>>5382762The difference is Stalin DIRECTLY caused those famines with his 5 year plans in an attempt to industrialize the soviet union
Capitalism did not, because the capitalist countries decided not to help them. Giraffes aren't responsible for the lives of salamanders as a group of people isn't responsible for the lives of another
>>5382785The Russian empire was a police state with terrible conditions so its no surprise that communism was an improvement + Stalin's rapid industrialization plans improved conditions after his reign of terror, famine, and death
Stalin, most terribly, turned Russians back into surfs by taking away any freedoms they had before
Capitalist countries have made their citizens self ruling, happy, free, and have access to modern day technologies, can communism say the same?
