Others are free to make inflammatory ideological and political points, as long as they conform to liberalism.

It’s your website, but history will not judge you kindly.

It's an objective historical fact.

The overwhelming majority of ethical and moral progression in human history coincided with the extension of private property rights to more and more of the general population, and retracted when those rights were rescinded.

This occurred both because of the recognition of humanity that goes along with granting these rights, and the technological progressions enabled by allowing opportunity and innovation to occur in larger swaths of the population rather than an aristocratic hyperminority.

You're just describing class struggle and industry, not capitalism specifically.

Capitalism was once revolutionary against feudalism, as the bourgeoisie replaced the nobility as the ruling class. But that hasn't been the case for centuries.
