It's slowness is it's most effective and insidious trait. It ingrains itself into a society, with promises of "this is healthy if we just let it be". Which is clearly not the case.

If most positives from it involve it having to be shackled entirely by regulation to constrain its most definable traits, it is not a good thing. It is just exploitable.

I'd still rather have that than a system that immediately becomes a dictatorship. I just don't think there is a perfect system if it's going to be run by dumb selfish humans. AI could maybe take a crack at it though, idk

So don't support dictators :)

Yet you support capitalism, which is a dictatorship of capital over people.
