I’m guessing they mean, that under capitalism, most of your basic needs require money to access, so if you run out of money you have to sell your belongings in order to survive.
The goal of capitalism is to use exploitative systems so that you gain others’ money and they don’t gain yours.
The whole idea of investment is that you hire people to work for you and then they don’t get the full value of the work they do, and it goes to you. That’s how your employer makes money.
Same for landlords and basically all of the wealthy people in capitalism.
And when you aren’t making enough money, you start making things so expensive that they can’t afford homes, healthcare, food, and other necessities, like what’s happening now.
There’s no need for homelessness or poverty to exist. Those things are choices made by the wealthy.
can you explain this some? im not very knowledgeable about economic systems

You’re better off reading wikipedia than getting economics advice from someone who thinks capitalism involves the abolition of private property.
