Oh, here we go with the "little black book of communism" bullshit.

Gods, you guys are so predictable.

60million dead people is bullshit hey? That's 10x what Hitler did in the holocaust. Being predictable doesn't change the facts that your supporting and pushing an ideology responsible for 60million dead people. That's literally 10times as bad as supporting Nazism if we are going by human lives taken.

We currently produce enough food to feed everyone and the international system is capitalist. Does every death from starvation or malnutrition count as a tick against capitalism for you? What about deaths from diabetes in the US? If not, you should look more into how the numbers you’re citing were generated and see if you still want to spread them. If so, you might find that capitalism has killed more than “communism.”

Also, just as a nitpick: 6 million Jews died in the holocaust. 13 million people died altogether (not including war casualties).

I know you feel like we’re on opposite sides here, but I really do just want you to research this a little more, no need to come back afterwards if you don’t want to.
