It’s not about doing it or not doing it as an individual, it’s about the very concept being ridiculous. It’s almost like a magick ritual to people that buy into all the market bullshit.
Marx sometimes envisioned Capital as a Real God, in the sense that its will is served regardless of the beliefs or individual actions of those in Capitalism, and in that manner sustains “itself” and ensures “its” existence.
Of course, this was based in Materialism, it was always a metaphor.
