That's capitalisation. Capitalism is a philosophical view that the universe is solely based on randomness

That's casualism. Capitalism is the practice of eating the flesh of your own kind

That's cannibalism. Capitalism was a practice done in the First Brazilian Republic that is also known as "rule of the colonels".

That's carnivorism. Capitalism is when an organism has tissue made of different genetic composition

That's a cataclysm. Capitalism is a criminal act conducted with computers and resulting in violence, destruction, or death of targets in an effort to scare people and coerce a government to alter it's policies.

That's cyberterrorism. Capitalism describes a chain of events where an initial action or event triggers a series of subsequent events, each building upon the previous, leading to a larger, often unforeseen, outcome.

That's a cascade. Capitalism represents an aesthetic and intellectual approach that values reason, order, and balance, drawing inspiration from the enduring legacy of ancient Greece and Rome.

that's classicism. capitalism is something that is askew, awry, or crooked.
