That's like saying

"Nazism is a system and just that, it has no moral, therefore cannot be evil."

"The Transatlantic slave trade is a system and just that, it has no moral, therefore cannot be evil."

What are you talking about? Systems are created by people; they don't just pop into existence.

You said it yourself the systems are created by people, the people can be evil. They are the root of the evil aka anyone upholding capitalism because they profit even tho they know exactly how bad it is for the world and people, just like the people creating fascism the fascist are the root of evil.
