Kashyap Kompella introduces the term 'capitollism' to describe a new phase of capitalism where economic life is structured around access rather than opportunity. In this system, individuals find themselves paying continuously to remain part of the economy, leading to a sense of stagnation despite being employed. This shift is characterized by large corporations controlling essential infrastructure, creating an environment where mobility declines and compliance replaces ambition. Kompella argues that the pressures of late-stage capitalism result in a societal structure resembling an oppressive caste system, where the few benefit significantly while the majority settle for less. He draws parallels with Hindu cosmology's Kali Yuga, suggesting that this phase reflects a time of collapse and inversion, where economic growth overshadows community and dignity. The ongoing challenges of climate change and resource depletion further complicate the future of this system, raising critical questions about its sustainability and the well-being of society.
