Only an idiot would say that the majority of the harm caused in the last century was caused by "capitalist" systems.

yes, because unless a nation which purports to be communistic clicks perfectly with the utopic ideal projected by marx then it has nothing to do with communism, right? ussr? nope, no communism to see here.

lenin was a bourgeouis philistine (i mean this in the flaubertian sense, not the marxian, i.e. the state of someone's mind, not the state of their wallet) and tyrant; communist russia was foredoomed from the beginning, and all of trotsky's erudition wouldn't have changed that gloomy fate.

marx's imagined utopia of beaming proles will never be achieved, since one of its unmissable steps is the dictatorship of the proletariat, and the road will always stop there, with mounds of bodies flanking the road and some cretinous tyrant standing in the way.

what happened in china, russia (and the countries which fell under russia's imperialistic hammer), cambodia, etc. weren't anomalies, they were the logical, though undesired by many, conclusions of communist ideology.
