gollark: Depending on how you define it, it's not a hugely old thing.
gollark: Also, if prejudice is... somehow caused by capitalism... how do you explain racism and whatnot before modern capitalism was a thing?
gollark: Yes, and it happens that "make money" lines up conveniently with "let people sit", so you don't just have to hope that someone will come along and give you a nicer chair.
gollark: And secondly, if there's a group of people who will preferentially buy shorter chairs for themselves, then there's an incentive for someone to come along and make Shorter Chairs Co or something.
gollark: Different chairs for everybody? Because, well, firstly, that sounds impractical.
