It really doesn’t look like USA is going to be around much longer. In fact, a model US themselves produced is predicting collapse and a likely civil war in the near future. The model identifies factors like the pandemic and a loss of a war as major drivers.
I expect that extreme weather due to climate change will be what ultimately does US in. A river in Colorado that around 40 million people rely on is already drying up, and California is running out of fresh water as well. Meanwhile, heatwaves this year resulted in massive crop loss. Then there were megafires, hurricanes, and other extreme weather events like Texas cold snap. All of this is straining failing infrastructure, production of goods, and supply chains to the breaking point. As a result there are already shortages of essential items.
We’ll see more of such events and of greater intensity each and every year going forward, and there’s little chance US would be able to react to these problems in a coordinated fashion. All it will take is a single extreme weather event that will kill crops to cause a famine. And historically that tends to be the breaking point. People can put up with a lot, but there’s really nothing left to lose when you’re starving to death.
So, I don’t think capitalists are going to win per se, but horrible things are likely in store for US in the near future due to capitalist failures.
unfortunately capitalism will never be fully eradicated, the usa will continue to murder bipoc till the end of time
we can still hope more and more countries adopt communism, cuba and venezuela are doing great so i expect many countries to follow soon enough

we are going to have a civil war and, unfortunately, capitalism will likely win. capitalists would rather nuke their own country then let progress win

Right. Capitalism or any form of society is evolved to be so. If a theory predicts it fails, it’d better predict a stronger replacement.
