It's common sense. If you can't feel anxiety when in debt, there's something deeply wrong with you.
Oh wow, you live in modern day and dare complain about petty noble squabbles in the Middle Ages? Talk about deluded.
Found the ideologically pozzed modernist.
Anthony Diaz
Sounds like you are projecting. Does that college debt bother you so much? How big is it?
Yeah, talking about history in context of your examples is deluded, especially when your points are getting knocked down, but ok.
I did not say anything to the effect, but nice strawman.
You have no point to make and you are now attacking me instead of my arguments. Stop embarrassing yourself and get off the computer for a bit, pinko.

The oath is a contract and the contract will be enforced by the lord, his willing peers and any higher lords both legally able to and desiring to involve themselves in the matter.
Yeah, a bunch of wealthy capitalists funded marx while he pissed away his life.
Communism holds more in common with feudalism than capitalism.
Some people enjoy making war. Some people enjoy having slaves. Some people enjoy being destroyed. Happiness is not something unto itself. It's merely the result of an individuals satisfaction with their achievements and/or the current situation they find themselves in.
How can one force self-interest? How can one force debt-anxiety? Both can only ever result from voluntary participation, knowingly or unknowingly, in such a system. Both can only exist within the individual. They cannot be implanted. They must already be there.

You're playing dumb and know nothing of pre 18th century politics. How hard you miss the point of everything, might as well be talking to a communist.
Owen Morales
Point out the things I don't understand. Pray tell, which parts of Feudalism I did not understand? The ones described in your holy book? Because I have my degrees in history and philosophy and I follow evidence and not historic materialism?
Dude, if you have nothing to say, then keep quiet. If you do, point out what I missed and then we can have a productive debate.
Christian Howard
We'll end up back to Feudalism soon enough, once expansionism of Capitalism slows down and genetic modified humans become the norm creating new hierarchy. The ruling class of today is already "copyrighting" genetic code for tomorrow, someday soon you'll be able to simply buy human-like creatures to work for you.
Feudalism is really the result of rationing essential resources(land, water, food; mostly focusing on land though according to history) becoming consolidated over multiple generations. The owning, celebrity and warrior classes always turn into a royal caste given enough time. The only way to stop it is through eternal revolution and wanton destruction of bloodlines or through endless expansionism that allows competing new nation-state powers to rise. Rising states is something the ruling class must stop if they are to survive in the long run, especially today simply because the danger of nuclear weapon to the entire planet.

Kys lad.

Yes, being 100% dependent on your local lord is freedom.
Only a retard would accept "his place" that's not based on merit. Being ruled by those who are inferior to you just because they got born at the right family is against natural law and utterly degenerate.
I can't believe people are unironically shilling for feudalism here, like ancap was not enough.

If you're thinking about low literacy, that can be remedied today with technology that lets us to access data from far away. And if you're thinking about religion. The picture has a point that modern world lost Truth and cares only to put heresies and modern lies into your head.
