X would be good but under capitalism is bad is an evergreen statement
Definitely. Some people just sometimes fail to realize the problem with something is capitalism, not the thing itself.
Even the much maligned “metaverse” could be good without capitalism trying to bleed it dry. VRChat is a decent proof of what it could be, and that’s still operating under capitalism, just not “major corporation trying to turn it into the next billion dollar industry” style capitalism.
