Sanders and Jones are responsible for zero deaths, as far as we know. That’s true. But let’s think about it in terms of possible futures. If either one could create the government they want, could that government do the deeds of Stalin or Hitler? Of course that’s not a sure thing. But it is more possible if they implement their ideological systems, than to stay with the enlightenment principles which have produced the freest societies for individuals ever.Numbers I pulled up in a cursory internet search
Stalin responsible for 20-25 million deaths. The Gulag, work camps and re-education camps, starvation used as a weapon.
Hitler responsible for 11 million deaths, including 5-6 million jews. Concentration camps and industrialized murder.
Bernie Sanders responsible for 0 known deaths, no known innovations in repression
Arthur Jones responsible for 0 known deaths, no known innovations in mass murder
I have no qualms characterizing peeps as neo-whatever, admit that we should not allow past evils to again take root - but as you said in an earlier post, Nazi is in danger of going the way of racist and becoming a term devoid of its true meaning.
See: soup nazi, grammer nazi etc etc
Cue the argument that the internet numbers about how many each killed are wrong in 3 ... 2 ... 1 ...
