This isnt a unique capitalist problem.
This is power dynamics 101.
The capitalism version of this problem is not even the worst version
This is a super important point. As fucking brutal as capitalism is, any move backward will only make things worse. The only thing we can see with any clarity in the past is the church anyway (which was like a thousand year nightmare) since they took the evidence for everything else and won't let anyone see it.
We won’t to move forwards to a leftist society, not backwards to some right wing authoritarian shitheap.
Sure, so let's go beyond Capitalism into Socialism.
