Yes that is what the point of Monopoly was.

Yes it is ironic that it was bought out by one of the largest toy companies in the world.

I still love the game. IDK why it feels like an abusive relationship.

The abuse comes from people who don't play by the rules. No property auctions, put tons of money on free parking that goes to whoever lands there, that kind of shit. This is what makes monopoly take hours.

And that's what we do IRL too, a bunch of people aren't playing by the rules, creating false hope through windfall lotteries, so it's taking longer to get to the part where we flip the board in frustration and destroy the bank.... Behead the mega rich and seize the means of production.
