Capitalism has no higher power, it is entirely a human invention and only exists under the power of continuous communal human action. Humans built capitalism and it is fully within human power to corrupt that system, only a fool would blindly trust an empty abstraction to somehow protect itself from its creators. Laissez-faire capitalism isn't supposed to mean nobody is policing the cheaters, it just means that government stooges can't be trusted not to side with the cheaters and the community should do it themselves.
When the majority no longer even understand the abstraction they are participating in, is when that abstraction can be turned so that the majority willingly participate in their own abuse. When BlackRock is 6 steps removed from the system that mutilated and sterilized their kids, people really struggle to aim their retribution where it's most deserved.
