Don’t get me wrong I’m all for a better system but it’s not that simple.
Like communism sounds nice, but if you don’t do it on a global scale you still have the problem of other countries trying to influence elections or referendums, wars would still be started etc.
Capitalism with a lot or guard rails seems like the most realistic option. Maybe a mix of systems could work, where people that work for a company automatically become part owner or something.
A system where the government has full control over everything is going to lead to authoritarianism.
Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.
We can probably make some positive changes with better democratic systems. For example no 2 party system, but a combination of coalitions and ranked voting.
I’m not an expert in any way, but just saying capitalism bad, without any real alternative isn’t going to do anything.

We have a real alternative. Check which comm yore in and the rules in the sidebar
I knew what community this was, but what real alternative do you suggest? How is anarchy going to actually work?
Hmm I just found this https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/peter-gelderloos-anarchy-works
I’ll give it a read tomorrow as my kids will wake me up in 6 hours…
