Reminds me of a youtube short about the time a woman accidentally crashed her car into Stalin’s and how his unexpected reaction was, of course, not to execute the woman on the spot, but to more or less shrug it off and laugh about it. Pretty undeniably sympathetic reaction, right?
Well, one Youtube commenter took this from it:
“This is almost scarier than if he had just killed the woman because it makes him uNpRedIcTaBlE.”
Through the magic of
pure ideology, you too can make the most normal, human things seem nefarious and machiavellian.
One of the wildest anti-communist lies I’ve ever seen was a comment on RevLeftRadio’s episode on Che Guevara. Some clown made the claim that after the revolution ended, Che would travel around Cuba on his motorcycle and just murder random people for fun like some deranged serial killer.
Shit like this clearly demonstrates how utterly pointless it is for current day self-described “leftists” to denounce past communist movements. It doesn’t matter how much you insist that “we’re not like those ebil red fash aUtHoRiTaRiAns”, the people who oppose you are going to just make shit up from thin air to discredit you no matter what.
My favourite anti-communist trope is the made up quote attributed to a famous communist.
Lenin’s “useful idiots”, Stalin’s “one million is a statistic” and “what matters is who counts the votes”. There’s also a supposed Che quote about how killing people made him feel good. Just the most moustache-twirling maniacal-cackling cartoon villain stuff.

I think it’s fucking hilarious that planning and foresight are concepts so alien to westoids that they see it as a sign of gross economic mismanagement.
It’s like watching a mordily obese person declare with confidence that eating vegetables causes heart attacks. You just have to laugh.
