There hasn’t been any anti-capitalist revolutions in the last 150 year.

Maybe read a history book?

I seems to recall the US losing a war to communists in the 1970s for instance.

Marx sent a letter to Lincoln, and Lincoln’s staff responded via Ambassador Adams. It’s a really interesting moment in history that’s been buried by US Red Scare ideology.

from wiki on Adams:

Part of his duties included corresponding with British civilians, including Karl Marx and the International Workingmen’s Association.[7] Adams and his son, Henry Adams, who served as his private secretary

Marx didn’t consider capitalists holding the world hostage with nuclear weapons

plenty of successful revolutions did occur though, just not in places under the control of the ‘west’

very chauvinistic view to hold IMO
