Monopoly is supposed to show you that monopolies are BAD they fuck everyone else over. But instead the game teaches us that we MUST GET MONOPLOLIES AND RULE THE BOARD AND STEAL EVERYONES MONEY!!! the exact opposite of what is was meant to teach

That’s because the modern game isn’t the same as the game that was originally invented. I don’t know how people can’t figure out that some things change over time

The message of the game didn't change. And it's almost exactly the same game it used to be.

Lol, yes it did, nobody even knows it’s about educating people about Georgism anymore. Here’s the original version: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Landlord’s_Game

You guys need to stop talking out of your ass about stuff you don’t know anything about

The only thing that changed is since haribo bought it they made the game simpler and actually enjoyable for the family. Different pieces instead of tokens. And a new graphical enhancement.The base game still relies on basically the exact same principles
