Just out of curiosity, what implores you to ask me those questions? Considering I said nothing about any of those topics. It feels like a weird reaction to suddenly make this about capitalism vs communism.

But I suppose I'll engage despite it being hard to take your confusion about America seriously. In places such as the Lubyanka basement, Butovo firing range, and other NKVD sites, prisoners were often shot in the back of the head while standing or seated. Some facilities had drainage systems or chutes. Bodies were trucked to pre-prepared mass graves (Katyn, Kurapaty, Bykivnia, and many others). This was part of a deliberate system of class-based and political terror: the Red Terror under Lenin, the Great Purge, dekulakization, the Holodomor, and the gulag system.

If you can show me where in history America implemented this system, such that you could honestly be confused whether I was talking about Russia or America, I would be truly impressed.

It is interesting how people fail to conceptualize the terror imposed on Black and native people as happening "to us". It shows how effective U.S. propaganda has been at framing the national body and dismissing people as "others" deserving of harsh treatment.

		I noticed you didn't provide anything that would constitute a counter-argument. Have you considered people might not take what you say seriously because of that? The word "people" in your sentence is vague and seems to be a generalized ad-hominem attack, probably intending to categorize myself in it - despite you having absolutely no evidence to back it up. This level of ignorance is not going to help your cause. It's quite possible to abhor the atrocities of the red terror and American slavery, as I do. What I do _not_ do is play revisionist and pretend like America has ever setup such a precise killing machine as the Soviets did in the 20th century.
