The problem with Late Stage Capitalism is that we don’t have any of that sweet delicious Terra Nullis to ruthlessly exploit. We no longer have a rich and fruitful supply of easily oppressed indigent labor to extract surplus from. And we lack the capacity for endless imperialist expansion such that all our surplus male population can be sent abroad as soldiers of fortune.
We’re stuck with a degraded ecology, an enclosed commons, an armed and agitated indigent population, and intercontinental rivals that we can’t just roll over while waving our bibles and firing our guns.
We need to get back to that Old School Capitalism by recreating our frontier. And to do that, we need to bring the empire back home. We need to do imperialism on our own citizens.
I tend to get too involved when trying to communicate an explanation, when an overview would suffice. It’s a struggle. There are some really knowledgeable people here. They tend to observe and stay above the fray. I’ve had exchanges with quite a few that are great resources for information.

Anyone remember what the word for that is, again?
Love? It’s love, right?
No, hypnotoad, I’m sorry to say that that is not love.
Is it fascism? Did you write that from innate knowledge, or was this something you read recently? It’s very coherent and comprehensive.
I thought the same thing. I think there are just some really smart people on here 😂
