One could probably do a publishable research paper on the relationship between high energy internet memes and capitalism.

Hell I was really close to addressing internet memes in relation to the discussion about efficiency created by automation. It was along the lines of how internet memes probably emerge from sufficient efficiency, that productive resources are put into them, that they provide value, and that it's probably in part by their free-ness that they provide as much value as they do.

I think capitalism is a close parallel to the parasitic nature of the embryo in utero; driving relentlessly toward blood and nutrients through the uterine wall.

What works, works.

I've an immunity to HIGH ENERGY memes, though.

I don't like being led by the feelings.

Could it be that that describes humans well and that capitalism functions as a way to protect from this base human nature?

Well, I've got a lot more examples.

I think Capitalism is humanising the nature of competitive life.
