Sorry I’ve been posting a lot of Ager recently, I just find his takes amusingly bad.

More comedic gold from Ager:
“Lol, you think that Wikipedia descriptions are more representative of communist reality than the historical events I described? You're talking about what communism claims to stand for. I'm talking about what it actually practices ... extreme authoritarianism being a requirement for its leaders to pursue said promises.
To pass off all evidence of communist crimes against humanity as being just a "red scare" is a mirror of holocaust denial. I see you haven't discredited the examples I gave, just trying to distract from them. It's like saying, "hey the Nazis turned the German economy around and provided more for their people, so their doctrine was good" while ignoring the regimes atrocities.
As for the US, I've many times talked about the horrors of US foreign policy and their parallels with Nazism, such as in my studies of Starship Troopers and Dr Strangelove. The difference between you and I is you're stuck in the false choice trap of thinking you have to choose the US "capitalist" model or the USSR "communist" model of society, each of which have committed atrocities around the world. Each side in that dumb argument points to the other as the excuse for it's own brand of oppression. I don't fall for either of them and neither should you. Frankly, it's rather cowardly to not face the reality of that false choice situation. Shame on you ;)“
Imagine thinking that studying movies gives you a genuine insight into the actual horrors of US foreign (and domestic, why do they always forget about the sterilization campaigns?) policy.
