    Egoist mentality : “I’m scared of others, I need a car that looks like a tank so that at least I’m safe, even it means other are less so.”

    Arguably capitalism is fostering “optimizations” but unfortunately it does so entirely amorally. When the only metric is profit then everything else becomes a negative externality to ignore.

    TL;DR: yep.
