    The United States (U.S.) voted for the Khmer Rouge and the Khmer Rouge-dominated Coalition Government of Democratic Kampuchea (CGDK) to retain Cambodia’s United Nations (UN) seat until as late as 1993,

    Citing Pol Pot as if socialists defend him is always liberals telling on themselves. Even the slightest investigation would’ve taught them otherwise but they’re so incurious and full of themselves that they decided they had no need to learn anything at all before sharing their jackass opinions.

      Liberals blindly support “their team” no matter how reprehensible, so they assume everyone else must do it too.

    Vinberg’s colleagues Scheubner‐Richter and Rosenberg in particular stressed that the “Jewish Bolshevik” dictatorship had killed millions of Russians through war, disease, starvation, and execution. In an October 1922 edition of Aufbau Correspondence, Scheubner‐Richter estimated the costs of the “Bolshevik experiment” to the Russian people at approximately two million refugees and 35 million dead.⁶¹

    In an August 1921 Völkisch Observer article, “The Pogrom Against the German and the Russian Peoples,” Rosenberg claimed of Russia: “A characteristic Jewish rule of terror was set up as world history had not yet seen […] Over 30 million people have sunk away through murder, starvation, and cholera.”⁶² He revised his figures upwards in his 1923 Protocols work. He asserted, “Over 40 million Russians perished through the Jewish terror.”⁶³ Hitler used the figure of 40 million Russian victims of starvation that the Jews had caused as early as an August 1921 speech.⁶⁴

      haha, look at that number starting to evolve. Reminds me of how Iran killed 3,000 9,000 12,000 20,000 30,000 40,000 62,000 people earlier this year

      These are all real figures that I have seen grow in real time

    Meanwhile real Mamdani:

    “I believe both Joseph Stalin and Mao Ze Dong are dictators”.

    Mamdani described Stalin’s government as “one of repression” that has “stifled free and fair elections, jailed political opponents, and suppressed the free and fair press”.

    For those who don’t get the reference: https://substack.com/@dee1337977/note/c-183045354

    As an aside I hate how hard was it to find any reporting of it, the search results being flooded with coprorate media outraged for Mamdani for “failing to call Diaz-Canel a dictator” because he initially tried to weasel his way out of answering the question.

    The reason we “defend authoritarian dictators” is because we want to defend the accomplishments of really existing socialism, and other people’s false or exaggerated beliefs about those “dictators” almost always get in the way — it’s not tankies but normies who commit the synecdoche of reducing all of really existing socialism to Stalin and Mao. Those accomplishments include raising standards of living, achieving unprecedented income equality, massive gains in women’s rights and the position of women vis-a-vis men, defeating the Nazis, raising life expectancy, ending illiteracy, putting an end to periodic famines, inspiring and providing material aid to decolonizing movements (e.g. Vietnam, China, South Africa, Burkina Faso, Indonesia), which scared the West into conceding civil rights and the welfare state. These were greater strides in the direction of abolishing capitalism than any other society has ever made. These are the gains that are so important to insist on, against the CIA/Trotskyist/ultraleft consensus that the Soviet Union was basically an evil empire and Stalin a deranged butcher.

    I don’t get it. Are they mad at the ICC? Someone else asked why he didn’t mention the people in charge of Oct 7th and he cited the guy by name and went “didn’t the ICC put a warrant out for him too?” Because it’s the ICC that claims he needs to stand trial; Mamdani didn’t claim that on his own (even though he could and would have been right).

    Also, I’m just kidding. I do get it. It’s iconography and feeling sure that someone in the comments on fucking Reddit or whatever is going to cite the black book of communism for them because they’re just on their little side for their cosmetic politics as entertainment

    I think I finally figured out where the 100+ brazillion deaths number comes from. It’s just the natural death rate of China and USSR from old age and illness over some arbitrary time period.

      There are a few million dead Nazis, among several other things, in that number.

      100 million people died under communism.

      As in they were not immortal, and government policy happened to be communist.

      They count the number of people who weren’t born as a result of their Nazi soldier would-be parents dying in war as communist deaths. So the number is exponentially growing as subsequent Nazi non-generations aren’t born from those earlier non-born Nazis.

      There is also the potential deaths of people who never even born, but if they had been born they would have been 100% killed by communism, so they count too. This is just basic math.
