Death inflicted by Ideologies

This is in response to a comment on the thread "The most hated clans on AW" that Serb commented.

This is the link to the thread:http://atwar-game.com/forum/topic.php?topic_id=21009

This is Serb's comment:


As Serb said, Capitalism and National-Socialism, killed more people than Communism, and like most people know, those statistics arent fully correct, so I've found decent websites that provide great statistics about ideologies "body counts".
As it is depicted there, some deaths arent counted, but if you count those, you'll realize Communism killed 140.000.000+ people, while comparing to other Ideologies, such as National-Socialism, they killed/caused the death of about 80-90million people, which is much lower than communism casualties.
This is not a thread to glorify evil ideologies like national-socialism, but it is not right to fault-advertise an ideology that killed over 130.000.000 million people (excluding death counts that those website's research exclude).


I'm posting the links below, of Communism body count, and of National-Socialism Body count.

As said, you can see death by famine, repressions, etc.. from the rise of communism (1918) until it's end.

Here we can see National-Socialism led to the death of 20.946.000 non military deaths, which mean it caused the death of almost 21million civilians, (counting all WW2 casualties, which were caused by Germany's agression, this number escalates to 85-100 million people.

It's not an exact known number, but Capitalism, a bad ideology for itself, in some way, has caused the death of 100-120 million people throughout the 20th and 21st centuries.



This wasn't a thread made, as I said, to glorify one ideology and bash the other one, this was a thread to inform and expose the (real) body counts of the biggest ideologies that rose at some point/still are predominant, as we know, Serb tends to glorify Communism by confronting the death caused by western ideologies and western countries, but Communism isnt, and never will be a good ideology to set in motion, as Fascism will never be.

Altough deaths inflicted by Capitalism aren't clear and exact, and altough some count the Bengal famine, and the fact that an average of 5.000.000 children die every year of starvation due to the lack of solidarity shared by capitalist countries, and it's ego-centric regimes, we can admit Communism led to the death of a huge number of people.



I'd appreciate no hate towards this thread, as I wrote it to show decent and true numbers, once again, I say: I'm not glorifying Fascism, and despite coming from a family of fascist aristocrats, I don't share their beliefs.



I found this article pretty good, so I felt it like I should share:
