What do you mean when you say they “caused untold destruction?” Do you legitimately think Tsarist Russia was better for its people than the USSR, or that the Russian Federation is better for its people now than the USSR was? Do you think the colonized, nationalist China was better for its people than the PRC? Legitimately.
In both the USSR and PRC, life expectancies doubled, literacy rates over tripled, disparity shrank dramatically while rapidly improving the economy, and famines ended in countries where that was previously common. No, not perfect, but undeniably massive improvements, and it is Marxism-Leninism and those millions who adhered to it that accomplished those massive victories.
On a planet that produces more food than can be eaten by all the humans living on it, a holocaust worth of people starve to death every year. But this isn’t counted or considered because it’s ‘natural.’
Meanwhile if a country manages to escape that system, it is subjected to brutal siege warfare and sabotage. And when that isolation is compounded by floods or famine, the deaths suffered are considered as failures of the system and deliberate brutality.
You grew up in the most propagandized society in the history of the world and have not done any critical examination to dispel its effect.
Mortality rates in the USSR and PRC went so far down once Socialism was implemented that life expectancy doubled, and nearly doubled in the case of Cuba. Communism was horrible to the previous ruling class, but for the vast majority of people is marked by massive improvements in key metrics like literacy rates, housing rates, lower poverty rates, and life expectancy. These countries did not get worse with Socialism, they were hellish beforehand and it was the Communists that ceaselessly worked to fix their broken countries.
Oh yeah the leaders who caused untold destruction on their own people and started authoritarian regimes… Totally the same

Very silly people.
there’ll be more; this pill is too bitter to swallow thanks to the depth to which we’re indoctrinated.
For sure, kinda just wanted to see what the response to a pro-Marxism-Leninism meme would be. Seems split 50/50 so far.
Ended up as 2:1 from the tiny fraction of liberals who engaged.
81 up to 58 down, not quite 2:1 but not bad either.
Yes they did, and many people died from it, for some reason poeple don’t understand how horrible communism is
