This is on the same level of logic as saying more people die breathing air than they do drowning. On the largest scale imaginable, and I cannot stress this enough, correlation does not equal causation. Capitalism has become the first world norm and thus the most populous countries have adopted it, and likewise, the most people have died under it because of how widespread it is, compared to Communism which rarely ever lasts and sees the deaths of millions by starvation and drastic increases in poverty over the span of mere years, often followed by irreversible damage to the country that attempted it, like North Korea. The main takeaway from this is that "People die from the conditions set by Communism" and "Everyone who dies while in a capitalist country"are two completely different things that should not be equated to each other.

If it was people who died because of the government in a capitalist country, or people who died because of the process of competing in a capitalist market it'd be equivalent, but alas it is not.
