This I see as just wrong, and it's ok for us to disagree here. Any anti-capitalist discussion would have to include Marx (not Marxism necessarily) because his criticisms and predictions have been proved true, but he is an anti-capitalist.
The renaissance period wasn't brought about by priests criticising themselves and giving away their power, it was the introduction of the free thought movement and outside criticisms.
Self criticism from (government decided) pro capitalist groups would be automatic and co-opted capitalist propaganda.
