Is This a Turning Point?
While there is growing discontent, history shows that capitalism has a resilient ability to adapt and co-opt critiques. For instance, sustainable development, corporate social responsibility, and green capitalism are all ways it has evolved to absorb and neutralize challenges without fundamentally changing.

Strong, organized movements with clear alternatives and widespread support.
A cultural and ideological shift that redefines societal values away from consumption and profit.
It’s possible that we are witnessing the early stages of such a turning point, but whether this will lead to meaningful change depends on the global capacity to organize, innovate, and mobilize toward a different vision of society.
