Look up the Great Leap Forward. That should tell you all you need to know. Killed more people than the Holocaust

And more people died of famine during the British rule of India than the entirety of the PRC’s existence

Those are over a dozen separate instances in a multi century period of time. The Great Leap Forward lasted 4 years and killed tens of millions due to government incompetence and they were still exporting food during the whole thing!

That was because of an artificially manufactured famine to prevent Japanese invasion and not a result of capitalist economic policies

You aren’t ready to hear about what the British did to Ireland.

While that was driven partly by an extremely strict interpretation of a laissez faire economy, part of it was also anti-Irish prejudice

I’m not against a monarchy as long as it’s not totalitarian and has full human rights. The signing of the Magna Carta is one of my favorite historical events!

Some of it was absolutely anti-Irish prejudice, but the capitalistic system allowed them to perpetuate the stereotypes that allowed for the “famine” (genocide) to continue.

Bit combative and rude :/ I’m definitely open to 100% open discussion but no one is forcing you to talk 🤷‍♂️

You mistook matriarchy for monarchy. I don’t debate with those below my iq. Look it up. As a grown adult you should know, or be responsible for your own education.

That is true. That is a failure of capitalism. Capitalism definitely has its flaws, and when strictly interpreted (along with other issues) terrible things like that happen. But there are many many more people that have starved, been killed, or died some other way as a direct result from textbook communism rather than capitalism

I don’t agree with OP in the slightest, but that could’ve just been a misreading.
