How far back does it go? Arabs, Romans, Greeks, Persians, Babylonians, Assyrians, Akkadians?
It probably goes back to the Neolithic Revolution, although the first cities (Çatalhöyük for instance) appear to have been classless. Expropriation comes in many different flavors (different modes of production), but it's always present whenever class society is present. "The first slavery was the slavery of women." It probably begins with the invention of writing, which was itself invented to keep track of all the stuff belonging to the Sumerian ruling class.
Wrong, it was invented to rant about crooked copper merchants
These copper merchants...folks, these copper merchants are not nice people. They're crooked liars. They're so crooked that we had to invent writing just so we could warn everyone about these not very nice people. They say we're in a Neolithic era, but all I see is hard working people being cheated when they go to buy copper. Nothing new there. Joe Biden loves these crooked people. Copper Joe loves them. He loves them!
when the first parasite desided that someone elses active labour belongs to him and formulated a narrative for that..
Let's go with Sargon.
