Is capitalism a form of conditioning or a cage?

Capitalism is not a cage but a garden where freedom and creativity can blossom, while the real confines are the rigid 'isms' that dictate our beliefs and actions.

— Osho
According to Osho, capitalism is not an ideology or conditioning at all but a natural growth that creates space for freedom and choice. Unlike communism's single-track imposition - 'you can choose any color, provided it's black' - capitalism leaves room for multidimensional creativity and individual flowering. The real cages are 'isms' that dictate belief and behavior; freedom allows consciousness and talent to unfold.

No; capitalism, to him, is an open playground of choices, while the real cage is any ideology that makes everyone follow one rule.
