I think I agree the article isn't useful. Mao and Stalin were rivals. Mao and Kruschev were enemies. Pol Pot was deposed by the Vietnamese, who also claimed to be Communists. It's interesting that all four countries claimed an ideology that we translate into English as communism, but it's not really useful for really understanding what they were about.

I kind of agree with the critics of the article. Writing an article titled "Mass Killings Under Communist Regimes" is sort of like writing an article called, "Wars Started by Democrats" or "Economic Disasters Under Republican Presidents." It's an article whose undertone is a political point. Wikipedia should not be used for that.

I also think that the anti-communism article should probably be deleted, for the same reason, unless I'm missing something.

LOL, of course the lefties would come out in defense of communism and the millions of lives destroyed in its name... Communism is only for the peasants, the elites are not bound by the same lifestyle or rules. The ruling class gets everything while everyone else gets nothing but misery. Sounds fair.. Can't fix stupid Ma...

I think I agree the article isn't useful. Mao and Stalin were rivals. Ho Chi Minh and Pol Pot were enemies. It's interesting that all four men claimed an ideology that we translate into English as communism, but it's not really useful for really understanding what they were about.

Heres the real definition of a useless page.."Benevolent Charities founded under communist regimes". The issue here should not be 'is it useful', but rather 'is it the truth'. Otherwise, it's just another form of revisionism by exclusion.

At some point you just have to let go of what you thought should happen and live in what is happening.

It was a serious question. I didn't have time to look it up. I was just trying to think of an example that might fit Mikey's example and thought that might be in there. Anyways, looked it up and didn't see it in there.
