Soon to be outdone by the number of children American women have murdered in the womb via abortion. Premeditated; brutally torn and ripped apart.

Roughly 60 million since 1973.

Give ‘em another decade or so - they’ll put the Bolsheviks to shame.

I can’t read behind the paywall, so I don’t know if the author makes this point, but the violent depravity of Soviet communism was also responsible to a considerable extent for the rise of Nazism and other fascisms. Without the plague of the Comintern and the push for “revolution” across Europe and worldwide, it is very unlikely that we would have seen the rise of Hitler or Mussolini.

it hollowed out society’s moral core, degrading the individual and turning him into a cog in the machinery of the state.

Communists are atheists because it allows them to treat human beings as pieces of meat, to be disposed of as the state sees fit. Not one single communist regime, past or present, has ever upheld individual rights against the state. No communist regime has ever recognized the Rule of Law, that the state is bound by the law as much as the individual citizens. And no communist court has ever placed a limit on the state by ruling in favor of the individual citizen.

Its a good gig if you are an elite, you can live like a King. Too bad if not, then you live like a peasant. Just another tyranny under a new name.

Seems to me Communism and Islam are in a competition for the Largest death count per Bankrupt Ideology

This is the democrat party. They hire thugs to start riots and kill people. This has already happened.

obama and Eric Holder and Hillary Clinton are mass murderers supported by the likes of George Bush. Hundreds murdered in Mexico by guns sent to the drug cartels hoping they would kill many people then having the Mexican politicians (on the take by everyone) and the corrupt news media whipping up stories demanding the end of the 2nd amendment and confiscate all guns.

Next the following would happen in various forms by the democrat party members.

Vasily Blokhin
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vasily_Blokhin

Excerpt: Hand-picked for the position by Joseph Stalin in 1926, Blokhin led a company of executioners that performed and supervised numerous mass executions during Stalin’s reign, mostly during the Great Purge and World War II.[2] He is recorded as having executed tens of thousands of prisoners by his own hand, including his killing of about 7,000 Polish prisoners of war during the Katyn massacre in spring 1940,[2][3] making him the most prolific official executioner and mass murderer in recorded world history.

Excerpt: Blokhin initially decided on an ambitious quota of 300 executions per night; and engineered an efficient system in which the prisoners were individually led to a small antechamber—which had been painted red and was known as the “Leninist room”—for a brief and cursory positive identification, before being handcuffed and led into the execution room next door. The room was specially designed with padded walls for soundproofing, a sloping concrete floor with a drain and hose, and a log wall for the prisoners to stand against. Blokhin would stand waiting behind the door in his executioner garb: a leather butcher’s apron, leather hat, and shoulder-length leather gloves. Then, without a hearing, the reading of a sentence or any other formalities, each prisoner was brought in and restrained by guards while Blokhin shot him once in the base of the skull

Excerpt: Blokhin and his team worked without pause for 10 hours each night, with Blokhin executing an average of one prisoner every three minutes.[3] At the end of the night, Blokhin provided vodka to all his men.[18] On 27 April 1940, Blokhin secretly received the Order of the Red Banner and a modest monthly pay premium as a reward from Joseph Stalin for his “skill and organization in the effective carrying out of special tasks”.[19][20] His count of 7,000 shot in 28 days remains the most organized and protracted mass murder by a single individual on record

Bolsheviks are like bacteria, they never die, they just mutate and a new antibiotic has to be patented to cure the new mutations. Trump is the current new anti-biotic.
