The weird thing about capitalism is that it gets stronger when you make media railing against it. This is also Mark Fisher’s point in the cult classic capitalism realism: Wall E performs anti-capitalism for us safely in a box so we don’t have to. https://thecreativeindependent.com/people/adam-curtis-on-the-dangers-of-self-expression/

It’s also tempting to say this is because capitalism is itself amoral. It actually does have one core value: the growth imperative. “Things getting bigger is better”.
