Capitalism has not really raised people from extreme poverty. Most probably it has just pushed more and more people into extreme poverty over hundreds of years, in addition to making life miserable in general for so many.
The only time things have gotten better for regular people within capitalism is when workers organize and when people participate in anti-capitalist and anti-colonialist action.

It's #poverty: many people have no money for a new #laptop or desktop. Their old #computers still work fine, but can't run the latest versions of #Windows.
We backup their data, install #LinuxMint, restore their data, install some extra programs, show them around and they're good to go.
Interestingly no one had problems making the switch so far. All quiet on the support front.
