(not disagreeing) And due to capitalism, they and the exploited will always exist, and have the power they have. If the billionaires of today didn't exist, some other people would be in their place, and nothing would have changed. Capitalism is the root.

    No matter wether capitalism or something else. People want power. Thise who have more will do anything to keep it. People fight back. reform Or social collapse. Repeat.

    It's a cycle that will repeat as long as their is something to opress.

    Im not saying we should stop fighting. But even if we win it will happen again.

    Yeah, the focus needs to be on specific issues where we can take immediate action to improve peoples' lives. Trying to abstract things out to be about systems and ideologies just promotes complacency and paralysis. Every system can and will be corrupted. We need to identify the specific mechanisms through which that corruption is currently occurring and attack as many of them as we can every time an opportunity to do so presents itself. Wanking about some grand revolution that will solve everything everywhere just promotes inaction since that revolution will never come.
