Varoufakis is a commie so the book doesn’t make a case for “ethical capitalism”, no. Not sure if he is a Marxist, but I’m pretty sure he has called for a revolution many times.
Edit: I think his point is not so much that we’re at a completely different system, but that the current mutation of capitalism is so far removed from what people think of as capitalism that we need new language to talk about it.

Feudalism is a rigid class structure determined by blood inheritance. That’s not really what we have. A noble who looses their money would still have the privileges and rights granted by their title - they would still be part of the ruling class. If a member of our ruling class were to loose their money, loose their source of passive income, they’d very quickly no longer be part of the ruling class.

It’s just the death throes of Imperialism, Capitalism taken to its furthest and most grotesque limits.
Happy cake day!
I think I understand capitalism less now because of this image
