          Okay you’re just a dumb tankie.

          Read about Holdomor. Read about starvation under Mao in the 60s. Or in North Korea in the 90s. You should also look into Russian gulag slave camps. And into avg quality of life of Ussr VS western cityzens.

          TLDR you bought into communist cult.

            You are not attacking communism, you are talking against totalitarian regimes. People were starving in the great depression too. People today work two jobs just to stay alive, i feel you are not one of them.

              It just happens that communist regimes commited all these atrocities. Pure accident.

              People were starving in the great depression

              Great depression happened once and had the span of 10 years. Communism has history of massive poverty and starvation over the entire 20th century. For the entirety except few periods of economic distress, the wealth difference between communist and capitalist states is unquestionable. Communism doesn’t work. It doesn’t work to the point of former USSR puppet states voting it away in democratic elections… Once the fall of USSR allowed untampered elections that is.

                There was a great depression, and many many small depressions.

                At least capitalism gave us door dash and only fans. So people can survive.

                Btw atrocities are not exclusive for communism. But i guess you don’t count all the humans killed by colonial and capitalist regimes. And don’t get me started on raping the environment. For somebody’s fifth yacht.

                  And don’t get me started on raping the environment

                  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Environmental_issues_in_Russia

                  Many of the issues have been attributed to policies that were made during the early Soviet Union, at a time when many officials felt that pollution control was an unnecessary hindrance to economic development and industrialization

                  By the 1990s, 40% of Russia’s territory began demonstrating symptoms of significant ecological stress, largely due to a diverse number of environmental issues, including deforestation, energy irresponsibility, pollution, and nuclear waste.[2] According to Russia’s Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment, Russia is currently warming 2.5 times faster than the rest of the globe

                    And Russia somehow had it’s own ecosystem and is not connected with the global climate.

                    You get a hard-on hating communism like some who hate blacks or muslims, you were conditioned into that. Rich western white people tend to do that.
