Even on Reddit, I noticed the overall sentiment towards capitalism shifting over the last decade or so. Subs like a boring dystopia and late stage capitalism were popular and, though there would often be supporters of capitalism chiming in, their numbers have dwindled.
So while I do think you're right about there being a stronger bias here, that bias seems to be getting stronger everywhere.
Inequality is getting worse so it makes sense. I am pro capitalist myself but it needs checks and balances to make it work (ie monopoly busting, higher taxes, stronger social safety nets). Some of the checks have eroded, but they can be brought back, and I am waiting for evidence that a better system can sustainably exist.
Over time i have become convinced that most people are socialists at heart but have simply been indoctrinated to repress it.
I ask everyone around me why they won't vote for the socialist party and their reasoning either ends at a dismissive "you can't vote for socialists lmao, everyone knows that!", or if they're particularly politically minded they manage a whopping "But immigration policy!!"..
