    Humans invented and seem to naturally gravitate to capitalism, it’s not some cosmic evil imposed on them. They’re still a virus.

      Do we naturally gravitate towards capitalism? I’d say we gravitate towards communism on family to tribal scales. Seems like capitalism or its precursor takes hold after one group conquers another and exploitation begins.

        Closer, Capitalism is just another development in class society that arose alongside industrialization. Tribal communism is different from post-Socialist communism, in that tribes are small units and Communism would be one massive unit. Just like tribal communism, feudalism, and socialism, capitalism arises alongside material development and will fade with it as well, through revolution.
