My head canon is that there isn’t truly a capitalism on the island and that Tom Nook is doing all this to help you, the weird human who needs to accumulate value, to acclimate to the town. Ultimately, selling fruit just guarantees people around you have food and in return sometimes they give you stuff they find or make.
I reject this notion. The entire idea requires accepting that humanity needs to be subjugated to survive. This is what authoritarians believe and the fact that everyone just accepts it because a movie presents the concept with cool actions sequences is very disappointing.
The sequels are trash. Terrible weak storytelling that was greenlit because capitalist wanted to milk the success of the first film.
The problems of humanity cannot be solved with emotions, good or bad. Even if the reason is fated lovers. That’s the lizard brain being tickled. We suppressed ourselves with this nonsense. At least we get warm fuzzies while we do it, right? Totally worth all the suffering.

That makes sense. I mean, how suspicious would you be if he just gave you everything for free?
As soon as the humans find out you’re doing a communism or whatever, you risk “liberation” so… best just to play up the business aspects. 😭
Like the Paradise Matrix

The first movie was ground breaking and had actual cultural impact. The sequels were action slop.
