Missionaries were the original intelligence agents. Cross in one hand, colonial treaty in the other. They destroyed gods, languages, and knowledge systems, then had the audacity to call it “bringing light.” Every converted soul was a victory for empire, not for heaven.
@princejoe70@cecild84@_AfricanUnion@ECOWASParliamnt You just listed everything you won't dare ask from European countries that are also kicking you out, and more importantly, everything you won't dare demand from your governments.
@Martin_ASFL@Handre Btw, its also biologically impossible for white males to be men as you've been homosexuals culturally for millennia.
Knowing that you're homosexuals as white males and have only been masquerading as men, will go a long way in understanding your love for trann!es, cucking. etc.
@Martin_ASFL@Handre As I've told you before, you're never risen to be anything more than pathological liars, all that "superior race" and "we're christian" nonsense is all to mask your depraved nature. And its unfortunate seeing some black people falling for your trickery.
@Big_Safe365@MxolisiBob You're raising soon to be race traitors/ c00ns if that's your reasoning, and what's funny is there's nothing "other" races hate than race traitors yet you find black people doing it all the time thinking they'll get a different result while fundamentally being at the very bottom.
@OperationDudula The sheer number of c00ns supporting the anti-illegal immigration movement is very telling, you can tell abanye benu are just happy that ubaas can relax for minute.
People defend capitalism because they confuse it with commerce. They believe “capitalism” is when people start businesses and sell things.
If people understood that the thing they call capitalism and love so much is actually just commerce and that it’s not the same thing as capitalism, they would feel very different.
This is because a local baker selling bread, a mechanic fixing cars, or an artisan selling wares on a digital storefront is a sign of commerce in a market economy, which is simply a mechanism for exchanging goods and services based on supply and demand.
Needless to say, this has existed for thousands of years before capitalism was created.
As economic historian Fernand Braudel pointed out, commerce and capitalism are not only distinct; but historically, they have often operated at cross-purposes.
According to Braudel, ordinary commerce is competitive and transparent, while capitalism is anti-competitive and deliberately opaque, making it a zone of privilege held by a small elite who bend the rules in their favour.
Braudel further argues that commerce, or the market, is horizontal, transparent, and competitive and as old as civilization itself. It involves individuals or small groups trading goods, where barriers to entry are low, no single player dominates, and profit is a reward for fulfilling a specific need.
Capitalism, meanwhile, is a specific institutional arrangement that emerged relatively recently in human history, around the 16th to 17th centuries. It is NOT just people “trading stuff”. It is instead the legal and financial system where the means of production are privately owned, and the primary objective is the continuous, infinite accumulation of capital.
Because of this accumulation-obssessed nature of capitalism, when it scales up, it seeks to eliminate the free play of commerce to protect its investments. True market competition is risky for massive capital as it drives prices down and threatens profit margins.
Braudel contended that capitalism only begins where commerce ends. It is the zone of high finance and state collusion. Because it operates across vast distances such as the 17th-century spice trade, information takes months to travel, which creates a deliberate lack of transparency.
Braudel noted that the great capitalists of the early modern era in Madeira and Venice or the Dutch East India Company, never wanted to compete in a fair, transparent market because competition slices profit margins to the bone. Instead, they secured royal charters, exclusive trading rights, and naval protection. At the same time, the state granted them legal monopolies, effectively outlawing competition.
Therefore, capitalism naturally trends toward creating monopolies and securing state interventions like bailouts, subsidies, and regulatory capture to shield itself from the very market forces it claims to champion. In fact, the most important takeaway from Braudel’s analysis is that capitalism is NOT the natural evolution or the highest form of the free market, it is its dark shadow.
So, when our lizard overlords use “free market” and “capitalism” interchangeably, they’re deliberately hiding this distinction and using the moral legitimacy of the hard-working, transparent business owner to defend the structural privileges of the protected financial elite and its regulatory capture.
If ordinary people could comprehend these distinctions, many self-described “capitalists” would realise they are just pro-commerce, and actually anti-capitalist, because it would be clear that defending “capitalism” means defending the right of a small parasite class to bypass the market entirely.
