So how about the death toll of countries under the strain of capitalism?

Sure capitalism has blood on its hands. But pointing to capitalist deaths doesn’t erase the catastrophic death tolls under communist regimes. It's not a competition of “which ideology killed more,” it’s about which system actually functions without collapsing or requiring authoritarian control.

You can control capitalism with regulations. Communism historically only survives through force and collapses when markets are removed.
