I am stating the truth as I see it, that's all. It's not some ideological screed against capitalism, it is literally just me describing reality. Reality does have sucky parts and I try to see them as clearly as I see the good parts. Some people call it "ranting", i just call it seeing clearly. It doesn't mean I have a solution to the problem I described, or that I don't engage with the real world. It literally just means I do so while making an attempt to see things as clearly and truthfully as possible. I don't want to get into the tired old debate of "capitalism good or capitalism bad", it is simply too narrow a lens to view everything through. In my view, the problem isn't even about capitalism, its just a manifestation of some of the uglier sides of human nature and competition for social status in the face of actual resource constraints in the world that mean we have to compete for who gets how many resources. Of course the root problems exist no matter what economic system we use.
