2025-07-27 16:45:40 GMT

While capitalism's origins are disputed, we believe there is a case for tracing them to the island of Madeira1, 320 miles off the west coast of north Africa. Madeira was first colonized by the Portuguese in the 1420s. It was a rare example of a genuinely uninhabited island. The Portuguese colonists treated it a terra nullius: a "blank slate." They soon began clearing it of the resource after which it was name: madeira is Portuguese for wood.
At first, forests on the island were felled to meet the need for timber - which had been all but exhausted in Portugal and was in high demand for shipbuilding - and to clear land for raising cattle and pigs. In other words, the original colonists simply extended the economy which they were familiar. But after a few decades, they discovered a more lucrative use of Madeira's land and trees: producing sugar.
Until that point, economies had remained, at least in part, embedded in religious, ethical, and societal structures. Land, labor, and money tended to possess social meanings that extended beyond the value that could be extracted from them. In medieval Europe, for instance, feudal economies - while highly oppressive - were strongly connect to both the Church and a codified societal system of mutual obligation between large landowners and their serfs and vassals.
On Madeira, as the geographer Jason Moore has shown2, a form of economic organization developed that was in some respects different from anything that had gone before. On this newly discovered island, the three crucial component of the economy - land, labor, and money - were detached from any wider cultural context and turned into commodities3: products whose meaning could be reduced to numbers in a ledger.
Onto the blank slate of Madeira's land, the colonists imported labor in the form of slaves, first from the Canary Islands 300 miles to the south and then from Africa. To finance their endeavors, colonists imported money from Genoa and Flanders. Each of these components - land, labor, and money - had been stripped of their societal meanings before. But arguably not all in the same place, at the same time.
By the 1470s, this tiny island became the world's biggest source of sugar. The fully commoditized system that the Portuguese created was astonishingly productive. Using slave labor, freed from all social constraints, the colonists were able to produce sugar more efficiently than anyone had done before. But something else was new - the amazing speed at which that productivity peaked and then collapsed.
Sugar production on the island peaked in 1506, just a few decades after it began. Then fell precipitously, by 80 percent within twenty years - a remarkable rate of collapse. Why? Because Madeira ran out of madeira. Stoking the boilers needed to refine and process a kilogram of sugar required 60 kilograms of wood. The enslaved laborers had to travel farther and farther afield to find this wood, extracting it from ever steeper and more remote parts of the island. In other words, more labor was needed to produce the same amount of sugar. In economic terms, the productivity of labor collapsed, tumbling fourfold in twenty years. In tandem, the forest clearance drove several endemic Madeiran animal species to extinction. The island-wide disturbance of forest ecosystems was sufficiently serious that the first of several major extinctions of endemic mollusks occurred in the early sixteenth century, the result of "rapid and large-scale change in the habitat, from woodland to grassland."4
So what did the Portuguese sugar planters do? They did what capitalists everywhere would go on to do. They left. They took their operation to another recently discovered island farther south, São Tomé, 190 miles off the west coast of central Africa. There the pattern had been established on Madeira was repeated: Boom, Bust, Quit.
When sugar production on São Tomé went bust, the Portuguese moved on again - this time to the coastal lands of Brazil, where their much bigger operations followed the same script: Boom, Bust, Quit. Then other imperial powers moved to the Caribbean, with the same results, burning through one frontier after another. Since then, the pattern had been followed across countless commodities and commercial schemes - the sparks that ignited Madeira's forests scattered across the world. They continue setting fire to ecosystems and social systems to this day, consuming all that lies in their path. This seizure, exhaustion, and abandonment of new geographical frontiers is central to the model we call capitalism.
