Your viewing things as if the only two options are capitalism & (marxist) socialism. It’s a false dichotomy.

Both are evil, & alternative systems were proposed and implemented in the early 20th century such as in Italy & Germany that absolutely did function better than either, to the point where the communist & capitalist world superpowers had to team up to destroy this small group of Fascist nations & almost lost.

Germany & Italy at their height, never had the same industrial or GDP capacity as the U.S. In fact, both Germany and the Soviet Union combined still fall behind the USA in productivity.

So yes, we are still arbitrarily stuck with the two systems. It's unlikely to end until either robots enter mass production, or eugenics makes everyone high IQ and removes our biological desire to "want more stuff".

Your brain is stuck in liberal materialist thinking, yes the superpowers that spanned continents produced more stuff & their oligarchs were richer, so what? Would you honestly really choose the liberal west as a place to live over a society like what Germany and Italy had in the 1930’s? What kind of nationalist are you?

Fascist Italy had 20 years before war destroyed them, Germany even less than that, they did great things with what time they had though.

So yes, we are still arbitrarily stuck with the two systems.

You have to be really unimaginative or historically blind to believe this. Systems change & societies collapse all the time. And sorry but this will happen to the capitalist west too, probably soon. I don’t know what will replace it but as a nationalist I can hope.

What kind of nationalist are you?

The USA was a White ethnostate in the 1940s, and as the war showed, they were still unmatched technically.

Again, I think people are misdirecting their hate. The system of Capitalism has always worked as intended. But that doesn't mean no bad actors exists who chose to subvert this.

Similarly, the soldiers who fought under the U.S banner would have been ashamed or appalled that their sacrifices were being used to push globohomo and other forms of race mixing. The easier solution? America never enters the war at all and stays isolationist.
