You keep making one ignorant statement after another while doubling down on being a smug pseudointellectual. All economic systems are backed by their government, and all governments have a monopoly on violence to maintain order. That's not a revelation of anything but your ignorance. All societies in history with a socialist system have the same exact dynamic. This doesn't change the fact that monarchy and capitalism aren't comparable because they're fundamentally different concepts. If you're going to double down again on such a painfully false notion, then this conversation is not worth continuing.
Monarchy and Capitlism are different concepts but I am not the one who offered a definition of Capitalism so broad that it would include Monarchy. It was my mistake to get distracted by yet another inaccuracy.
