All the problems in the world can be traced back to capitalism

All of humanity's greatest achievements (visiting the moon, halving world poverty rates, drastically reducing inter-state wars, vaccines, improved standards of living, etc.) happened after Capitalism supplanted monarchical feudalism and merchantilism as the primary economic system.

Torture should be used as a criminal punishment.

In some clear-cut cases, egregious wrongdoing deserves comparable punishment. Also harsher punishments deter crime (both reasons are why we punish rape worse than shoplifting).

True private property did not exist until property rights were respected, which is only around the time of the Magna Carta for Western civilization. Until then the king, lords, or bandits could come and steal your stuff without repercussion.
