Victims of Communism memorial thread

Starving Cambodians

Cambodian genocide skulls. RIP

This is a memorial thread. Please be respectful.

Did you know that the U.S. actually funded Pol Pot?

Simultaneously, they also funded and supported Suharto who tortured and killed 2,000,000 landless peasants in East Timor.

We will never forget you. RIP

does someone have that guy that said "Bolshevism was anti-russian and anti-christian and killed millions"

What does that have to do with the deaths caused by Soviet actions?
Is this the infamous commie whataboutism?

Can we also have a memorial thread for those 20 millions Russians who died due to lack of basic healthcare or starvation caused by the fall of USSR? Thanks for that one, capitalism.

Source?

how about we stop attempting to prosletyze agendisation & extend it to death by government in general?

agrandization

Isn't a bit ridiculous to claim these as victims of communism when many died from events like famines, which were partially out of the governments control, or genoicdes that were funded and supported by a capitalist superpower?

Skeletal remains in Cambodia

This is a memorial thread. Please be respectful towards the victims of communism.

Are you claiming that the starvation in Cambodia under the Khmer Rogue was caused by capitalism?

Yeah I always wonder why the US and UK supported the Khmer Rouge

Very sad

Cambodian victims of communism

does this count?

I'm saying that there are instances where the famines are out of a governments control yet these are paraded around as malicious and planned events.

Furthermore, when other famines, like the Irish potato famine, a famine that could have been managed and lives saved if the government intervened and restricted the landowners from selling food elsewhere, are pointed out as deaths attributed to capitalism, it is drowned in a sea of denial or cries of "whataboutism".

Cambodian victim

Yes. Victims of National Socialism are accepted here as well.

Please be respectful towards the victims of Communism. This is a memorial thread.

The people in this picture are NOT Cambodians.

But isn't "National Socialism" just fascism?

Jewish victims of the National Socialist German Worker's Party

RIP to all those who died in the holocaust

The British also prevented people from sending aid to the Irish, a ship with food aid was sent by the Ottoman Empire was stopped and sent back.

You are presenting a weak-man argument to save face for communism. The common argument is not that it was deliberate, but incompetence. You are saying this in order to erase an argument that communism does not work based on history, to one that it had failures due to malicious leaders.

Holocaust victims piled. We will never forget the 6 million who perished at the hands of the National Socialist German Workers Party.

RIP to all the victims of Communism and Socialism

The holocaust and Holodomor bring me deep sorrow as i am Eastern European. It brings me sadness that these atrocities were inflicted on my people by Communism and Socialism.

Where did I say that the famines were caused by incompetence? There are sometimes events beyond the control of a government or bureaucratic powers control, in these instances the best they are able to do is to try and curtail it's effects.

>RIP to all the victims of Communism and Socialism
You outed yourself with that post. Otherwise decent bait.

The statue of the Goddess of Democracy at the Victims of Communism Memorial in Washington DC. Please donate to the memorial so that the victims of Communism will never be forgotten.

As an Eastern European, my family was greatly effected by Communism and so i always work to remember it's victims. I have personally donated to the Washington DC Memorial several times.

This is a memorial thread. Please be respectful

This is a memorial thread sir. Please be respectful.

Interesting.

I wonder, is this the new fad the /pol/kids are adopting? Did they realise supporting Nazism really undermines any argument they make so they just pin it on "socialists" and thus leftists so they have more ammo to use against them while getting rid of a sinking ship on their part?

I know, I know, I'll be respectful from now on, kek.

This is a memorial thread. Please be respectful to the victims of communism.

This man helped LIBERATE you.

>US funded Pol Pot

Your point? The US also funded the USSR and Ho Chi Min during WW2.

Yes

Any kind of collectivism or socialism will always lead to mass murder

>communist government isnt responsible for famine in a collectivized agricultural state
>the evil capitalists acros the sea are to blame

Leftists should be permabanned

The 100 million toll suggested by the Black Book of Communism is flawed (the author explicitly said he stretched evidence to hit the symbolic figure). Still, Soviet apologism is a waste of time at best and excusing horrific crimes at worst, and there's nothing wrong with acknowledging the crimes of Marxist-Leninist states.

>100,000,000
Are you mad bro? Why not 100,000,000,000, 666,1488?

62 million dead by Stalin? Any proofs?

You shitlord, it was actually 100 000 000 gorillion!

again and again and again

DAILY REMINDER

YES WAS - TAK BYŁO

the fucking meme when people act like he was elected to dictator

>Evil Stalin starves 9 gorrilion of ukralians

*exit xD

>shitload of them still remains in Belarus and Lithuania
They're not native Poles, though.
Just polonized LARPing natives.

Let's make this thread about the victims of capitalism too

>Fascist terror in Spain
It was franquist, not fascist.

Yes it's true, to a degree. There was that settlement belt.

But most Poles in Lithuania are just Catholic Belarusians.

The language they speak would be completely non-understandable for modern Pole.

