I view nazi germany and china quite a bit different from real capitalist societies. Simply having a stock market doesn’t mean the markets are free to function as they please.
I also tend to disagree with canada and usa being genocidial at this point in time. For sure they did horrific things, but comparing usa to nazi germany or current day china is delusional, as the US country’s government is not actively killing a part of their own population.
What rubs me the wrong way in these conversations is mentioning capitalism as a system that commits the genocide. Both germany and china are/were state driven, and as such the markets didn’t really have anything to do with the actions. Instead the genocide is driven by the government that is/was authoritarian, and as such the markets aren’t driving the killing.
The one country I agree with being a free market and genocidial is Israel.

are u saying that government intervention in the “free market” = communism?
as a reminder, communism is a stateless, classless, and moneyless society.
also, state intervention in the market does not make a country no longer capitalist, they all have that.
i was just giving u a list of genocidal capitalist countries, i wasnt comparing them with each other.
many countries are built on genocide thanks to colonialism. canada is one of them, and it has not changed its course
