The Progressive Position On Genocide
This entry was posted in Uncategorized. Bookmark the permalink.
Tip of the iceberg! I am certain our Progressives can do better than that! You left out the gift of banning DDT and Rachel Carson.
For those who don’t know, the total ban on DDT ended our effective suppression of malaria carrying mosquitoes. In the year after the ban, US malaria deaths jumped ten thousand. Worldwide since the ban, the UN estimates 50 million people have died preventable deaths from malaria.
Anyone ever hear even one environmentalist admit complicity in these deaths?
The Stalin figure is arguable. Every account I have read says 35,000,000. Mostly Ukrainians starved by the collectivization of farms.
@Pathway: 35 million for Stalin sounds about right. I have read estimates as high as 40 million.
By the way, why isn’t Lenin on this list?
Lenin was the “gateway” dictator. We has securing the ability, through the conditioning of the population and the development of the security services, to for Stalin to do what he did. Felix Dzerzhinsky (Iron Felix) was Lenin’s right hand man and developed the Cheka, paving the way for the greater atrocities of Stalin.
Good to see the Lenin portrait up there as a reminder. He was the first iteration of a Hitler- or Obama-like figure, selling a deadly combination of sex appeal and demonization of “enemies” to the youth and young adults, focusing on both genders rather than just men, and applying a modernist scientific approach to the problem of mass mind control … with shockingly strong results.
Marx set up the pins, but Lenin was the first to figure out how to bowl a strike with that garbage. And check it out: he doesn’t even have an entry on the above list! The man was so diabolical, he and his early followers managed to get his own personal genocides virtually erased from history! And to this day, his organizational method is copied at the UN and in many, many countries. And to this day his health care program lives on in over a dozen countries, and in the countries where it was copied, including in the Commonwealth.
And to this day, there is a province of Leningrad in Russia, and to this day Lenin’s Mausoleum stands open to the public, and Putin is on record with the following “gem”:
“President Boris Yeltsin, with the support of the Russian Orthodox Church, intended to close the tomb and bury Lenin next to his mother [. . . .] His successor, Vladimir Putin, opposed this, pointing out that a reburial of Lenin would imply that generations of citizens had observed false values during 70 years of Soviet rule.”

Don’t leave Bill Clinton off the genocide list. He ordered the US Air Force (illegally under international law) to bomb civilian water and sewage treatment facilities in Iraq after the first Gulf War. Best estimates of the death toll are in the neighborhood of 1.5 million with a third of those being small children dying of disease. Clinton era apologists have claimed that the deaths were an unfortunate side effect of worthwhile sanctions http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HOrrOu8uV8o but destroying the civilian infrastructure was never a legitimate part of the Iraqi sanctions.

You may already have seen it, but here is a very good documentary dealing both with the Soviet era genocide and their hand-in-hand cooperation with the Nazis.

Thanks, I don’t think I have, but I will definitely look at it! I’ll need to get to a broadband connection, so it won’t be today. Thank you!
