No, but the ultra wealthy having the wealthy necessary to bribe politicians, buy all our media, and push endless disinformation with zero accountability are all a direct result of capitalism.
Publically owner companies, like the USPS, are extremely transparent with how they spend money and they are held to far higher ethical standards than private companies are.
I don’t think plastic waste is specific to capitalism.

Yeah social democracy is good but it doesn’t make plastic waste disappear, neither would fascism, it’s nonsequitur.
Plastic is cheap. It would be as cheap for a communism as it is a capitalism.
Indeed, the 1st and 3rd worst offenders for plastic per capita are administrative regions of China (Macau and Hong Kong) https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/plastic-pollution-by-country
They’re also a capitalism, though, so yeah.
