Why do you hate capitalism?You know the device you are typing on was created by capitalism?

advances in technology and the industrial revolution aren't at all dependent on kikes owning everything oligarchically and enslaving everyone. in fact most infrastructure, research and development and other leaps of technological capacities come from state funding, capitalism is literally irrelevant.

"other leaps of technological capacities come from state funding, capitalism is literally irrelevant."

Such as?

Literally everything. The ratio of philanthropy and private research compared to public is ridiculous. Who put down all networking infrastructure? Who put down all the railways and roads? Who developed most medicine? Sanitation and plumbing? The list goes on.

The vast majority of research and infrastructure development isn't even close to breaking even let alone being profitable so private initiatives are extremely rare. Companies just use what states have developed to make profit afterwards. Anyone even passingly familiar with first amendment activism and social media uses this as arguments against social media censorship because they benefit from infrastructure as well as public funding to exist.

What did the Soviet Union innovate in?

What sort of question is that? The Soviet Union was one of two superpowers - it innovated in every conceivable sphere of life. This is entirely besides the point anyway, public funding has played the same role in the history of every major power - France, Britain, the USA, imperial Russia, you name it. The construction of roads, railroads, research, public administration, the establishment of legal and economic condition suitable for private business, all of this and more depends on the state. Google, Tesla, all these behemoths of "private" industry received extensive federal funding which allowed them to grow into the immense, grotesque mega corporations that we have today.

They destroyed the US in the space race, were huge in sports (they won basically all of the olympics from the 50s-92 where they competed as the EUN), developed a bunch of military stuff especially nuclear technology, they funded a bunch of sciences and chess and rapidly industrialised their entire economy. They did a bunch of stuff.
