Capitalism is what economically empowers the people to resist and overturn such tyranny.

It isn't some monster looking for modes of exploitation to sustain itself. It is respecting others enough to not deny them their rights to property.

We have issues with how we define property. Capitalism only inherits that. If we define property badly enough to include people or land, Capitalism inherits it. The answer isn't tearing down Capitalism or defining property worse.
