As time goes by, communism is becoming increasingly attractive. Like, real communism. Not the bullshit under Stalin or in China.

Capitalism is working as intended, and it's destroying us.

Capitalism is a funnel -> those with capital extract additional capital from those without. I say this as a small business owner, just barely turning towards "winning" the game if capitalism after decades on the other side. It's a resource snowball, and only a few can win.

Ideally, there is regulation, scaling taxes and redistribution. That part seems more broken the further along you get.

Of course, cause a part of the snowballed resources are used to break those. From one angle you could see the resource snowball (capital accumulation) as a self-reproducing phenomenon that drives the system into unstoppable feedback loops till they lead to various breaking points.
