I learned that “capitalism” is an economic system, not a system of government.

Consider for 3 seconds that what you "learned" about the world is a product of the system that produced it

Capitalism is a system of government, and in capitalist countries, they teach their citizens that capitalism is at at odds with the state and not working in conjunction with it
