So apparently Nazi Germany, Fascist Italy, Imperial Japan, the Ottoman Empire and all particpating countries of both world wars were all captialist countries that at the same time fought against the capitalist system and the main proponents of capitalism, go figure. I'm almost suprised that the Soviet Union wasn't included as a "capitalist" country. It's rather ironic that Maoists out of all people trying to tell others how evil capitalism is because how many people they claim it killed.
There is some amazing display of ignorance in those links, such as portraying the Arab Slave Trade as capitalism's fault, when capitalism didn't even exist yet, instead they were fedual and mercantillist socities. Capitalism appeared as a response to the latter one.
All these body counts for socialism and captialism serve no real purpose but to fuel internet arguments. If you think socialism is the way to go, all power to you, you can believe in whatever you want but you can do better than the links you just posted.

You might want to give mine another read too. But if you're not going to address my post then don't bother replying.
