If it's wrong to compare every Christian to Robert Tilton, or every atheist to Richard Dawkins, then it's wrong to compare every communist to Stalin.

@literorrery Oof. I take issue with that one. Not every christian or atheist is a terrible person, but there are a hell of a lot of examples of how communism was really really bad in many countries.

@literorrery Note that that's not a judgement on the system itself, just on how it's gone so far. If anything, I'd say that we're not yet able to handle governmental systems like that. We have too much damage in our societies for someone to not rise up and attempt to use those kinds of power structures to control others.
