Yes, via violent domestic and hyper-violent international exploitation.

Read the linked text.

Like I said, it wasn't moral. It is still a result of capitalism. Think we've probably finished here because you're not my teacher and you don't assign me reading.

It was not, it was a result of industrialization, followed by Imperialism.

Suit yourself though.

Colonial imperialism began with industrialization in your explanation? Capitalist countries were colonizing the world well before the industrial revolution.

[-] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 2 points 5 months ago

Colonialism is not the same as what I am referring to as Imperialism. I specifically mean the point at which Capitalism reaches outward and exports Capital to less developed countries to super-exploit for super-profits.
