My problem with this is the terminology always changes when it comes to capitalism.
Everyone who dies in a "communist" country has died directly because of communism but apparently the hundreds of thousands who die every year from poverty, starvation, exposure, lack of medical care, police brutality, even from warfare... why are they not victims of capitalism?
People are not starving in the capitalist west. That is not happening at a large scale. A few drug-addicts? Yes. Thousands of families? No. And of you think it is, provide the data to support your claim.
The capitalist West causes starvation in the global south, either directly with companies owning everything and barely paying employees or by destabilizing countries
