No, it can't be! It was all egalitarian, peaceful, and idyllic before
we were expelled from Eden, I mean before capitalism ruined
everything. No hierarchy, class, patriarchy, tedium, alienation, or
disease. People sat around the campfire, trading stories, strumming
ur-banjos, and contemplating the meaning of life. Please don't
interrupt this lovely fantasy with historical material.
