"You appear to wish that capitalism had some sort of ambition or purpose..." And you appear to assume capitalism is an end unto itself. It isn't.
Capitalism is a means to an end, think of capitalism as "one ring to rule them all" and you will be on the right track. How you are missing the connection between the accumulation of wealth by a select few and the evil that walks among us is rather beyond me :)
Capitalism is an end to itself - any understanding has to come from Marx's analysis
It is religion which seeks to give purpose to life - you use the word 'evil' , and you quote the faux religiosity of that sentimental saxon fabulist from Oxford
From the point of view of religion materialism is deficient, certainly - but look around you, I assume you live in the west, for every act or manifestation of religious sentiment you will find thousands of materialist
You may be animated by a sense of religion, but, in your country, you are in a small minority
God love you, speaking of religion :) It appears you are wedded to the idea that all those that accumulate massive wealth do it for the sake of wealth alone. You can hold to that premise as long as you like, it will not change the truth of the matter.
There are people who are very wealthy who wish to reorder the world to their own liking. They are evil and they are well along with their plans. And when I speak of evil , I speak of a fact not a religion. They state their plans clearly, you chose to ignore them at your peril. Peace.
Your’s is a religious world view – do not be surprised if you can not understand materialism and how it works – preferring to call it ‘evil’ – the fact of evil only exists in a religious worldview
You can not understand the minds and the motives of the materialists, nor may you grasp the structure of capitalism, because it is another world – yet it dominates your world, in the west I mean
To attribute ‘end games’ to materialism is to attempt to impose a religious teleology on one which has no such qualms or goals
Not only is this doomed to failure it has already failed – you live in a society dominated by materialism
I live in a world dominated by neither materialism nor 'religion' in your sense of the word - but another way
If you wish to practice your religion in a society still dominated by a religion you have many choices – Russia for one
