I think the issue is everyone has their own personal definition of what capitalism is. To some it just means free markets. For people really unaware, it just means the existence of money ( I think that's what that physicist YouTuber thought it was). The ambiguity is convenient for the exploiters because if you don't understand the system, you can't change it.
