No. Life is not a Marvel movie. Instead, the world is driven by material conditions, and the continuous effect these conditions have in guiding future conditions. The capitalists overtook the fuedal lords not because they were more moral, but because of the steam engine and the expansion in industrial production. The Statesian north didn't free the slaves of the south out of any moral reason, but to gain access to more wage laborers better fit for industrial production. Socialism is overtaking capitalism because imperialism is dying, and rates of profit are falling.

There's no idealist "good vs evil." If you'd like, I wrote an intro Marxist-Leninist reading guide that might help!

I wanna live in whatever world you're talking about. It sure feels to me like fascism is overtaking capitalism.
