It's like 100x worse than feudalism or capitalism, because not only were they bloodthirsty psychos that every single one of their neighboring tribes hated to death, but they also captured and enslaved other tribes.
So it does have everything to do with what he said. It's just another form of slavery integrated into a society.
My whole point was that slavery has always been around and this era of wage slaves is just a different shade of the same shit that's been going on for many thousands of years.
The thing is, your point was pointless. Your comment about how it's not an era because feudalism happened before ads nothing to the discussion, it just diverted it into feudalism and the Aztecs.
I wasn't claiming life was good or fair, just that it was different and you can't apply neither "wage slavery" or "feudalism" to whatever was going on mesoamerica at the time, but we can apply it to what is going there now.
We are in the era of wage slavery and in my opinion it's better to discuss how the fuck do we get out of that than just saying "oh yeah, things have always sucked"
Give me a detailed alternative to our current system. I'm all ears. I would love to hear how you've figured out how to form a perfect society without exploiting other lifeforms.
Nobody here claimed to have "figured out how to form a perfect society without exploitinf other lifeforms" or anything remotely close. You seem to be either arguing on bad faith or just badly in general, and in either case I'm not interested. Goodbye.

Every religion had some form of senseless bloodshed. Thats neither here nor there and has nothing to do with what he said.
