No, this is communism, not capitalism.

Capitalism did not fail. You're thinking of communism.

Nah, the picture is clearly labelled capitalism. Capitalism has existed and utterly failed, fucking up enormous swathes of humanity in its wake. No economic system has done more damage, and condemned so many hundreds upon hundreds of millions of people to absolute poverty in all of history.

That is an ignorant, though understandable mistake.
Communism has never existed thus far in history, however capitalism has. Though I still don't know how the picture ties into either.

Again, communism has existed in history, and it has failed. Numerous times. Because human beings are a higher life form. Communism does not work because people like to own things.

Communism hasn't existed in history. The Soviet Union, China, North Korea etc. aren't communist.

China is becoming less communist, but for the most part, the examples you listed are, in fact, communist.

Only by self declaration they are. If you claim and act like Hitler, are you Hitler? Or, if you act like George Bush does that make you George Bush? No. Claiming you are something doesn't mean it's what you actually are.

Who claims to be Hitler?

This is not up for discussion. I have a better understanding of this topic than you do. Just because you don't want to acknowledge communism's failures doesn't mean that they do not exist.

It's an analogy, but there are people who consider themselves to be the reincarnation of Hitler.

"This is not up for discussion." I disagree.

" I have a better understanding of this topic than you do. Just because you don't want to acknowledge communism's failures doesn't mean that they do not exist." Apparently you don't know much about communism. Communism is the abolishment of a government and giving the power to the working class. Any government that claims to be communist but is a communist-dictatorship or a dictatorship, or even has a government, then it isn't an actual communist state.
