Capitalism is defined by centralized power. That's where the term "capitalism", coined by socialist French historian Louis Blanc comes from.

The idea is that Free Market Liberalism was supposed to bring Freedom, Egalitarianism, and Fraternity to the working class as an improvement to feudalism, but quickly people found out that the power dynamics of feudalism were recreated under liberalism, replace the land with capital: hence "capitalism". It's just feudalism 2.0.

If you want non-centralized power, you gotta look into leftist solutions such as anarcho-communism.

Liberalism depends on a state to enforce the concept of private property, and capitalism will result in centralization and monopoly in 10/10 cases in the absence of effective regulation (which then capitalists can manipulate too).
