Minecraft is under feudalism

Villagers live under the dictatorship of the Golem (DotG). Later, they turn into the dictatorship of the Steve (DotS). The Steve is the feudal lord. For STEVE owns all the land in the village. Villagers aren't slaves because Minecraft leashes don't work on them. But this only masks class exploitation under STEVE's regime. When Steve is in his highest stage of feudalism, he starts farming villagers for iron. He puts all the villagers in 1 sq block space for the rest of their lives.

The dictatorship of the Steve ends when HIS 2 week Minecraft phase ends, and Steve goes back IRL modern capitalism.

And the steve supposedly provides protection from zombies... who only spawn when the steve is there... hmmm

Zombies are right-wing. Golems are antifa

It isn't a dictator of the Golem, the Golem is the enforcement class, in this essay I will

Saying that Minecraft villages are under the dictatorship of the golem is stupid. The Iron Golem and the villagers share the same class interests.

minecraft is settler colonialist fantasy. a wide world, mostly empty, with the few people in it easily subjugated and exploited.

it also has the individualist brainworms. a single plucky individual building up an entire civilization single-handedly.

There is no civilization in Minecraft

And make pottery... Yeah. But can you call it society if you've only known hermitcraft?

civilization is treats and nothing but the treats, society doesnt exist, wake up sheeple!

If society isn't real, then how come we live in one? Checkmate jonkler deniers!

Villagers aren’t slaves because Minecraft leashes don’t work on them.

I'm really glad to have read this sentence today.

Me putting villagers into a boat and pulling the boat with a leash: "it's not slavery it's unpaid labor"
