thats simply delusional. take a good look at literally anywhere outside your 1st world bubble. capitalism sponsored the biggest transfer of wealth from poor countries to rich ones and a handful of genocides. good things happen despite it, not because of it.
hell if a natural health emergency can put it to this knees that easily maybe we should rethink how we are running the worlds econony. things changed in the past and will continue to do so.
it easy to say poverty has declined when your definition of poverty still has motherfuckers struggling, and your definition of a healthy economy is unprecedented inequality.
im not wasting my time here any further.
Poverty has objectively declined. We must work to preserve capitalism against the attacks waged on it by those who want to bring us back to the ages of widespread poverty
we must destroy capitalism before it literally destroys the planet bro. thats ignoring all the death it has purposefully caused and will still cause.
but i digress, im not arguing with a zealot.
We must destroy those who seek to destroy us. Which is what destroying capitalism does by proxy
