I'd say the blue checkmarks are a better example. They're a stamp of approval from the global corporate hegemony. You can even have yours taken away for expressing unapproved thought.

I don't think NFTs inherently are, but how they are used by the get-rich-quick schemes definitely is.

You can't not participate in capitalism at all because it's required in some capacity if you would like to use any of the benefits of living in a society. You have to live somewhere and eat something, and you either pay money for that, or do everything yourself, using most of your waking time just to survive, like a caveman.

But you're free to act like NFTs don't exist without that having any impact on your day-to-day life.
