^^Good point about capitalism, but are you thinking that I like capitalism?^^ One thing about that kill count though is that it's a bit harder to measure precisely, Nazism and communism have caused very clear cut and direct death tolls compared to capitalism, which is a more economic centric idea all in all and while it certainly alludes that some people and directions are more valuable, it's still not the same type of dogma. That said; capitalism is not a positive mark of the 20th and 21st century, and I hope you realize that I know that too. However; my initial statement was that communism was as bad as nazism, or technically, you brought up Hitler and a communist, so the impact of capitalism amidst these arguments is kind of irrelevant for the purpose of my previous comparison and overall stance on far left and far right.

It also depends on what kind of capitalism you're talking about. The type of capitalism most people criticize is crony capitalism or corporatism. I'm all for a free market, meritocratic capitalist system, but I also bemoan how much influence corporations have over the government.
