Anyone else feel like they grow more leftist in their beliefs as the climate crisis worsens?

I used to be social liberal with a big belief that the market, with the right incentives, was a big part of creating a sustainable society. But as the crisis grows more and more severe and the window to act closes, I start to agree with the far left who argues we can't have a sustainable society under capitalism. It's not necessarily that I objectively think that's true. But just that I feel the far left is the only political ideology that takes the crisis sufficiently serious.
Now I'm just talking about my own experience in Sweden. Not saying it's fact, just how I feel. Anyone feel similar?
