It wouldn’t stop the system from being capitalist, but it would reduce the power they have over the non-ownership class.

With a UBI people would be better able to say no to their boss and move to another place for another job (if wanted).

I know it’s not the actual definition but, to me, capitalism is literally “rule by capital”. Every move we can make that reduces the leverage of the wealthy is progress away from capitalism. Universal single payer healthcare and a significant UBI would be powerful in that regard.
