@kltigerm i was gonna point out that i think they meant late stage capitalism, where the gap between the rich and the poor is incredibly large and a good portion of the population is in poverty... but that''s also probably the case here, lmao.
But fr i think the intent was like 'modern society under late stage capitalism but without that much feudalism essentially dictates that a good skill to have is the ability to trick and deceive people well (business being the key example) while also having a much wider range of direct examples nd knowledge to contrast and learn from, so it makes it so that modern people have an overall advantage in this area' but holy shit is that long and im not sure 'late stage capitalism' is actually a phrase in korean
