Pedantically, you are correct. But pragmatically, the people who write "capitalism is bad because of X" are usually interested in replacing it with leftism.

Your post would be more interesting if you pointed out one criteria where Marxism is better.
These alleged people aren't here though. This is the definition of strawman arguing. Sorry, but you need to engage with the actual positions of the people who you are actually responding to, not the positions of some other people you once met somewhere else but that remind you of us. That kind of discussion is a total waste of time.

This sounds like looking for a fight that has been fought thousands of times before rather than looking to learn something interesting though.
To me a more interesting question would be, if we steel man the public conception of the problems of capitalism, and we accept that the public conception of communism is problematic to implement to say the least, what remains? How can we move forward without endlessly getting stuck in the same tired argument about communism? How can intelligent people discuss solutions to these issues? What are our alternatives?
