@Jay Blake No! NEXT week will be the one when John calls for hanging the last capitalist by the entrails of the last priest! He just needed to introduce some terms first, so that when the nerdtopia or whatever community are told in episode 25 that they are to be a vanguard party they understand what they must do!

[@Mikkamel]

@Jay Blake I haven't seen it, but I assume every episode is just about how the workers should control the means of production. All kidding aside, it's always nice to see a few comrades in the comments of my guilty lib pleasure videos. If I have a problem with your original comment, it is that a lot of the audience for these videos is still in school and would maybe actually listen if you explained what the actual problem is instead of just calling it liberal trash. But then again, that is a lot of effort, and it's not as if I put it in. But if another episode shows up where they speak about the horrors of capitalism, let's try to be friendly and open and actually engage with some people who do not already agree with us!

[@Mikkamel]

@Jay Blake He died in 1784, so let's just say he played a fine season against less than stellar competition.

[@Mikkamel]

@Jay Blake I'll check it out, even knowing that this will make me feel worse, which is why I've been avoiding those videos. But please remember that this video included a graphic description of a child being gradually dismembered until she died and there is a huge target audience for the video actually shocked about that. Liberal trash it may be, but there are people looking for actual explanations. I think a friendlier approach is better. Now I guess I'll see you in that god damn business video that I don't really want to watch. Stay strong!

[@eruno_]

@Jay Blake being concerned about working conditions is not liberal, conservative or uniquely socialist position to take. It's like being humane.

5:00 As far as I know, Böttger was basically an alchemist who promised the Saxon lord, August the Strong, that he'd figure out how to turn various metals into gold. August had Böttger locked up in the castle of Meißen for long enough that he figured out how to make porcellain instead, which was probably even more valuable at the time. Because only the Chinese knew how to make it prior to that, they kept it a well guarded secret and importing it to Europe cost a fortune. If you've ever been to the region (Meißen, Dresden etc.), porcellain is still a huge part of its history and identity. Its invention and production was basically the foundation of Saxony's wealth in the early modern era and also paid for all the nice palaces and cathedrals in Dresden. And all the art and treasure that's basically in every nook and cranny of the Town Castle and Zwinger Palace.

[@CanuckMonkey13]

Interesting. As soon as the name was mentioned, my first thought was "the alchemist who said he could convert things into precious metals" and I was surprised to hear the thing about porcelain instead. I have no conscious memory of this bit of history, but based on your comment I am guessing that I learned it at some point and the relevant neural pathways have degraded too much for me to recall details but are still active enough to ping me with a tidbit when the name is mentioned. tl:dr: BRAINS ARE WEIRD.

[@TheAtheist92]

Silvermining in the Erzgebirge above all else and also the Elbe as a trading route were actually more important than porcellain in creating Saxony's wealth in the EMA.

[@Nicarand]

He's quoting someone else.

[@adm0iii]

Neanderthals lived hand to mouth, like serfs. And like them, when anything happens to make things worse (bad weather, blight, sickness), all they can do is suffer and die. Unlike serfs, neanderthals didn't have landowners forcing more work from them while they suffered and died, so neanderthals are actually better off.

[@maxmullen6337]

Nisbet Bryce. More to the point, James watt wasn’t actually an inventor. He didn’t invent the steam engine and he only became famous through his association with Matthew Boulton the Englishman. He improved on Newcomen’s original design of some 50 or 60 years earlier. He and Boulton are also famous for slowing development of steam power by a series of patents. The steam locomotive was invented by others.

@Brownie Amanteigado You are just assuming they use unethically sourced labor?

[@bangxingho3408]

The Industrial Revolution to me is just like a story I know called ‘The Puppy Who Lost His Way.’ The world was changing, and the puppy was getting...bigger. So, you see, the puppy was like industry. In that, they were both lost in the woods. And nobody, especially the little boy-‘society’-knew where to find ‘em. Except that the puppy was a dog. But the industry, my friends, that was a revolution.

[@CandyOMBodydouble]

History is so cyclical, seems like we are going through our own industrial revolution, as we move away from manual labor to automation. Rather than go about finding ways to organize and shape the changing industrial-automated landscape... They rather just fight to keep companies from automating. I understand no one wants to lose their job, but why is it so difficult to have discussions on how we can take advantage of automation and improve the quality of life to human beings.

[@nope2dat]

I think you already have some examples of those conversations with talk around universal basic income or the potential for self driving transport to revolutionise our public transportation system. I think the problem is that with the digital revolution mass media is dead. If you look at the pre-industrial and industrial eras societies were so much more unified, with collective media through which everyone discussed the issues. Culture and cultural influences were historically defined by which class you belonged in and those sources distributed ideas among themselves. Today in the age of the internet there is no mainstream culture just thousands of competing subcultures all of which compete to have the most influence and dismiss the others.

[@beth8775]

Because surviving automation means doing away with the idea of "earning" a living, and way too many people cannot comprehend that.

[@XSpImmaLion]

It's very important to note that we still didn't move much past the industrial revolution era with all it's problems and conditions - we just outsourced it. The weird hugely unequal situation the world lives in today. There are still people living like neanderthals in several parts of the world, we still have factory floors that look right out of the industrial revolution era in poor countries, but then we have small pockets in the world that seems to be living in some sci-fi utopia. We always hear about, sometimes thought ourselves, about these scenarios where we take modern technology back to the middle ages or some other past period in human history and see the reaction of people seeing these magical devices doing their thing. Actually, you could do that today, without time travel. You just have to go to the right places, where people are still living like it was the middle ages. The fact that you are watching this video at all means you are part of a bit over half the world's population that some form of access to the Internet at all. That it's fast enough to watch a video on KZbin, it fractions that percentage by a whole lot. If you are watching it on a desktop computer PC screen, you are in the less than 25% threshold (the majority only has access through a smartphone). If it's yours, paid for, then the number goes even lower. The inequality gap is just so huge that it's almost impossible to fully comprehend. And it's not only about money, it's, for instance, about having actual access to quality education content like this video, at all, and having time to watch it. We often end up mistakenly believing some stuff out of repetition. For instance, you probably heard that everyone has a smartphone these days. We take it for granted. But actually, despite the smartphone having a growth and explosive spread that is unparalleled in comparison to almost any other modern technology... a bit over 40% of the world still don't have one. And if you add that to the percentage of people who are still using dumbphones, it goes even higher. We evolved fast and a lot during the past century or so, but it happened in an extremely uneven way that seems to only be getting more exacerbated over time, unfortunately...

Boss makes a dollar, I make a dime, that's why I say we eat the rich and smash the factories.

@Marcus White Land doesn't need to be injected unless it has first been violently stolen from us. Entrepreneurs who create for monetary profit do not serve the community- you cannot serve the community and Mammon also. You cannot profit my community by stealing from it. The profit of a good idea is the good produced by that idea. To withhold a good idea is to be in a position to do good and yet refuse to do so. To demand additional reward is to dispossess the community of resources. The good produced by the right hand is stolen by the left.

[@GodManifested]

To be fair, even conservative historians such as Jeremy Black and Niall Ferguson don't try and get away with glossing over this so much anymore (though Ferguson did resort to it when he wrote that Empire book). Jeremy Black even fronted an Industrial Revolution documentary in the UK where he was explicit about the capitalist exploitation/terrible conditions/povert and disease etc. He did try and sneak in a bit about it advancing social mobility though, a theory well debunked by the time the doc was made, so they do still try a little bit!