"Boom, Bust, Quit" is what capitalism does. The ecological crises it causes, the societal crises it causes, the productivity crises it causes are not perverse outcomes of the system. They are the system.
Before long, Portugal was supplanted by other nations, and England quickly became the dominant colonial power. Over the course of the next several centuries, European colonial powers systematically looted one region after another. They stole labor, land, resources, and money, which they then used to stoke their own industrial revolutions. The United Kingdom's great and unequal wealth was built on colonial theft in Ireland, the Americas, Africa, India, Australia, and elsewhere. One estimate suggests that, across two hundred years, Britain extracted from India alone an amount of wealth equivalent to $45 trillion in today's money.5
To handle the greatly increased scope and scale of transaction, the colonial nations established new financial system that would eventually come to dominate their economies - instruments of extraction whose use has intensified. It continues today with ever-increasing sophistication, assisted by offshore banking networks.6 Powerful people and corporations seize wealth from around the world and hide it from the governments that might otherwise have taxed it, and from the people they have robbed. As offshore tax havens and secrecy regimes shift capital even further out of sight, this disappearing frontier in the invention of evermore creative financial schemes.
Using international debt and the harsh conditions attached to it (a system known as "structural adjustment"),7 tax havens and secrecy regimes, transfer pricing (moving wealth between subsidiaries),8 and other clever instruments, rich nations have continued to loot the poor, often with the help of corrupt officials and the proxy governments they install, support, and arm. Commodity traders working with kleptocrats and oligarchs fleece poorer nations - seizing their natural resources, effectively without payment. The US research group Global Financial Integrity estimated that $1.1 trillion a year flows illegally out of poorer nations,9 stolen through tax evasion and the transfer of money within corporations.
If this rapacious cycle were interrupted, the system we call capitalism would fall apart. Capitalism depends upon constant growth, and must forever find new frontiers to colonize and exploit. So now its attention turns to the deep ocean floor, in search of mineral clusters to mine, and fish populations yet to be driven to exhaustion. It looks to outer space, seeking to extract minerals from planets and asteroids, or to stake out new colonies:10 escape hatches for the super-wealthy to be exploited once Earth is no longer habitable.
A system based on perpetual growth cannot exist without peripheries and externalities (the "unintended," and often devastating, consequences of economic activity). There must always be an extraction zone, from which materials are taken without full payment; and a disposal zone, where costs are dumped in the form of waste and pollution. As the scale of economic activity increases, so capitalism transforms every corner of the planet-from the atmosphere to the deep ocean floor. The Earth itself becomes a sacrifice zone. And its people? We are transformed into both the consumers and the consumed.
All exploitative systems require justifying fairy tales, and the true nature of capitalism has been disguised from the beginning by such myths and fables. The Portuguese colonists of Madeira claimed that there had been a natural apocalypse,11 a wildfire that raged for seven years, consuming all the wood on the island. There was an apocalypse all right, but there was nothing natural about it. The island's forest was incinerated by a different blaze - the first of capitalism.
The fairy tal of capitalism grew win in 1689, when John Locke published his Second Treatise of Civil Government.12 Locke claimed that "in the beginning all the world was America." By this, he meant a terra nullius: like Madeira, a no-man's-land in which wealth was just waiting to be taken. But, unlike Madeira, the Americas were heavily inhabited - by tens of millions of indigenous people. To create his terra nullius they would have to be erased - either eradicated or enslaved.13

