Capitalism has killed over 100 million people directly over the last 100 years.

Every year ~10 million people starve to death or die of easily preventable disease. These deaths are directly attributable to capitalism, as the global system of economics and distribution. It simply isn’t profitable to the capitalists to prevent these deaths.

So your number is way short. Every ten years capitalism kills 100 million just from starvation and disease.
