And USSR understood that immediately after WWII end, USA planned to finish what Nazis started. Using also nuclear bombs which USSR didn't have at the time.
- drran 5y agoCommunists in USSR killed about 10x more innocents than Nazi. (Did you heard about Holodomor?). Why Nazi bad but USSR isn't?
- trasz 5y agoIf you count Holodomor as communism victims, you should also count all the people who died of poverty in the West as capitalism victims.
- goohle 5y agoFamine ≠ killing by starving to death. USSR had massive famines before and after Holodomor. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holodomor https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holodomor
- whydoibother 5y agoBody counts as indicators of who is more evil is so absurd. What a useless argument. How many people did the USSR lift out of poverty and extend the lifespan of? Same with Mao and China. People who frame these as “omg but their body count” are so obviously disingenuous. Never see them mention body counts of the British empire or the American empire. Nooo, can’t do that. Commy man bad.