How many election cycles will we go through before Democrats start to realize that voting isn't going to fix this shit? I think two at least.
The fashes will rig the shit out of the 2026 elections, but Dems will hold out hope that Newsom will ride in with his hairline and annoying face to save the country.
When Newsom flops because everyone hates that guy, I think there's a chance Dems start to question their vote blue no matter who plan.
That means we've got until November 2028 until they realize their failure. Then they'll go through the stages of grief, which will take at least 6 months.
So I'm thinking that by 2029, we could see Dems in large numbers join the resistance movements that are building right now.
That's only four years, but I could be wrong, it could take dems 8 years or more to admit that they've ruined everything.

In other words, Democrats could respond to the waiver vote by paralyzing the Senate, and stopping the giant Trump tax bill from ever reaching the floor.

They're going to send him to South Sudan. Now that the Supreme Court gave Trump this power to deport anyone to any country for any reason without due process ... this is how it is now.

Dems are scared of Mamdani's win in NYC because they say that what he did in NYC won't work in other parts of the country.
Wrong.
What Mamdani did in NYC is economic populism. The details are geographically specific, but the message is economic populism.
The crafty politicians in other parts of the country need to figure out how to do that in their communities. You know, fucking do something.
So either Democrats don't understand this, or they do understand this, but either way, they're once again coming up short while the fascists gain power at an alarming rate.

Which is why Clinton lost to Trump in 2016. Enough people called her Stronger Together slogan bullshit, particularly when people saw how Sanders and his supporters were treated.
The Democratic party is the single greatest threat to us besides the GOP. The Dems are a lightening rod for any energy directed at the oligarchy. They take all of the people power and run it straight into the ground where it can't do anything.

Hegseth thanked Trump more than once and the troops more than once in like a 2-minute period. Then he thanked god for leading them on their mass killing spree. It is what Jesus would have done.

Trump is such an asshole, and millions of USians love it.

yeah, the US isn't a racist slave nation built on stolen land and genocide. the US is a good thing and always has been until donald trump.
the US is an illegal colonization nation that should have been destroyed two centuries ago.

How many Dems watch Handmaid's Tale and fail to see the message? The message isn't do nothing while they gain power and then fight to the death to topple them from power.

A wise man once said, "A bird in the hand is better than two in a tree."
Why is it be better that I'm holding one bird rather than two in a tree? Shouldn't all of the birds be in the tree? Why do I want to hold a bird?

Look at what happens to people when they rattle their cages. Throughout history there are many many bodies buried.
Look at Frank Little and Joe Hill. Look at Medgar Evers, MLK, Fred Hampton, Malcolm X.
Look at what they're doing to pro-Palestine political activists.
This is a police state and has been my entire life. People who pretend like all of this shit is brand new, don't know US history.
Kent State?
If you step up to challenge the oligarchy, they will cut you down. This is why we need mass mobilization, but that's very hard when they control the means to mass communicate and organize.

there is power in not voting. there's also research to back up this claim. in the US, voting for the dems versus the gop is voting for the oligarchy either way you decide.
withholding support from both parties sends a message. it's more powerful than voting for a dem prez candidate in a state that is already decided by the electoral college.
boycotts actually do work, despite the promises by the oligarchy that they never work.
if the parties want us to vote for their candidates, run better candidates. if they don't, then they didn't want our votes.

we're witnessing a genocide, and we're apparently powerless to stop it.
i'll never forgive the politicians in the US who supported this, and it's nearly every single one of them in DC excluding maybe a dozen who are against this genocide.
Because of this, I will never call myself a Democrat. If any of them want my votes, they're going to have to show me how they actively tried to stop this genocide.

Fascism is not coming to the US. Fascism is here. It's been here all along. Who beat #TyreNichols to death? Agents of this white supremacist/fascist state.
Who lynched 1000s of black people during Jim Crow? Christian fascists did that. No different than other religious fundamentalists like the Taliban.
Since day one this country has embraced genocide, slavery, indentured servitude, and horrific violence. Any notions of the People ruling is bullshit the rich tell everyone so that we think we matter.

Tell me again how protesting, like people did at Tesla dealerships doesn't work.
The stock has tanked. The company's profits have tanked. Musk is stammering in front of shareholders and ensuring them that he's going to focus on Tesla now and his "work" with DOGE is winding down.
This is Musk getting walked back big time and it's because people got out there and made noise. If people just accepted Musk's bullshit, does anything think he would be backpedalling?

I was a reporter in Vermont when he beat Shumlin. Shumlin wasn't great either though. Democrats across the country come up short. The party is shit, and the sooner people realize that the sooner we can think about what to do about it.

Someone mentioned this yesterday, but I want to call it out again specifically.
Everyone absolutely needs to get into the streets tomorrow if they can. You do NOT need to register to protest. Just show up. Don't put yourself on a list, is my guiding principal.
