      Communists have been responsible for the greatest eradications of poverty in history, massive gains in quality of life metrics, and working class control. Communists currently run the world’s largest economy, which itself is making dramatic improvements year over year. Capitalism is a pure failure that has committed countless genocides.

      I agree, I despise the communists and fascist. They placed corruption on a new level and murdered everyone who disagreed.

        Corruption was far higher in pre-socialist countries, and in countries that pivoted from socialism. It wasn’t the communists that murdered everyone who disagreed, but the capitalists and imperialists.

            Cool, anecdotes don’t amount for much. Nazi Germany was far more corrupt and slaughtered millions of people, and modern Germany is an imperialist country that supports the genocide of Palestine more than most European countries do.

            And that proves that corruption wasn’t higher in pre-socialist countries… How?

        It must be so easy being an anti communist: you can just say whatever vague and baseless bullshit you like and expect people to take you seriously
