I suppose Capitalism can be different and produce for us something better than what we have now but it is part of what has brought us to this end game.

I see capitalism as the one innocent here: it simply means economics. If you redistribute wealth to the masses and adopt diversity, the market rewards degeneracy.

If we were to really go with free market & free market only, and all charity was seen as the endeavors of private individuals and religious groups, it would absolutely change everything.
And I see how that is completely desirable, and maybe even the potentially most actionable route for people on the far right whose visions would become more easy to achieve through this. But it is the most actionable not because it is likely to happen, but because it is the only thing conceivable that could happen that could also be pushed for in the current environment we live in, I think.

I like free markets, but I think we need really strong culture too.
