Capitalism is fundamentally anti- human

Capitalism is fundamentally anti-human.  When all your human relationships are reduced to financial transactions then you have no real friends.   You are alone and have no real connections to anyone or anything.  Nobody cares if you are dead or alive.

For example, your connection to the people you work with is a shared mutual need to earn money.  If you did not share the same employer, you most likely would have never met.  Once you stop working for the same employer, you will rarely see each other ever again. These people may be nice, thoughtful, and friendly, but they are not your real friends. You can genuinely like and admire these people, but they are not real friends.   If you are in real trouble, they will not help you in any appreciable way.   If you need to be rescued, they will not help you.  You spend the majority of your working day with people that you have no real friendship, or significant connection with, at all.
