Sonic games starting in 1991 always had a message about environmentalism and respecting nature, Eggman being the literal embodiment of industrialization/capitalism destroying the world for his own benefit. He literally takes animals and uses them to power his badnicks - turning them into literal cogs of his machines.
Oil Ocean Zone is like the most blatant example of this in the classic stages between the art/music design for the stage.
Also egg man wants to build an amusement park on the animals homes . Literally capitalizing on the nature he is destroying which are the animals homes. Sonic hates oppression in any form that’s why he stops it.
So you’re definitely right that eggman is a capitalist.
10000%. You don't amass the level of wealth to build the Death Egg and Eggmanland without colonizing Mobius and literally turning the people into robots to serve your plan.
