The Black Book of Communism: Crimes, Terror, Repression by Stéphane Courtois estimates the number of people killed by Communists as follows:
- 65 million in the People’s Republic of China
- 20 million in the Soviet Union
- 2 million in Cambodia
- 2 million in North Korea
- 1.7 million in Ethiopia
- 1.5 million in Afghanistan
- 1 million in the Eastern Bloc
- 1 million in Vietnam
- 150,000 in Latin America
- 10,000 deaths “resulting from actions of the international Communist movement and Communist parties not in power.”
But none of those were - EVER - "real" Socialism which our *cough cough* intellectual and moral superiors *cough cough* assure us constantly has never been tried.
ReplyDeleteWe just lit two Yahrtzeit candles (ones you light for the dead). One for the six million; the other, for the 1/3 of my wife's ethnic group starved to death by Stalin. All victims of genocide need to be remembered.
As I remember Bastiat said Socialism invariably turns into Communism.
