Well I guess because communism, unlike nazism, doesn't have hatred hardcoded in ideology.
On the other hand there is difference between theory and practice, you can have any ideological system, but if you depend on totalitarian dictator everything can fall apart - You depend on mood of that person/party.
Just guessing ;-)
- hga 11y agoWell I guess because communism, unlike nazism, doesn't have hatred hardcoded in ideology. Bullshit. That the hatred is on the much more versatile axis of class instead of race doesn't make it any less vile. You don't rack up a 20th century record of a bare minimum of 100 million slaughtered without exercising a lot of hatred.
- arnoooooo 11y agoYou assume that the slaughtering was based on class. I don't think this is true. A lot of the killing was just about maintaining political power, just like in any dictatorship, whatever the official ideology. You also need to consider what class means. It's basically behaviour: you are upper class if you exploit others. In that lens, it becomes ok to hate the upper class, but the upper class can change, it's not hated based on something inherent to the people that make it up, like "race".
- popee 11y agoWhen I said hatred I meant 'Kill black people, jews, ...' directly in their ideology. So, can you guess what would happen if they won? Half world extinguished in few decades.
- PlzSnow 11y agoFascism: kill millions of poor people for their race. Communism: kill millions of poor people for their politics. Fascism and communism are the same thing, if you define them by how many poor people they torture and murder.
- arnoooooo 11y agoRace can't be changed. Politics can. The comunist manifesto also nether calls for any kind of violence, violent people just chose to use it.
