    Because every aspect of our society has had capital infiltrate it.

    There is almost no interaction you will have with other people that will not involve paying a rent to someone, whether it is for the space you seek to have that interaction in or whether you are required to pay a consumption fee for social interaction (food/drinks/movies/whatever). These rents have driven people apart, driven people to complete alienation from interaction with one another. It has created inceldom among the young and guttural loneliness among the old.

    Most people in much of the west now do not know their neighbours and there are no communities. If 80 year old Mary two doors down drops dead she won't be found for 2 or 3 weeks.

    Every home has become the equivalent of an office cubicle, and people stay in their cubicles because there is literally no interaction they can have after exiting that does not involve some sort of rent. They stay in their cubicles and become atomised because there is expectation of rent literally everywhere outside of it.
