If you wanna see a web comic that actively calls out this kinda shit, I can’t recommend ‘This Isekai Maid is Starting a Union’ enough.
And if you wanna see the complete opposite, try subjecting yourself to Kuma Kuma Bear, the whole thing is just the author’s neoliberal power trip. It hasn’t gotten to the point of slavery (yet) but apparently child labor is fair game and God really loves you only if you accumulate wealth.

tbf it seems the character is introducing (an idealistic sanitized version of) early stage capitalism within a fantasy feudal society so it can be a progressive force by comparison but yeah, I get what you mean.
