@TerminalAutism The reason why capitalists like capitalism is because it can actually function without government interference, so when done right it can be kept decentralized.
Meanwhile, communism at the very root depends on a massive government structure to even be upheld in the first place, because without it people living under communism will go capitalist anyway.

In the end, every good movement has an evil underbelly with a massive ego they want to make everybody else serve.
There are good people in each movement, but the genuine ones are extremely rare in all of them, because most of them will care more about themselves, whether it be who has the most control under communism, who has the most money under capitalism, or who steals the most money under soycialism.

And humans instinctively cater to an ideology, so having an ideology-less society is going to be next to impossible.

Also, I doubt that people considered money to be a literal demon in the past, that would mean that literally everything is a literal demon, because literally everything can be used as a monetary system, whether it be golden coins, paper ballots, food grown in your own garden, teaching people a new skill, making websites for somebody else and/or hosting them, and so on.
