    It’s not capitalism, it would happen under any system. It’s caused by psychotic power hungry narcissists willing to do anything to stay in control…you know, the type of people willing to do anything to obtain power in the first place. It is the bane of society, only the people who are unfit to have the power are the ones who seek it.

      You know, the type of people who end up with the most power under capitalism.

          Capitalism directly rewards this kind of behaviour. Maybe it would still be a problem in other systems, but capitalism very much exarcabates it by design.
