Jesus, this is tiring... First, it's not "my system". I'm not a Soviet apologist, I'm not a communist, and frankly I don't even think communism is a workable system of government. But I would the same exact things about libertarianism. Just because I don't agree with something doesn't mean I think people should be prosecuted for it. I get that you're trying to say that there's something inherent in communism that causes totalitarian states, but you are confusing correlation with causation. Whatever terrible things have been done in the name of communism (and absolutely, some of the worst attrocities in history have taken place under communist rule), the same or worse things (slavery, genocide, oppression, colonialism) have been done under capitalist rule.
