I used to be an anarchist but now IDGAF how we end capitalism, as long as it is replaced by anything even slightly better, including soviet-style socialism - lesser of two evils and all that. Thus I will correct western propaganda intended to make the worst soviet leader look even worse than he actually was. I am not disputing that he was overall bad, merely pointing out that the 20 million figure is a vast overestimation, and making a comparison against a currently existing capitalist world leader who is causing a similar amount of damage with none of the achievements. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [+] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago (1 child) [removed by mod] permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] balsoft@lemmy.ml -5 points 5 days ago* What a disingenuous strawman argument.
