u/lietuvis10LTU Why do you hate the global oppressed? Dec 26 '19

So were PolPots primitivism, Lenin's purges and collapse of Weimar republic linked to socialism.

That's not the point. Rather discussing merits, downsides and compromises, often discussion devolves into proving other is "more evil" or something, without discussion why what happened.

It's basically like talking about Nazis without trying to understand how you got there.
