You didnt think capitalism would upend itself threw the one thing it rewards: greed?
I guess I knew academically that capitalism sews the seeds of its own destruction, but living through it is a different experience.
I think he's referring to the assumption most have had since the 80's when this started really taking off in a bad way, which was corpo-fascism as a dystopia. We were definitely heading in that direction, and still kinda are, but Trump just kneecapped pretty much every US corporation in one fell swoop, for absolutely zero gain.
