I bet per capita, "communism" was worse. Of course it wasn't pure communism but nothing is ever going to be pure because people are dicks.

It's a good thing there were no genocides, slave grades, and constant wars before capitalism. Pheww

Which wikipedia article? Check the references of that article. That's your answer.

Weird how you can just look at the source and references in a wikipedia article to do your own research while articles like this are just "trust me bro it's all a conspiracy"

In reality you live in a junk drawer cozy. Just support the junk drawer and everything will probably be OK.

How many civilian contractors were hired by CERN and others and how many bidders did they take before deciding which to take. Did scientists volunteer or were they paid by grants. Where did the government funding come from? Taxes from citizen's income. How much of the technology used in these projects was built on tech invented by public/private companies?

Everything that happened before capitalism happened at an extremely slow pace. We might have smart phones without capitalism and therefore the industrial revolution... but how long? Centuries? Another millenia?

Yes capitalism did not make all scientific discoveries but it did use them to make more discoveries at a vastly faster rate.

Russia's industrial revolution did not happen in a bubble. They did not invent the technology that allowed the industrial revolution, they took advantage of others inventions to take a very inefficient rout to the revolution. They have enormous resources and a vast population... yet it was much smaller capitalist nations that advanced much faster.
