Not true, I also enjoy stuff not created by workers, like mountains, forests or the sea.

On the other hand, I hate a lot of stuff capitalism created.

Read Marx, everyone, even if you don't think you need to. Actually, especially if you don't think you need to.

Is capitalism in the room with you right now?

Are... are you saying capitalism doesn't exist?

I'm typing this on a device that I carry around with me all day, who's entire purpose is to collect as much data as possible and deliver it back to the company I bought it from. All in order to influence me to buy more of their stuff. In a way, yeah capitalism is always in the room with me. It kinda sucks.

Take the FOSS pill, if you can! Go for privacy-focused setups and reduce addictive elements, the mental clarity is huge.
