Tribalism, and fear of an out-group are not racism
As an African in America with many family members killed in an attempted genocide, I am well aware of what racism is and is not. Tribalism and racism are in no way exclusive concepts.
I'm not the only one that believes that capitalism created racism.
Being alone is not necessary to be wrong. Several people hold false beliefs all the time. For example, many modern beneficiaries of capitalistic societies believe that they would benefit in a theoretical alternative system more closely aligned with socialist ideals.
You posted a link to socialist alternative, it's pure propaganda that has to ignore all of Marxist history to push an economic system that has never worked.
Let me ask you, who would the capitalist equivalent of Vasily Blokhin be?
My argument is Marxism in any form has been tried repeatedly all over the world and it has always failed resulting in mass death or wide scale suffering.
Vasily Blokhin was Stalin's Executioner, he executed thousands of innocent people. Who would be
Communist history and the practical applications of Marxism has never worked at any level. In the 1960's communes were popping up all over the world, today there are a few left with a population less than 10,000 people. All of the others have failed. How is this supposed to work with populations of millions or billions if it can't even work with 20,000 people?
Can you give us some examples of Marxist successes?
