This applies to every single economic strategy and if anything capitalism is less faulty in this regard. My grandma used to pack scalding hot candy in wrappers 12 hours a day in soviet union and had nothing to her name, I'm sure she'd take tweaking mattress ad algorithms over that any time of the day.

It does not but it proves that this issue is not unique to capitalism or even caused by capitalism as OP implies
