1/n Nazism was based on false biology and communism is based on false sociology. Both systems have ambition of being scientific and resting on the scientific basis. #communism #socialism
2/n The classes and the races, too weak to master the new conditions of life must give way.(People's Paper, 16 Apr 1853 ) ... They must perish in the revolutionary holocaust (Journal of the History of ideas, Vol 42, No 1, 1981) - Karl Marx

7/n Marx continues to appeal to social justice warriors thanks to axioms such as “from each according to his ability, to each according to his need.” & who determines “need”? The presumably omniscient, benevolent State.
8/n Marxism promised to end the “class struggle” but did so by subjugating almost everyone to officialdom.
9/n “Our morality is new,”Lenin said in 1918.“To us,all is permitted.. Blood? Let there be blood..for only the complete & final death of the old world will save us from the return of the old jackals.” As it turned out,new revolutionary jackals were worse than the old czarist ones
10/n Lenin pioneered the use of mass terror for political control. A post-truth leader, he invented fake news. He proclaimed dazzlingly simple solutions: Destroy legal and institutional norms, expropriate the property of the rich, and Russia would be on the path to Utopia.
12/n Lenin reminded G Zinoviev,a member of the Bolshevik inner circle,that “the dictatorship means unrestrained power and the use of force, not of law.” Laws were a bourgeois invention, unsuitable for revolutionaries. Mass killing became the main strategy to put down rebellion.
14/n The elimination of a social class,the kulaks & the subsequent killer famine among all Ukrainian peasants,including 1937 order No. 00447 that called for the mass execution & exile of “socially harmful elements” as “enemies of the people”–were, in fact, genocide.
17/n The difference between communism and Hitler faith was very slight. - Dr Gobells, - Hitler's Propaganda Minister
18/n The Soviet Story Documentory
19/n I "appeal to the chemists to discover a humane gas that will kill instantly and painlessly. Deadly by all means, but humane not cruel..." - Bernard Shaw, Listener 7 Feb 1934
20/n The left was opposed to Hitler because he chose gas people by race. Hitler got it all wrong, they wanted the people to be gassed by the class, which was done by Soviets. - from The Soviet Story documentary
21/n For Churchill the Nazi and Communist ideology were pretty similar. - from The Soviet Story documentary
