Those were your picks for the average capitalist democracy but I’m the one cherry picking? Lmao
The point is just “100 is an exaggeration”? That’s all? Thanks for the contribution cOmRaDe
Ah yes, India, Haiti, and Myanmar. Definitely what people instantly think of when prompted for the average modern capitalist democracy rather than the us, uk, denmark, sweden, norway, germany, netherlands…cherry pick a bit harder and you might start making sense
Feel free to clarify your point
Like if those 100 million people would have died anyway, how to do you say ‘it was communism that did it’
Ehhhh, because you can tie it directly to communist policies like collectivisation?
Liberal socialism is a thing. But yes, hard to have liberal values alongside the communist cancer.
But if you have a hard time naming democratic communist leaders, that’s largely because you’ve only been taught about the totalitarian ones.
I did say they usually go together.
They usually come packaged together. You’ll have a hard time naming democratic liberal communist countries/leaders.
If we count shit like that, Capitalism has killed billions.
Only if you don’t adjust for functioning existence lmao.
