Fascist and colonial states atrocities are widely documented in Wikipedia, countries that we consider capitalist probably too. I recently stumbled across Belgian atrocities in Congo reading Wikipedia by accident. It motivated me to read more about it in the future, maybe "Heart of darkness" (while not exactly historical, it still seems like a good critique. By the way is it a good novel?).

True.

But there does not seem to be an equivalent page for 'Mass killings in capitalist regimes'

Even if it is documented, does it not show that how it is organised currently has an imbalance, likely from Anti-communist propaganda, things like red scare etc?

So, cannoted be unbiased, right? My focus was on that. There is no unbiased source, but only ones which acknowledge biases and maybe try to ensure that the biases do not affect the quality of the source too much.

there's a mass anti-communist killings page, but that doesnt seem to explain how capitalism is anti-communism...

Might I recommend King Leopold's Ghost if you want a straight up history book of the Belgian Congo. No shade against Heart of Darkness, I think that's a worthwhile read; but reading KLG first will give you more context to appreciate HoD. Or maybe read it after, idk, up to you
