We know Capitalism has failed every time, that's why we want to abolish it.
"We" being an extremely small subset of the population.
"We" being the majority of the people on the site you're on, especially the instance.
Exactly so an extremely small subset of the population. Which is why capitalism is not being abolished and no one cares about criticism of capitalism but people gets annoyed when people start trying to implement other systems.
Capitalism won't be overthrown by just convincing people of better. Capitalism is overthrown when material conditions decline due to issues like the Tendency for the Rate of Profit to Fall.
