You conflate Capitalism (developed during the Renaissance[1]) with Colonialism (around since the Iron Age[2]). How is point no 4 related to Capitalism? Where is the willing buyer/willing seller for point 6? Is your argument that there would be no work related deaths under communism? Who is forcing people to work in the cotton industry?

So yeah, come up with more examples.
