Under capitalism you are not a human being, you are a resource, at best a machine that's useful for some time but becomes obsolete and undesired once it outlives its usefulness and potential to be exploited. Under capitalism you are a slave that's forced to live the life of 3 Cs: **conform, consume, compete**. Or, as [Encyclopedia dramatica](dramatica.md) puts it: work, buy, consume, die.

**Who invented capitalism?** Well, it largely developed on its own, society is just responsible for not stopping it. Capitalism as seen today has mostly evolved from the tradition of small [trade](trade.md), [slavery](work.md), markets, [competition](competition.md), [evil](evil.md), [war](war.md) and abuse due to societal hierarchy (e.g. peasants by noblemen, poor by rich etc.), combined with technological progress of [industrial revolution](industrial_revolution.md) (18th. - 19th century) which allowed mass production and mass abuse of workers, as well as the information revolution (20th - 21th century) which allowed mass surveillance, unlimited [corporate](corporation.md) control, acceleration of bullshit business and extreme mass [brainwashing](marketing.md), reaching [capitalist singularity](capitalist_singularity.md). [Adam Smith](adam_smith.md) (18th century), a mentally retarded egoist who tried to normalize and promote self-interest and torture of others for self-benefit, is often called the **"father of capitalism"** (which is about of the same honor as being called the [father of holocaust](hitler.md)) -- this man is to be also largely credited for the future extermination of all [life](life.md).
