Turns out “capitalist democracy” is an oxymoron, because every business is a plutocracy/oligarchy, that rewards psychopathy because morality is less profitable, who inevitably end up using their capital to corrupt everything in their favor (politicians, regulators, media, military, the entire population, etc).
It’s actually kind of mentally ill that everyone just accepts democracy can coexist alongside systemic structural inequality, but I guess religion already proves that humans are just talking apes who’ll believe anything.

We democratized our politics, but failed to democratize our workplaces and economies.
And it turns out, it is impossible to have democratized politics unless the economy is also democratized.
