This is capitalist society in a nutshell though, isn’t it. “I don’t care if anyone else gets to see it, as long as I can still see it.”

Well yeah, but that doesn’t make it ok (nor logical or natural).

Oh, absolutely. But it shows that nothing will change unless capitalism in its current self-destructive form is destroyed.

No argument there.

E: no, actually I’d leave out the “in its current self-destructive form” out, there is no form of capitalism that doesn’t lead to where we are now, and eventually in to full blown fascism. Otherwise yeah, abolish the crap out of it.
