We are not living in a capitalist dystopia. If you have an interesting thing you want to do but can't afford to do, head over to Kickstarter or Patreon and collect funding.

Thank capitalism later.

That is already dystopian not to mention people also use this to cover their medical bills. The gold fish doesn't know it's in a fish bowl.
How on earth is that dystopian?
To reply properly would warrant an essay about n order effects but long story short the fact that crowd funding exists in it's current state is a reflection of how broken our economic model is.
