Brilliant point. Yes this is absolutely hypernormalization, but I would add that the only reason people can't seem to imagine anything else is because the establishment has rendered even entertaining the idea of moving past capitalism seem childish and ridiculous. There's always this air of Fukuyama's End of History, like we've tried everything else and yea capitalism isn't perfect but it's the only thing that sort of works. Any normie I talk to about changing the system have this attitude, it's been drummed into them. It's very tiresome, but it's definitely an obstacle to overcome if we do want to see real change. Thanks for the insightful comment!
