capitalism couldn't have come to, say, Latin America, without the Spanish and Portuguese colonial period

Oh come on we all KNOW that the Inca would have created industrial socialism by like 1750 if it wasn't for the damn Spanish

I mean, the Incan mita system was kind of a centralized public works socialism before the Spanish arrived. Maybe that's what you were getting at

It's sort of a niche history meme that the Inca could have made a kind of socialist state if they had more time. The idea goes back to a book from the 1930s
