Can't have a view that matters when you are hungry, stressed, are left with like 1 hour a day to yourself, and with constant other random threats to your existence you get to manage.

The system is working as designed, ppl forget how much work such a system needs to sustain itself actually.

The problem is that Capitalism, and by extension Imperialism, is unsustainable and constantly decaying.

Yes.

And one of the constant maintenance being performed to sustain it is convincing us how sustainable and overall the best thing ever possible it is - how at the same time it has by default only one single goal, a goal of which by default the only end-game of a properly working system is a single complete concentration of power, yet it is widely "believed" how much that is in everyones best interest.
