That capitalism is not the cause of most societal grief. Pathological self preservation is a fundamental human problem. It’s the reason we’re okay with seeing hordes of homeless people, or with killing people to resolve geopolitical issues. Greed can optimize any system to work for itself, people who are or will be adept at such optimization would thrive under any kind of socioeconomic or cultural system, including extremely leftist systems. Just spit ballin’ tho, haven’t thought about it much tbh.
my dude, most people aren't okay with those things... that's the reason shelters and aid programs exist, and why people protest in the street. just because the current geopolitical system is fine with those things, doesn't mean people are. the people ruling those systems are a very, very small percentage of the population.
