| Topic | Norways Prime Minister claims neo-Nazis and far left have much in common. |
| ROBANN_88 08/23/17 12:55:10 PM #53 | scar the 1 posted... The quote in the OP seems to refer to people like Antifa etc. At least that's what I assume is the context given current events and discussions on this board. Those groups are violent, but they're quite openly violent against fascism, nazism, and so on. Comparisons to totalitarian regimes that execute any dissenter fall a little flat, I think. perhaps. but if you'll look closely, none of my posts about communist genocides have been about or related to the discussion on Antifa in any way. the first post i responded to was Unfairs post about Communist Russia, which then led to Samurons claim that "Communism is innocent, Stalin was just a mean guy who happened to be Communist." and the claim that they only ever go after the rich. i don't see where you got the idea that i was using totalitarian regimes to rag on Antifa, when these discussions have been completely separate from each other. --- |

Rich is not a protected class. the Communist Party of Kampuchea (Khmer Rouge) in Cambodia killed people cause they were academics, or looked like they might possibly be academics or smart, like anyone who wore glasses. "The population must, they believed, be made to work as labourers in one huge federation of collective farms. Anyone in opposition - and all intellectuals and educated people were assumed to be - must be eliminated, together with all un-communist aspects of traditional Cambodian society." http://www.ppu.org.uk/genocide/g_cambodia1.html --- |
