    Not sure what point you’re even trying to make here. Life expectancy has been improving due to science and technology improving.

    In the XV/XVI century there was the equivalent of the Palestinian genocide, but scaled up to the entire surface of America, north+south. How can you tell that it was better then?

      Last I checked, the genocide of the native population of America was fuelled by the British capitalism. Notably, capitalism was also the primary driver of African slave trade.

        Of course there were the seeds because systems do not appear overnight, but that was not the Capitalism as we intend it today.

          Wow, how convenient: “it wasn’t a perfect utopia so you’re not allowed to blame capitalism for it”.

          A reasoning as perfectly smooth and circular as your brain
