Ryuu to Yuusha to Haitatsunin - Vol. 2 Ch. 12 - The Sword, the Armor, and the Prosperous Society

Tax knights are now officially my favorite fantasy organisation.

 

[MonsieurQuack]

Kinda want to roll up a Tax Knight for a Pathfinder game...

 

[Stalkerman]

What so they’re a group of soldiers that are so deep in bureaucracy that they can’t make a move like some sort of machine that required specific simple inputs or something?

 

[bingel919]

That sounds like communism society.

 

[seirio]

@bingel919 Which is why it'll never work

 

[bingel919]

@seirio Don't be so pessimistic my friend.

 

[seirio]

@bingel919 No need for pessimism, just need to look at history!

 

[bingel919]

@seirio Communism only exists like more than 100 years, not much to look at. At this age capitalism was still trading slaves and colonized the world. So I say give it time.

 

[seirio]

@bingel919 Kinda difficult for communism to continue existing since it failed catastrophically every single time anyones tried to implement it that mostly everyone but middle-upper class white people seem to want it and ignore all of its continued faults and the first hand accounts of survivors today who'd REALLY rather not have it anywhere else in the world. Need I remind you of the Pol Pot's Killing Fields, Holodmir, Tiananman, the entirety of Castro's regime, and so on?

 

[bingel919]

@seirio It sounds like it was the leader's fault, not the economy and social system, but I'm no expert so I will drop the subject and enjoy the manga.

"having an authoritarian system to make sure people are ready to live free of the state" now that's something I've heard so many times
