it's not capitalism, it's social darwinism; conquering and abusing advantage by any means for any living advantage. This means if there is social power to be had, there will be desire to obtain it. (see all of history)
We may be doomed but we may also have enough capacity to give rise to intelligence that can govern us effectively and fix societal problems without monetary gain or advantage.
well, the justifications for why we 'aren't there yet' are ignorance, greed and fear.
Collectively we aren't there yet, but groups of like minded humans are now capable of much more than before and can yield tremendous results good and bad.
I can imagine lots of little paradises spawned from groups that achieve it.
but species wide, I dunno, maybe we just find each other too delicious to not eat, etc.
To me it just sounds llike someone's never hardened an enterprise and locked down windows machines effectively through cis alignment and some normal suite of tools, xdr, etc.
It's easy to pick on windows because of Microsoft decisions over the years, but it's also not impossible to lock it down effectively.
I'd like an Ai to draw a 4 panel comic of this.
