The founding myth of capitalism is that a group of people freely chose to implement private property.

That has not happened once in the history of the world. At the origin of every piece of capitalist property is an act of violent appropriation. The myth of free exchange is an after-the-fact excuse.

Strange then that every culture has developed trade and barter. It sounds like in our natural state you think we all freely give what we have, if we have.

But sharing is something that has to be taught to many children. "Mine!" is a survival instinct.

@HumanServitor I'm a bit confused because i can't tell what your post has to do with mine.

All i'm saying is that capitalist private property has never arisen through a spontaneous voluntary act of free association, but rather through violent appropriation.

I don't see what that has to do with «our natural state», whatever that means, or survival instincts.

Sorry if i'm being obtuse.

yeah "natural state" was a poor descriptor. Suppose I have an apple. Last one of the season. You ask, "can I have your apple?" No, I say, I am hungry and about to eat it ... The beginnings of private property.

But, I say, those grapes you have look tasty. Swap? ... The beginnings of trade. Next year I say, give me your grapes and I will take my apple, and trade them both for for three different fruits elsewhere. Investment. Mercantilism. I haven't needed violence.

That is not private property in the political economy sense that Fabio is using. You’re mixing up a sort of colloquial expression (“my stuff is my private property”) with an analytical term (rentier extraction through unitary ownership of economic chokepoints).

Then how do you explain cultures that don't even have a word for unilateral ownership?

Content warning: #suicide

"Epictetus, like Socrates before him, tells us that death is a bugbear, something that scares children (and, apparently, Aristotle)"

It tickles me to see the second most influential philosopher in the pre-modern West lumped in with children.

Epictetus on suicide: the open door policy

I think that since Epictetus was born a slave - a very different world setting from that of Aristotle - and his philosophy/ideas are marked by that, his remark is not entirely out of character.

As a note: with Aristotle having written most of his work after 49, I think today's academia would call him a late bloomer 🤭 (but they should take some hints to reanalyse their "truths" about intelectual potential)

@JillsJoy Oh I will happily answer in the replies. In this case, this story encapsulates a huge chunk of my soul. It's a story about the intersection between intellectual inquiry, spirituality, play, being useful, self-sacrifice, and the relations of our concepts and labels to the things they denote. If you crack my heart open, you'll see that this book and tomorrow's take up most of the space in there.

Part one of my all time favorite albums is up!

Hey all! I've been hard at work putting together this list of my 500 favorite albums of all time. It probably sounds silly, but I take this list very seriously. I carefully consider what makes an album impactful to me, and rank them as accurately as possible. These reasons vary, and are often very much subjective. In the end, this list is just my personal taste.
