alt Hacker NewsWe still live in a 'Might makes right' society. The only thing that has changed since Medieval times is 'Might' means 'Money'.

I still argue that our current capitalist system is nothing more than an extension of the Norman system. Only capitalist executives see even less of the humanity of their ‘customers’ and the damage from their policies/maximal extraction than medieval lords saw in the serfs of the village that their policies/maximal extraction impacted.
To be fair this is at least an improvement over Medieval times when 'Might' meant 'ancestry'.
