feudalisms as there were kingdoms, French feudalism was much more lax than “german” or english feudalism.

I think it is the only system that makes sense though.

>economics
>science
pick one

You should think about why people literally died from hunger during famines (but only common people not lords) and why this is not happening today.

There was a single famine in the whole of French history, not caused by feudalism, and we had a king who made it so that every peasant would get two poultries a week.

Famine and life expectancy to criticize the systems in the middle ages are fucking retarded.

You didn't pay in cash though just shit like farm crops.

If you were extremely good at sewinng, you can pay a year's worth of tax with a well sewn table cloth because sewing used to take a shitload of time back then.

Some people even paid with multiple wax candles.

>one post by this ID

for off Norweigan, I know it's you. no proxy will change it

>people don't starve to death today
U wot m8? Globalism allows us to hide the extremes of class somewhere where the differences aren't as easily noticed, but they still exist.

Employment in capitalism is a voluntary agreement. If you don't like your job, you can find another. You are able to become a capitalist yourself if you have the ability. You can buy your own house and land.

Serfdom to a feudal lord isn't voluntary. If you don't like what you're doing in your respective fiefdom, it is very unlikely you would be able to easily leave that fiefdom and work for another feudal lord. You are very unlikely to become to a feudal lord if you aren't born to a noble family, even if you have great ability. You cannot become a land owner unless you're a noble.

>being this retarded

This is a new one

That's wrong though, if you or another lord pay for it you could change your allegiance and all serfs could buy their freedom, also you could learn any sort of trade for a fee since a lot of craftsmen made a living from apprenticeship, and competence was often wellrewarded since having good weapons and armors, or serving good food, was a show of status.

These rules had extremely variance over countries and time periods. Feudal dependency varied from paying rent to slave status.

>being this black

> That's wrong though, if you or another lord pay for it you could change your allegiance and all serfs could buy their freedom

But that's nowhere near as easy as voluntarily switching jobs in a capitalist society. You don't have to pay to quit your job, or ask for your boss' permission.

> you could learn any sort of trade for a fee since a lot of craftsmen made a living from apprenticeship, and competence was often wellrewarded since having good weapons and armors, or serving good food, was a show of status.

Yes, you could attain a higher status with ability, like becoming a middle manager of a large company. But you wouldn't own the company and become a capitalist.

To become a lord yourself, you would have to be granted nobility by somebody like a King. Your fate would ultimately be in their hands. To become a capitalist, you can get there by nothing but your own volition (whether or not that's necessarily easy is another argument.)

What did he mean by this?

Well yes, I mentioned it previouy, I am only talking from the French perspective, I know that the further east you went the more brutal feudalism was.
