I think you have a point when you say that capitalism and nazism have similar root causes.
With the other things: whatever. I still rather live in a capitalist system than in a nazi-system and i interpret the meme in a way that it wants to play down the magnitude of evilness of nazism by doubting that its far worse than capitalism.
Not even similar root causes, but are the same system. Nazism functions as a self-defense mechanism for Capitalism. This meme isn't downplaying anything, but showing that the differences between the two are not as large as pretended by supporters of Capitalism.
In capitalism thats not in decay, the extermination happens in the colonies, so the real question is would you rather live in a capitalist colony or a nazi state. I'd hate both equally, I guess.
But if you live in a colonialist state you benefit from colonialism which is essentially large scale nazism
