    Capitalism, the deadliest and most severe of diseases. Deadlier than the Bubonic Plague by an uncomparable margin.

      Slave Empires,Feudalism, Mercantilism and Capitalism are grand structures that humans put themselves. Of course more pieces of a grand human structure will die in a period of centuries in systems that span the planent compared to just a small part of the world in a few decades

        I was sort of making a “300 billion die in capitalism” joke, but I was trying to be subtle about it (probably not well). Of course a small time period of a pandemic in human civilization would usually result in less deaths than centuries of a grand structure in human civilization. I probably should have said capitalism is deadlier than all of the diseases in history combined, but I wanted to avoid being misleading in case I made a false statement. Perhaps if one considers comparing the death percentage of Europe’s total population from the Bubonic Plague with the death percentage of humans who lived under capitalism, my subtlety may have been more noticeable, thus I should have emphasized proportional relations.

        If you meant pills that prevent revolutionary thought, they have the side effect of suicidal thoughts and/or ｃａｐｉｔａｌｉｓｍ

        If you meant pills that cause revolutionary thought, they tend to come in Marxist theory book form
