It really says a lot about Wikipedia that it has an article for that but not an equivalent for capitalism caused disasters. Like say https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bhopal_disaster.

Or the toxic wastes that lead to the creation of the epa in America

Yep, how you frame and present information has a dramatic impact on how it is interpreted, and in liberal, western-dominated spheres communism is demonized while the excesses of capitalism are minimized.

People are too happy to overlook systematic issues with capitalism just because they think they'll be one of the lucky ones on top getting to make the inhumane decisions, all in the name of getting another dollar

This is gradually fading as capitalism crumbles.
