    They are not listed masssacres of capitalism now are they. These massacres are viewed as an aberration belonging to a specific nation rather than the economic system behind that nation. These are presented as the “bad policy” of “bad individuals” not a natural expression of capitalism.

      In case the image doesn’t load: “So I’m assuming you’ve got similar articles for mass killings under capitalists, or fascists, or colonial states, right?”

      First list is of colonial massacre, second list has more colonial massacre. It’s stupid easy to find the list of japanese massacres during ww2.

      And, in case you didn’t check, the image in my first post is a bottom list of “Major armed conflicts in American labor union history”, which, dunno, sounds like a lot of killings happening under a capitalist regime.

        the second panel shows a direct link between mass killings and communism and none of your links draws an explicit link to capitalism
