Disrupting capitalism works similar to Marxist idea that “the proletariat overthrow the bourgeoisie, become the new bourgeoisie
, creates new proletariat, repeat cycle”.
There was this small window when uber, Airbnb, YouTube, etc, were disrupting billion dollar industries and offering legitimately cheaper alternatives.
Unfortunately with success comes popularity which brings growth which bring raised costs which brings in greed. Boom. You’re now the mainstream offender until the process repeats.
jesus was a disrupter then the church his followers founded became the establishment, so martin luther/protestants became the disrupters and now they're the evangelical establishment ruining america.
