Do you think people are not dying in Communist China for the same reasons? Industrial pollution, poor workplace safety, etc? That's not a failure of capitalism in itself.
Now, that's very different from getting a bullet to the head, or being sent to a forced labor camp to work until you die, because of your political beliefs. That's what we're talking about when we say "communism kills" - governments actively killing their own citizens due to ideology, by the tens of millions. Can you show me a capitalist country that does that?
Socialists/Communists ideology killed hundreds of millions (5x more than Nazism alone) in the name of their ideology. We fought Wars with them and they have explicit goals of tearing down Government to implant their own. I think we should ban everything Communist/Socialist too.
