Right, so the fundamental issue is that we are living in a globalized world, which reduces any room for nuance and imposes an uniform and homogenized culture, top-down policy-making, and a totalitarian approach by the ruling class.

Thing is, this would still be our reality regardless of the economic system. Globalism would be a problem even if the Soviet Union had won the cold war.

We would still be subjected to uniform culture, top-down policy-making and totalitarianism.

The people would still be acting by their own personal interests.

People would still favor short term benefits over long term prosperity.

So, again: what does Capitalism has to do with it?
