Recognize the Nuances of Exploitation

Exploitation must be understood in context, as equating historical peasant life with modern capitalist existence oversimplifies the complexities of societal progress. While both may be labeled as 'exploited,' substantial advances in quality of life and social structures indicate significant divergence. Acknowledging a positive trajectory in human development since the 1300s highlights the evolution of economic systems, which have typically included a ruling and exploited class dynamic. Furthermore, recognizing that freedom is inherently constrained by social and natural realities emphasizes the complexity of human existence, revealing that repression, in various forms, has always been part of the human experience.
