Saint-Raphaël's right-wing mayor, no stranger to media stunts, has vowed to 'put an end to the lies about the reality of communist totalitarianism.' In response, the French Communist Party and other left-wing groups denounced the 'revisionism of history.'
I’ll always prefer ideologies that aim to do well but end up misused for power over ideologies that directly aim to do evil.
Nazism aims to end the “oppression” of the straight Aryan man by destroying Jews, queers and so on.
Communism aims to end the oppression of the worker by ending private property and seizing the means of production.
Even if many or all communist systems end up in violent autocratic tyranny, I’ll never equate the two ideologies or their followers.
Exactly. Striving for egalitarianism is objectively more ethical than whatever fascism is.
