@stux A nice little "what the fuck" moment I had when perusing "Wealth of Nations," a seminal work by Adam Smith, essentially the founder of capitalism, was when I found out that Smith calls landlords basically cruel parasites who contribute nothing to society and collect rent that they do not deserve (It's in chapter 11). To see the founder of capitalism espouse a view that's nowadays commonly associated with far-left movements kinda woke me up.
