Oh I don't know. Maybe refer to the fact that 98% of all human history has occured without capitalism, where as capitalism has managed to nearly make the world unlivable in just over a couple hundred years while also convincing people that is is the only solution to the problems it has caused.
You're saying you want to return to ages of divine right of kings? Well great news, we have dictatorships today like North Korea and China so we already know living under them fucking sucks and you can abandon that idea.
Oh now I see, you are one of those that think capitalism is a system of government. May want to learn the difference.
Capitalism is a means of production and distribution of goods on basis of supply, demand, and availability of capital (currency) which foundationally employs the use of private ownership.
Every recognized nation currently on earth today utilizes some level of capitalism.
