the blasé nature of the thread title makes it wild
It is a simple question people seem to have no answer to
Okay so it was no ones fault lmao
Capitalism obviously killed more because more countries were capitalist and it's been around a century longer.

Okay let’s say since 1917, who killed more

bruh millions of people died and your phrasing it like some music sxn thread ‘which songs better’
this debate makes no sense really
you cant put the blame of these killings on an economic system
every new political system comes with its mass murders but no one will attribute the deaths of the french or american revolution to capitalism
bruh millions of people died and your phrasing it like some music sxn thread ‘which songs better’
who made better music capitalism or socialism ?

Soviet Union Famines 6/10 pretty mid tbh
Okay let’s say since 1917, who killed more
And if people say "no that's just poverty" than I can say the same about whatever famines occured in China et cetera
That being said the question is not helpful
All of these death counts are cap honestly
Yeah the Communist one is greatly exaggerated and probably the Capitalist one too, both are propagated by bad faith actors who want to push their agenda
like the irish famine and the famine in india were so deadly because london refused to help in the name of liberalism and the free market but really they would have let all these people die no matter the economic system because "britain #1"

and the government clearly said "we wont help cause we're liberals and the market will regulate itself"
It seems capitalism causes more deaths through starvation, displacement, money-motivated murder and war, etc. year after year than communism did during the entirety of the USSR
Oh so it was just Nationalism
nationalism, oppression, imperialism, etc
the british always considered themselves the only people worthy of ruling the world so that mindset didnt help but every country puts themselves first and then people look back and say it was because they were communists/muslim/christian/etc just to win cheap points in debates

They also had laws preventing the irish buying food from elsewhere, hence why after the famine the corn laws were repealed
You still mostly right tho

not only that but they also promised food only to those who didnt own homes in hope that they would give up their houses to the brits in exchange for food
perfect case of government intervention disguised as laissez faire
