    This comment goes hard.

    I sure hope this isn’t something that regularly occurs throughout many civilizations over the past few thousand years.

      It’s not even every few thousand years. There’s always a system like this. Always. Serfdom, slavery, colonialism are all just systems of oppression. It goes back thousands of years, well into the beginning of recorded history.

      Globalism just made it so you didn’t have to see the other people. Technofeudalism just means they don’t have to see you.
