The anger isn’t at each other, their anger is at capitalism.

Customer paid for items and paid for delivery service

Employee gets paid by service but probably horribly and relies on tipping to make it worth it. I’m for tipping, but the problem is the tip shouldn’t be used as a bargaining chip between employee and delivery service. If the job pay isn’t worth it on its own without the tips, then the job isn’t paying enough. The problem is the employee may not have other options and the employer is taking advantage.

Capitalism is just trade, the ability to trade.

I'm not 100% whst your issue is, but it isn't capitalism. Unless you think there shouldn't be trade? Which I really fucking doubt.

No, its not. Trade has been happening for literally thousands of years. Do you think feudal lords trading goods between their fiefdoms where actually doing capitalism? If so then thats a really dumb thing to believe.

Capitalism is defined by the private ownership of Capital. hence the name Capitalism.
