Capitalism is based on slavery and genocide

Feudalism is based on slavery and genocide. Capitalism is based on industrial development yielding a compounding rate of return.

It is fucked, nothing good about it

Its a historical stage of economic development every society ultimately passes through. Again, go back and read Das Kapital. Go pick up a copy of Piketty's Capitalism in the 21st Century. Get a book on Lenin's NEP or Dengism or the modernization of Castro's Cuba. Even the most staunch leftist cannot escape the materialist need to industrialize.