The ones on the "Eastern Galicia" ("Western" was Cracovian land) were mostly natives deriving from the times of Eastern Polans. The Kievan Proto-Ukrs forcefully resettled them around peripheries of their cuntrey. Since this time they were colonising that land heavily with Khokhols, I believe even Casimir the Great did a penal expedition against them (Boleslaus I believe united most of West Slavdom under his reign).

The Red Grads, more proper name was Eastern Lesserpoland as "Galicia and Volhynia" was given by Austrians after the unsuccesful Halich-Volyn state occupying it, despite that Poles still had leading character there. But the same guys behind "Greater Poland" or land of Polans were the original inhabitors.

Generally land like Old-Prussia, of the Yotvingians and Suvalkai was originally Baltic too, you can blame the Teutonics for them losing the culture. Borders between Polish Pomeranians and Baltics was more southern.

As for the Belarus the terrains and cities important to them like Podolia, Belastok, Smolensk or Viln(i)a are modern day outside of their reach and first written East Slavic language is dying outside of villages, it's sorta sad and might be main reason Lukashenka opposed the dissolution of USSR knowing it will have catastrophic effect for their culture and language. I am a Belarusian by ancestry, theother part was Carpathian-Ruthenians Ukrainians today deny the nationhood status of (despite being like - basically invented by Austrians, then Lenin-Stalin politics, furthered in land gains by Kruschnev and Gorbachev themselves Russo-Ukrs), it's hilarious and their Magyarophobia today.

...

Both capitalist and socialist states have done fucked up things.

The biggest difference is probably that capitalism has done a lot more good for the material prosperity of westerners and for the most people who have been allowed to embrace it. Capitalism isn't in of itself a confrontational ideology with talks of counter-revolutionaries, the dictatorship of the proletariat, vanguardism, etc. that can motivate violence and the suppression of freedoms.

Talking 'bout capitalism though.

I went to /leftypol/ once. It was far more terrible than I could have imagined.

There was literally a thread about thievery being ok and when I tried in the most civil manner possible to try and make a post examining their beliefs all I got was the typical childish insults and arrogance (including "just google it").

Honestly think it might have been less mature and more of a circlejerk than /pol/. But I haven't really been to either place for years.

If anything he is merely point out the double standard people have against Communism. The US lost a few hundred soldiers in Iraq, but somehow managed to kill 100,000+ Iraqi Civilians and kick start rebel groups like ISIS.
You're right, nothing wrong with acknowledging the crime of Communist states, but discounting it as an ideology is also a bad move. Communism is a valid critique on Capitalism, and to throw it in the trash because a few megalomaniacs used Populism to gain power is unfair to the ideology. No one ever points out the good in Communism, people just circle jerk about how bad Stalin was.

Stalin sucked, but had his first five year plan (which caused the most deaths) not happened, the USSR wouldn't have had the industrial ability to beat the Germans, and then they are in a worse place.

>but somehow managed to kill 100,000+ Iraqi Civilians
>he thinks coalition forces were a significant force of civilian deaths in Iraq
>when the sectarian death squads were dumping truckloads of mutilated, tortured bodies every day

The Iraq conflict was a civil war between Shia and Sunni factions that the US managed to temporarily halt long enough to pull soldiers out of the country.

when will we stop this insidiousness? Right under our own doorstep, this madness in insane authoritarian exercise continues!
I SAY STOP!

Need to add the number of people that die of starvation, preventable diseases, exposure due to homelessness as well senpai.

>go to /int/ ''why is gommunism bad?'' uhh because is bad

>go to /pol/ ''why is gommunism bad?'' JEWS, GAS THE KIKES,

i fucking hate this website

>guns kill people!
>No way lefty shitlord innanimate objects can't kill people!
>but the abstract idea of public ownership of the means of production can :^)

This is now a communism appreciation thread. Post your most glorious comrades.

No fuck you, you worthless commie shitstain. Take your worthless meme ideology back to whatever shithole you crawled from.

...

Stay mad, piggie. It only makes us stronger.

>us
>implying you aren't an autistic neckbeard LARPing in your parents' basement

commietard please

not true socialism xDDD

AYO

(this not counting hohlodomor which NEVER happened)

can we make sequel on Khmer Rogue and Fascists or so?
NAM made this originally as crimes of the statism

yeah muh no true scotsman

>a thread about thievery
Yeah. Sure it was about that bucko.

>Guerilla Warfare - (1923-1949)
>Early 1920s
>Commies part of the major warlord groups.
Mcfucking seriously?

>Capitalism isn't in of itself a confrontational ideology
Yeah, the endless competition of private companies to achieve market dominance is not confrontational in the slightest.

It was literally about it being okay to steal from stores

F

Mhm. But of course, private property, the basis of the corrupt Capitalist system must be challenged in every way whenever possible, thievery is just one fine example. In fact, the right to own your body is the most basic form of private property, and I along with most of the folks on Leftypol are in agreement that continuous raping as a way of violating this form of unjust ownership should be done whenever possible.

Yes this is pretty much what we talk about on Leftypol all the time.

You are welcome
