Where are you based, and what are you watching?
I'll agree that there is too much emphasis on profit at many companies at the moment. Food delivery companies aren't making the world a better place, they're making it worse with the increase in single use packaging. They're taking an outsized amount of money, forcing the restaurants to give up some of their profit, and as a result, the some restaurants just can't continue.
But there are also companies that are doing great things, and there are non-profits also doing great things.
Walk around your local grocery store, and realize that much of what is there exists because of capitalism. Do you have a favorite product or service? It probably exists because of capitalism.
Does that mean that everything needs to be done to maximize profit? No, that's just pure greed, and a major issue in society today. But though capitalism can feed into greed, it doesn't have to be that way. Perhaps it's an opportunity for you to find a tribe with the same beliefs as you and find a better way to have an impact.
