It’s not the economic system that’s led to these improvements but new methods and technology. People invented stuff before capitalism. The compounding effect of technological advancement makes idiots think that the economic system used recently is obviously the cause of the increasing pace of advancement but that’s strictly correlation not causation.

even globalism has a lot more to do with technology than any dumb ideology of economics

Neoclassical Economics and global trade and finance have been intricately linked with technological advances of the last 120 years, is all I'm saying.

Globalization, Economics, Finance, and Technology are all part of the same system of human exploitation and environmental spoilage.

It's a moot argument anyway because so what. Even if true and capitalism was the best thing for us and it is all at the feet of the free market well great it did its job and now is clearly hindering more than it is helping and we should realize that instead of worshiping ideological bullshit or saying that even attempts to criticize/reform anything are somehow incredibly dangerous. An economy should serve society not the other way around.
