I’ve seen people defend capitalism unironically by arguing that you can just go run off in the woods if you don’t like it, as if every square inch of land isn’t privately owned.
Except you can and will be kicked out of those too. At least the Great Smokey Mountain National Forest has maximum occupancy times for its campsites, and will haul you to jail if they catch you camping outside off their official sites.

This is only possible because you can run off into a national park, which is the exact opposite of capitalism.

I wouldn’t call a virtue signaling land theft technique antithetical to capitalism.
