capitalism’s worst enemy has been socialism, most vocally communism.
what was the counteracting -ism to feudalism during the ages? was the counteracting -ism a different one at some point?
all replies welcome, serious textwalls and unserious oneliners alike vice versa


Yes you can see this culturally in the old stereotypes about “old money” versus “new money.”
Rich family with a hereditarily passed down fortune, lands, and control = old money = feudalism.
Entrepreneur who came from nothing but tok advantage of emerging economies to become wealthy overnight = new money = capitalism.
Old money hates new money because capitalism dethroned feudalism.
