Yeah, you are so f**king far off. I don’t have any clue where 200 million came from. That’s absurd. You probably inflated that number intentionally, because the number I have always heard floated around is 100 million. That figure comes from the Black Book of Communism, which has come under intense scrutiny because they include deaths from war and starvation which many believe shouldn’t be included. Regardless, many authors of the book have since disputed and refuted it and that statistic specifically. It has been claimed that the main author of the book was obsessed at arriving at a number around 100 million.
I haven’t encountered a single communist, and I talk to a lot, even the Marxist-Leninists, who claim Pol Pot as a genuine communist leader. The Communist Party in Cambodia even called themselves “revolutionaries”, not communists. Pol Pot also strayed from traditional Marxist-Leninist policy, which suggests he wasn’t truly communist. Vietnam, another communist nation, invaded Cambodia to take over the government and install a different Marxist-Leninist party.
Your claim that Castro killed millions is laughable. Even the liberal statistics put his death toll at a few thousand. Chavez didn’t “murder” millions either. Lmfao. He also wasn’t a communist, but did try to advance socialism in Venezuela. There were some poor monetary decisions made by his government, and the economy relied too heavily on oil, so when oil prices came down, they could no longer afford the programs Chavez put into place.
Using the same process that the anti-communist death tabulators did, let’s see how many capitalism kills in a year, shall we? In any given year, between 1 and 3 million die from lack of clean water or water-related diseases. Also every year, 9 million die of starvation, even though we produce enough to feed all. From vaccine-preventable diseases, 1.5 million die every year. And more than 4 million die each year from exposure to air pollution. So that’s anywhere between 15.5 to 17.5 million deaths every year due to the failures of capitalism. After about 6 years, capitalism kills more than communism supposedly did in 80 years.
