But what can you expect? The Soviet Union was created as a result of a violent revolution....and violent revolutionaries. You can't expect a bunch of revolutionaries to suddenly become pacifists after staining their hands in the blood of millions....


I notice not many leftists are responding to this. Are they perhaps afraid of the reality of their brutal ideology? Beyond the calm ivory towers of academia lies a world where reality is often brutal and terrifying.


Ideological loyalty is the act of giving your soul to a vague concept, to be manipulated by people smarter than you.
