It's an over simplification of Capitalism, The First 5,000 Years by David Graeber.

Clearly the 人🧵 making fun of gamers relearning capitalism for the first time, and crining at their ignorance is Procapitalist 100%. Almost like ragebaiting that we should all aspire to create artificial scarcity to starve people in African, Palestine, & Ukrainian so we get precious metals for my gaming needs.

in case you're in the spectrum, the 2nd paragraph is oozing with sarcasm.
