Feudalism never went away, it just rebranded.
Could you elaborate, since I have absolutely no clue what connections significant enough you are making to say this.
In feudalism, you know full well you’re being exploited. In capitalism, you might not be aware of it, but you still are. The idea is that you’re being paid for your work but, if the pay is so little that it might as well not matter to the payer at all, and is hardly a living wage, then we’re essentially back at square one.
Granted, I don’t think we’re as close to the grain of outright slavery that feudalism was, but on a long enough timeline, we will be. Companies will want more and more profit, taking more and more from the consumers and working class. People will either fight back or… put up with it.
Please don’t be willfully obtuse. You know…
As Leonard Cohen said “everybody knows the game is rigged”
One must imagine Sisyphus happy
He kinda was. He was given the option to stop at any time.
Just stop being poor, rinse repeat
He’s not wrong though. Ask for a raise.
I work as a nurse in Germany, we got collective agreements.
It’s a rigged game. We can’t even get tickets.
You can play if you want. Ask around for others who want to play and start a cooperative.

Hot unions in your area would like to meet you.
Change the word share holder to slave holder and things start to make a lot more sense.
I don’t see either of those words
capitalism: where everyone wins but you

You’re right. Silly us. It just ascribes a price tag to everything that slowly rises while your wages don’t. Then it effectively locks you in place through pricarious financials.
Everyone should just become a YouTuber and travel the world. /s
