Why the Hammer and Sickle Should Be Treated Like the SwastikaDope. Care to respond about the thread’s question?The ideology is making a comeback in different forms all over the world. The first thing supporters will tell you is “no no no we’re nothing like the Nazi’s, not at all stop trying to silence us!” Would there be people proudly calling themselves “Nazi’s” had the Holocaust never happened/been discovered?
*It should be noted that Holocaust type events cannot be separated from that ideology as fear and hatred of minority groups and the “other” are core principles that inevitably lead to that type of event.
Nazis, Communists, and Socialists are all ideologies based on emotions and each of those ideologies have killed millions of people by demonizing those that subscribe to equal rights and opportunity for everyone.
Anyone subscribing to one of these ideologies is the enemy of humans.
You just called me a dope so I triggered your emotions so which one of the aforementioned ideologies do you subscribe?
Answer that question because yours was just a fucking troll/click bait to trigger others emotions of find those who affirm your ideology.
Why do we treat two equally bloody ideologies in such starkly different ways?

". . . .As economist Murray Rothbard once said: “It is no crime to be ignorant of economics [...] But it is totally irresponsible to have a loud and vociferous opinion on economic subjects while remaining in this state of ignorance.”
We need to say the same about communism. To continue advocating communism despite its dismal track record is neither well-intentioned nor misguided; it is a deliberate attempt to push a provably dangerous ideology. The history of communism is as bloodstained as that of Nazism; much more so, actually. It’s time we treated it as such."
