Critique and Capitalism Are Popular

The rise in popularity of anti capitalist, istopian fictions is understandable. After all, the fossil fuel industry that's been ruling the world economy for over a hundred years seems poised to topple. It's more difficult to fathom why such critiques have not taken hold in the actual, supposedly factual news. Reality doesn't sell unless it's fictionalized. The owners of news don't like hearing the truth about themselves and the nation and world they own stock in. They're much more comfortable with alternative truth, where everything old is new again,. Everything black is white, every day is night and every pantasy is real.
