    Some of the biggest genocides and mass murder were conducted by communists believing in communism organized in communist parties. It’s not an outlier. Things always go terrible when they come to power. The ideology is flawed, otherwise it wouldn’t have these extreme and undesirable outcomes.

      Every economic system has created mass murderers and genocides. It turns out mass murder and genocide is just a bad habit that humanity has, and it doesn’t really matter what system of goods distribution you use.

      If mass murder and genocide was written into the basic ideology of Communism, then yes, I would agree with you. But it isn’t. Just like mass murder and genocide isn’t written into capitalism. But there are plenty of capitalistic countries that do mass murder in genocide.
