Monopoly was originally called "The Landlord's Game" and it was invented by a woman in 1903.
It was meant to illustrate the dangers of unchecked capitalism.
Then it was stolen by a man and turned into the game we know today.
I mean, yeah, but also no. It was anti-land lord and was advocating Georgism and a land value tax. Georgism includes corporations as victims to land lord hoarding and doesn't criticize capitalism, per se.
One change for the better at a time
This is the boardgame version of the Steve Buscemi firefighter fact lol
Did you know that in that scene in that movie were the guy kicked that thing he actually broke his toe?
Aragorn really deflected that knife.
Did you know that before chewbaca was cast in star wars, he was a lab test consultant for Loreal
It's a fascinating story that's worth a deeper dive if you're interested.
