Description

Don’t you just love the irony of how shows go out of their way to show how rich people are evil, and then proceed to be nothing more than toy commercials?

Yeah, the entertainment industry, especially children media can be f*cked up, teaching kids to be libertarians when the society isn’t like that.
 
And my, we had anti-communist episodes like S5 Ep1-2.
 
This OP would enjoy living under Starlight Glimmer’s rules. Such a generalization of capitalism is bad as well.

Capitalists are greedy, and socialists are envious. The difference is that capitalists have to persuade you to buy their products (necessities aside), whereas socialism will simply force you to comply.
 
Capitalists can only turn a profit if they can convince people to give them more money than their efforts cost, so why not create an incentive for these “greedy capitalists” to do what you want? They’ll do anything to persuade you, so make it clear what you’re after.
 
On the other hand, what are you going to do when the government decides it no longer needs to listen to its people? That’s what happened with the USSR and China.

Looking too deep. It’s not a big conspiracy showing all rich people as evil, it just so happens that greed is a common motivator for selfish behaviour. Most of the major companies today got where they are by being financially aggressive and at the expense of others.

That would mean that people are evil, given that Capitalism functions as an economic mirror of the collective conscious.

It ain’t capitalism’s fault that so many people suck so bad at it that they’re incapable of exercising it in a sustainable manner; there’s more than enough prosperity to go around that everyone could be fat and happy, it’s just the greedy shitsacks who ruin it for everyone else because they’re too stupid to keep from strangling the Golden Goose.

It’s not all black and white, OP. Capitalism is not evil, People are. More of often than not it’s poor people who pretend Rich people are evil as a comfort mechanism.
