What do you mean? It's a good thing people have fridges, but that doesn't mean having the upper class is good. God bless capitalism for ending feudalism, but damn it for creating unnecessary poverty, war and creating the conditions for a catastrophic ecological collapse.
Excuse the low effort question...

Whoever makes this argument isn't actually saying "capitalism is good and has brought progress". They are in fact saying "capitalism is the only system that can bring progress". If we look back in history, progress has always been happening even in non-capitalist systems. Major disasters in the past have set back progress but the general trend is towards better life. Their statement is only true if we assume that capitalism is the only system that has ever existed in human history except when there were set backs. Such setbacks are obvious examples of socialism or the usefully vague "totalitarianism". This is an argument made by those who do not understand history or choose to misrepresent it.

Yes this is eaxctly what I meant!

And they'd be right. Faggots have to pay for a gym membership to build muscle that they let atrophy all day while they sit in restraints in their office cubicles breathing bacteria infested central air while regular people get to enjoy the fresh air of the outdoors all day and utilize their bodies to their fullest.

Jason Hickel's work is good for specifically debunking the World Bank's claims of alleged poverty reduction:

completely false, pure ideology. best part of feudalism youre a lord, or even a successful artisan under a paternal lord, youre much better off than a sweat factory slave or an african miner or child soldier
