    My sanity is too severely weakened to directly engage in these discussions. On my behalf, can someone ask for once how exactly communism kills people?

    Is it just because it provokes a negative reaction from the rich and a lot of people die in the subsequent conflict, or is collective control of capital somehow inherently deadly?

    I'm really wondering if I'm missing something obvious and that's why I'm a communist and almost no one around me is.

      The hammer and sickle falls off the flag and fucking crushes at least 3 people every day and that's how communism kills people. Communism wouldn't kill people if we replaced the hammer and sickle with a pillow and a duck

          You'd think the Chinese stars would have a bigger body count due to their number but actually the big star on the Vietnamese flag once fell off during a parade and mowed down fifty thousand people like a wheat thresher. It only stopped rolling once it hit the ocean and sank. Some say its still rolling down there.

      it's an aoe drain effect that affects communist nations. Without the positive influx of capital you just can't tank it.
