Really?

Black book of communism.

@Dr.Cosby Why you make excuses for a mass-murdering Ideology?

And Stalin was a dictator so that statement doesn't make sense

There's nothing about communism that explicitly ties it to the abuse of power by a single dictator

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

You even mentioned Stalin before

Yes?

It just tends to go that way I guess

Because you said communism has killed people

Ignoring that it's the dictatorial and authoritative aspects that were likely responsible

And ignoring pre-communist history full of warmongering dictators lol

Dictatorships are more effective than democracy.

I'm not arguing for communism here. But I'm arguing that fascism is on a different plane of stupid.

Again I'll make the case of Rwanda.

@Dr.Cosby Oh so your saying the exact same thing as the commies say, that since True Communism was never tried that it hasn't killed people - but the pursuit of trying to implement it killed 20% of Russia's native populus and made Russia a shitty place to live in because communist blocks are terribly ineffective,

I still don't understand how fascism is stupid, if I don't believe in freedom and concentrate on improvement.

Yeah I know communism is a religion, i got told this by them before.

Every country you see today has been founded on blood

In history**

Ftfy

@Deleted User yep but communism most of all, in places like China were the death count from Mao is so high that we don't know how many of his people were murdered by it.

Thankfully we live in the least violent time in human history

Somehow

thankfully

I wish I wasn't born in this era

But in like 2040

The actual ideologies behind communism do not pose the hideous moral shortcomings that go along with fascism.

Just to see how it'd be

Comparing the two is daft.

Fascism also had an actual ideology

Giovanni Gentile

2040 will be weird. Large swathes of people won't have a job

There's nothing they will be able to do

The philosphical sense of it was much different from how it was practiced

@Dr.Cosby Yeah okay, I don't agree, because both facism and communism have roots in socialism & both are inspired by Marx's works

plus communism came first so there's that

Im sire all sorts of nice things were inspired or influenced by not so nice things though

The real question is, how much did they retain

@GoldenGail3 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fascism You're incorrect

Mussolini was a socialist
