If only we could imagine what a truly capitalist country would look like in the future! Like, I don't know, we call this genra something like cyberpunk?

Hahaha I win. I have created a work of fiction and where you are bad and I am good.

But that also exists for my side, yk, Orwellian. Brave New World too.

Yes. But you know of a capitalist utopia? Because there are many communist utopia.

Usually media about utopias aren't very interesting. But yeah many people have imagined capitalist utopias.

On the contrary. Star trek is a well known utopia, and it's definitely not capitalist. You didn't mentioned a capitalist utopia still.

Much of Robert Heinlein's "Future History" series fits the bill

I can't think of any fictional utopias that are entirely utopian. I didn't know Star Trek was utopian. I can think of a lot of medias that condemn different forms of central planning. I can't think of any forms of media that condemn Georgism, or anarcho-socialism- does that mean those ideologies are good?
