How in the world are wars capitalism
they were committed by the US purely to stop leftist groups rising to power
basic rule for the list: without capitalist policy these deaths would not have occured
Well that’s a bit broad
yeah its mainly a response to that claim that "socialism killed millions"
in reality both have killed millions
socialism slightly less
using deaths as a metric proves capitalism is the less successful one
Socialism leaves it people in worse situations though
the soviets were doing fine until they went capitalist
Living standards fell
Poverty increased
Economy in general collapsed
It was fragile
suicide rates and alcoholism went through the roof
Also half of these are like famines and I just really don’t see how a famine is a result of capitalism
the only famines included are ones related to capitalism
Ireland due to the British policy increasing bread prices to make more money and refusing help
Bengal because the British demanded all food grown went to them
so the people starved
again, to make a profit
same at orissa
I think those are the only famines there
I don’t know enough about those events to make a certain opinion on them
But the colonization in Africa was definitely for military power over the Mediterranean
colonization was mainly done to make more profit
access to new markets, new goods
more profit
there may have been other reasons depending on the strategic area but the core reason for colonialism was to make more profit
Hi I'm new
No it wasn't lol
It was gain docks, and bases across the medi
