CAPITALISM can not exist without CAPITAL. Please present your definition of CAPITAL.

I was on a 24 hour ban. Capital = chattel and property. I'm surprised you didn't know the association of Roman Law and the modern legal hodge podge besides the obvious etymological relation.

BM: ➽ I was on a 24 hour ban.
I have several reasons why I call Zuckerturd's platform Fecalbook. This censorship crap is one of them. Sorry for not being patient.
BM: ➽ Capital = chattel and property.
How does one invest, per your definition, chattel and property, and for what purpose?

Stop attempting to blow smoke up my ass. Assuming as to what the fuck you are addressing, I REPEAT:
That text defines: Capitis diminutio maxima; Capitis diminutio media; and; Capitis diminutio minima.
It has NOTHING to do with CAPITALISM. And your bullshit about etymology.... Well it's bullshit.
capitalism (n.)
1854, "condition of having capital;" from capital (n.1) + -ism. The meaning "political/economic system which encourages capitalists" is recorded from 1872 and originally was used disparagingly by socialists. The meaning "concentration of capital in the hands of a few; the power or influence of large capital" is from 1877.
"Capital" may be most briefly described as wealth producing more wealth; and "capitalism" as the system directing that process. This latter term came into general use during the second half of the 19th century as a word chiefly signifying the world-wide modern system of organizing production and trade by private enterprise free to seek profit and fortune by employing for wages the mass of human labour. There is no satisfactory definition of the term, though nothing is more evident than the thing. [J.L. Garvin, "Capitalism" in Encyclopaedia Britannica, 1929]

THE ETYMOLOGY FALLACY
+ An etymological fallacy is committed when an argument makes a claim about the present meaning of a word based exclusively on that word's etymology and holds a word's historical meaning to be its sole valid meaning and that its present-day meaning is completely invalid. This can be true in some cases, but should never be held as an absolute.
+ The etymological fallacy can also be a fallacy itself when it is used to dismiss the word origins as irrelevant to the current use of the word and its true meaning. This is due to the fact that the study of etymology is all about gaining clarity of the words meaning which must be all encompassing of both its origins and current use. Only through discernment can one understand if the definition is accurate in reality and truth. Definition are all about gaining CLARITY on meaning and Truth. We can change definitions for the purpose of being more accurate to reality but also we can do the opposite and change them to be less accurate to reality which is very dangerous. It is important to understand that the control of language through methods like obfuscation has had a devastating effect on the human ability to think and communicate with clear understanding. The control of how we communicate is a powerful weapon to obscure Truth and create individuals that have no bearing on the ideas that they wish to express and the ideas which they are programed to believe. Weaponizing Miscommunication through the control of definitions leads to epistemological breakdown and only serves to further the Dark Occult agenda to divide us from Truth, Reality and each other.
+ This is also connected to the fallacy fallacy which states that since somebody uses a fallacy that their entire argument completely invalidated.
