Sure, but it's not just capital right? Especially in the internet era if you somehow removed all capital influence you just shift it to the range of people between celebrities and confidence men. The fundamental problem is that people let others unduly influence 'their' worldview.

Seems even if you remove the influence of capital, you're just kicking the can rather than actually solving the problem.

Maybe, but I think capital must be the main driver. In an age when attention is scarce, paying for it must have a huge influence.
