| And it was implemented wrong, the other countries simply copied Joseph Stalin's concept of Marxism-Leninism . All of the "communist" countries that existed were just simply republics with some of the ideals of Karl Marx. |

| It wasn't even communism; it was called communism to appeal the idea to the poor, from which beforehand were undervalued in "elections". |

Irish potato famine ___ Actually, this was due to the mass poverty caused by the oppressive UK.
Industrial revolution ___ This benefitted the world to much to be declared bad. The industrial revolution made work so much easier, the amount of people who died of hard work must have reduced.
Imperialism ___ Imperialism is done by governments, not by capitalist companies. It wasn't capitalism to have companies like Hudson's Bay and East India because those were monopolies.
Transatlantic Slave Trade ___ Slavery is extremely anti-Capitalist.
American Revolution ___ What?
The Congo when it was ruled by King Leopold of Belgium ___ There are many factors in this, I need you tobe more specific.
World hunger ___ Because those hungry people in Zimbabwe are known for their ultra-Capitalist ways/sarcasm
Both world wars ___ This was caused by nationalism
Massacre of Native Americans by Europeans ___ This is oppressive governments, not capitalism. |

| Capitalism expresses individual freedom and the freedom to work harder and get higher up in importance consequentially. Slvaery forbids that. Capitalism allows you the freedom to succeed or to fail, slavery forces you to do neither. |

| Imperialism could also be done by a Communist country in order to gain more resourced. Your point is invalid. |

You don't think capitalism caused any deaths?
Irish potato famine
^Is this serious? You think because an infectious pest infested all of the potatoes in Ireland that the result of the deaths of those people who consumed them was because of capitalism? Can you be any more of a moron?
Industrial revolution
^The Industrial Revolution was marked by greed and hunger to become rich, that's not what capitalism essentially is. Greed and corruption are, unfortunately, common human characteristics and can't be blamed on capitalism.
Imperialism
^This is the silliest thing I've ever seen. The only imperialist nation that REALLY purposely suppressed its people was Belgium, and maybe The Netherlands if you count the east indies. But these countries were absolute monarchies and the will of their monarch was what was to be done. You don't hear Leopold talking about how much capitalism affected his rationalism in the Congo Free State.
Transatlantic Slave Trade
American Revolution
^Are you kidding me? This must be a joke. The American Revolution had literally nothing to do with Capitalism. At this point I'm hoping you're just trolling
The Congo when it was ruled by King Leopold of Belgium ^I've already stated that this was one of the only instances of imperialist aggression and it wasn't fueled by capitalism, but Belgium's absolute need to acquire resources to protect itself from other nations like Prussia, Austria, and even the Netherlands.
World hunger ^Yup. He's got to be trolling. No one can be this massive of a moron
Both world wars ^Really? Both world wars? You SURE there was no fascism in the second one? And the first one had nothing to do with economy, it was started by an assassination.
Massacre of Native Americans by Europeans ^Europeans weren't capitalist, they were blood-thirsty power-hungry money-obsessed conquerors enlisted by monarchs who also had no capitalistic influence. |

Industrial revolution ___ This benefitted the world to much to be declared bad. The industrial revolution made work so much easier, the amount of people who died _____ Many workers died, child labor, and it lead to imperialism ___ The industrial revolution brought our world more progress than anything. We would still be living in horrible conditions if not for it. Also, there was imperialism before the Industrial Revolution.
Imperialism is done by governments, not by capitalist companies. It wasn't capitalism to have companies like Hudson's Bay and East India because those were monopolies. _____ Imperialism is done to gain more resources and make a better a capitalist economy ___ Through governments. Capitalism believes in limited government, not oppressive governments which conquer people.
Slavery is extremely anti-Capitalist. _____ Capitalism = Wage Slavery ___ Wage slavery is a term, but is not slavery.
American Revolution ___ It was fought because the American bourgeois were threatened by the British bourgeois and they used propaganda to get other Americans to join their cause ___ That isn't capitalism.
The Congo when it was ruled by King Leopold of Belgium ___ King Leopold II basically conquered The Congo and forced the Congolese people to work and fuel the Belgian economy. Millions of Congolese people were killed. ___ Again, forced labour isn't capitalism.
World hunger ___ World hunger is caused by unequal distribution of food ___ A country like Zimbabwe used to work perfectly well and people were living fine until their socialist government took over.
Massacre of Native Americans by Europeans ___ All the factors leading to native american massacre was caused by cspitalism ___ It was done by governments, not capitalism. Also, even in capitalist societies, murdering people is illegal. |

No, it was caused by oppressive governments. ___
So you are saying there are no poor people in capitalism?
The industrial revolution brought our world more progress than anything. We would still be living in horrible conditions if not for it. Also, there was imperialism before the Industrial Revolution. ____ The industrial revolution lead to an increase in imperialism with the Scramble for Africa and the colonization of Asia and the Middle East. And many people died during The Industrial Revolution
Wage slavery is a term, but is not slavery __
Yes it is
That isn't capitalism. __ It was caused by capitalism
Again, forced labour isn't capitalism. __ It shows that capitalism leads to imperialism
A country like Zimbabwe used to work perfectly well and people were living fine until their socialist government took over. ___ No because it is ruled by a corrupt dictator who has been president for decades
It was done by governments, not capitalism. Also, even in capitalist societies, murdering people is illegal. ___ The Europeans took their land and resources to make their capitalist economy better. The more land and resources you have, the better you will succeed in capitalism
