This article is kangaroo court. There are plenty of corporations with shitty practices that have contributed to the destruction of nature, the deterioration of healthy society and individual mental health, and the marginalization of large swaths of human beings. But to say Capitalism has failed as a system is stupid, because its objective was only ever to obtain power for those who use it to do so. Whether that power is relative at the expense of others or absolute is up to the agent. It’s not a system of government, it’s an ideology.
