*Go easy on me guys its my first time having a go at this kind of thing.*

Basically Capitalist existentialism is the idea that the dangerous and often self destructive cycle of democracy and capitalism can over time be harnessed as freedom and liberty. In short.

When applying this to human philosophy it is nearly identical in the processes in order to use meaning and achieve a result, though a democratic way of election of inside the mind by dispelling out all other candidates, electing a single result by logic and possibility. As with all philosophical idea's this is a dangerous thing to do on any other scale and receiving self destructive criticism from outside influences who have their own philosophical idea's to counteract this one. A good example of this is the theory of evolution, which at first started off once announced as a very dangerous and disputed idea in a strict religious society but has developed to be a very broad spectrum which does indeed offer up a lot of freedom after many years of debate and testing.

Only through a coordinated decision by a majority is a philosophical idea adopted and took seriously to be believed or claimed to have some meaning other than fantastical thought akin similar to democracy.

It's an evolutionary artifact. Kind of like the coccyx. Or male nipples. You get the idea. It doesn't necessarily have a purpose.

And here I was thinking that Capitalist Existentialism meant making money off of interpreting the experiences of the individual for them.

Yeah, I was hoping this was going to go down that rabbit hole, instead of whatever the OP was trying to say.
