Does North Korea have the noble class I described? Do you have any evidence that such a class exists?

[–] JohnDClay@sh.itjust.works 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, it has a king and royal family.

That's both not true and also not what I asked. The UK has a king and noble family, does that make it a feudal system?

[–] JohnDClay@sh.itjust.works 0 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Mostly not because they don't have the political power.

There are other monarchies in the world today that do hold political power. That doesn't mean that they're governing over a feudal system. The noble system I described is one of the defining characteristics of feudalism.

Okay, in the oversimplified graphic of the meme, I was including absolute monarchy under feudalism, since I thought it was closer to that than capitalism.

Right, because you're doing zero analysis of the economic or political structures involved and playing fast and loose with terminology.

[–] JohnDClay@sh.itjust.works 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Because that's what the original meme did. I was trying to fit within it's framework.

They're the largest landholders in the entire country. Holy shit you're fucking dumb.
