Bruh... capitalism has existed at the LATEST since like the late 18th century... its a very recent system actually... You’re thinking of the act of commerce like trading and bartering goods. Most markets prior to the 19th century were very closed and would require like a charter from the monarch of a kingdom to open a company and usually the only people who even allowed to were friends or relatives of the king, always nobles.

Fuck man, American education is so bad...

The dirtbag communist types on Reddit and Twitter were really too hard on this guy. I didn’t speak up when everyone was being ganging up on him and being cruel toward him but I did a cursory look over his stuff and a lot of it wasn’t that radically reactionary. He just seems like kind of a normie boomer who caught up in a moment of heightened culture war tension around a topic he didn’t really understand and was unwittingly thrust into the public consciousness. It seems like he’s suffered a lot of unjustified hate and cruelty.

I also hope his wife is okay.

>t. Never read a Peterson book or watched any of his lectures
