There hasn't been any anti-capitalist revolutions in the last 150 year.

Maybe read a history book?

I seems to recall the US losing a war to communists in the 1970s for instance.

Marx didn't consider capitalists holding the world hostage with nuclear weapons

plenty of successful revolutions did occur though, just not in places under the control of the 'west'

very chauvinistic view to hold IMO
