Henry Ford vs Karl Marx. Epic Rap Battles Of History

[@TheAlmightyBracket]

Look, guys, I absolutely love appearances from Deadpool, Batman, Joker and so on but there's something so special when you guys go down the actual historical figure path. Every time it's so good. I'm not saying the fictional character ones are bad, I can quote the majority of them from heart and love them dearly. These ones just hit so much harder. It's so good.

[@tarodo980]

True the historical ones just hit different.

[@PotatoPatatoVonSpudsworth]

Real people's lives are so much more complex and messy than fictional people's, and that means there's just way more material to work with. The bragging, the banter, the insults, and the callouts all hit so much harder because they're all REAL.

[@tabularasa_br]

As a Brazilian, I only got the "Brazilian city" after rewatching the battle. Ford used to have a factory (?) in my country where they harvested what I believe is rubber. They used it to make car tires. The name of the industrial complex is Fordlandia. If I'm not mistaken, it is a ghost town, or a nature reserve by today's date.

[@vylbird8014]

It was supposed to be a rubber plantation, but it was an unmitigated disaster. It's often cited as an example of colonial arrogance. Ford sent an all-American administrative team to run the place, refusing to accept any Brazilian in a position other than menial labor. So there was no-one in a position of authority who know about the local culture, weather conditions, ecology, or even the basics of rubber tree cultivation. It was run as if it were a little enclave of American work culture, with laborers expected to live in American-style dorms, served only cheap American food in the company canteen, and generally denied access to any local culture. Also expected to maintain American working hours in the tropical heat and sun, entirely ignoring that this risked heat-stroke. The trees were plagued by various diseases and damaging insects because, to maximise production, they were all planted in close proximity creating a dangerous monoculture. The employees were so miserable that they actually rose up in rebellion and shut down the plantation, until the government sent in the army to force them back to work at gunpoint. It never managed to produce any rubber - and some years later, chemists figured out how to turn oil into synthetic rubber, rendering the whole projust instantly obsolete. The town was abandoned for decades, aside from squatters who moved in out of desperation because the housing was still somewhat liveable.

[@itsybitsycherry]

Adding more context to this, as a fellow Brazilian - Fordlândia was a total failure and was given up on just a few years in, thanks to absurd labor conditions and just terrible agricultural planning in general. A 2009 article reported “not a single drop” of rubber made it to a Ford car. It did become something of a ghost town for a few decades afterwards, but got a population boost in the late 2000s and is now reported to house around 3000 people.
