I also enjoy responding with the word "Capitalism" whenever someone wants an explanation for why something in the current world goes wrong.
But the question is nagging me more and more that if whatever system X it would be that currently reigns, the answer to the above question then would be X.
What in the current bad situation can we explicitly tie to capitalism and what part of our answering is just tautologically pointing to <current system>. The danger I see here is that this answer frees us from the need to understand what's actually the cause and effect.
I think the above is also why Lands Capital idea is appealing. If you elevate Capital to a god that was coming (from le future) all along, then indeed it seems natural that the system X that reigns just HAD to be capitalism.

I'd like to build an institution then. It cannot be _that_ hard. Let's do it online, an uni, a global reading club or sort. Not a job training circle, of course. Let's think out loud:
Why do people partake in the institution? Do we have to read Humboldt to design it? What's the incentives for that?

Learn Python or Javascript (takes 3 months or so) => find some job making €1500 after taxes => you can now live a basic life, working not even 40h per week. That's always an option. And you can work yourself from there to whereever you want.

If, instead, you're 18 and set your mind to making 4k a month, one ends up with people who regret their life, choosing their major on wage statistics. Unless you know someone up early, there's no need to become an A1 wage cuck - especially in Europe.

University is a state institution to give people an environment to grow themselves. Read some of W. Humboldt. Making a uni teach the same thing as a college or polytech is just capitalist influence and subverstion of said institution

You ask as if there ways any contradiction there.

>Person A says X
>Person B listens to person A and interprets X as Y
>Person B finds Y very appealing and relevant

I doesn't need poststructuralism to get that X, what A has MEANT to say, is irrelevant
