No, everyone doesn't hate capitalism.

but everyone hates the big companies and the rich people

its just that the right has been told that the left are the rich people (and then the left say that the neoliberals are the rich people, etc)

Not everyone. Capitalists love capitalism. It's the people who aren't capitalists but think they are because they love capitalism.

Sort of like how people think they are Christian's because they go to church believe in Jesus, but don't actually follow the teachings.

People think they are all sorts of things they are not and make themselves and or other miserable because of their fantasies.

I think capitalism is fine in principle, but like anything else that needs limits and rules that people are willing to enforce.
