I have to stop saying "How stupid can you be?"

You seem to take it as a challenge.



“In its many enthroned variations, from Lenin's 1917 revolution to the recent Marxist Leninist regimes of Africa, communism has killed upwards of 100 million people65 million in China alone. Courtois and his colleagues do not simply unfold the numbers relentlessly and numbingly. Instead, they painstakingly explore the many ways the killing was done-from summary execution to forced deportations, from mass starvation to the gulag-and examine its many pretexts.”

So....why didn't you learn it then?



1. Once the Sandinistas captured power in Nicaragua in July 1979, they immediately imposed a ruthless dictatorship, complete with spy networks, a ‘Sandinista Defense Committee’ in each neighborhood, censored all publications, crushed trade unions, and seized the means of production.
[see Pascal Fontaine, “Nicaragua: The Failure of a Totalitarian Project,” in Courtois et al., The Black Book of Communism, p. 665-675]


2. The Sandinistas were influenced by three major groups of thought. First, and perhaps most heavily, they were influenced by the teachings of Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels. Marx’s dialectical materialism, proletariat revolution, and rule by the workers seemed perfect and ingenious. The Sandinistas arrogantly viewed themselves as the catalyst of the proletariat revolution in Nicaragua. Second, they were influenced by Augusto Sandino, the aforementioned hero of the anti-US struggle. Sandino was a paternal character whose ideas were reflective of his pagan religion, his Marxist beliefs, and his close association with anarchism. Finally, they were influenced by the Christian Theology of Liberation.
The Impact of the Sandinistas on Nicaragua


i. The Sandinistas, in the first few months of their sovereignty, ignored their promise of political democracy. They immediately set up a ruling junta, made up of five top Sandinista officials, including Daniel Ortega and Violeta Barrios de Chamorro. And, as well, their promise of international nonalignment was violated: they allied with the Soviet Union and Cuba, receiving heavy financial and military aid from these countries. They grew more and more distant from the US and other capitalist nations.
Ibid.


ii. Equal parts of improved education and political oppression: they carried out some eight thousand political executions in three years; and by 1983 they had over twenty thousand prisoners in their jails.

And let me see, Reagan was what, 20 years ago yet this it STILL his fault

you people will swallow anything and that the Washingtoncompost even had to gall to post such propaganda garbage. what's sadder is you fell for it which is what the compost relies on, low information citizens

what a sad little troll who cant handle facts.your the one that falls for propaganda garbage hypocrite.you cover your eyes and cover your ears everytime i educate you sending you this link exposing the real ronald reagan.


Let us remember Reagan as he really was :



•Liar
•Thief
•Mass murderer
•Supporter of abortion
•War criminal
•
•

•Destroyer of freedom
•Traitor of the American people
•Corporate whore



Reagan's was the most corrupt administration in the lifetime of most Americans

You reaganut worshippers have the most poor debating skiils of anyone that existed.none of you ever try and refute these facts,you all cowardly run off with your tail between your legs everytime this is displayed to you.you would be laughed out of a debating hall in a minute if you acted the same way there you all do here.you got to try and refute the facts your opponent presents,you all never do that.

such hypocrisy at the worst,you worship everything the idiot box in the living room tells you and what the front pages of the newspapers in the lamestream media say as well -all controlled by the CIA,so talk about someone brainwashed by propaganda. what a fucking hypocrite. TIME magazine -which its a very well known fact has been controlled by the CIA for the last several decades,is the most recent CIA propaganda being spoon fed by the media to the american sheople like you about reagans alleged greatness leaving out all those key facts in that link of course.


every single president since carter,has been worse than the previous one.reagan got the ball rolling and started american down to the path of corruption so the media naturally worships him as this idol they do since he is the grandfather of it all.

true to form hypocrite stephanie and the other reagnut worshippers have no answers to that link.like clockwork,they are so predicatble.they can only sling shit in defeat like the monkey trolls they are.

Guffaw. The old "domino effect" THEORY? I'm embarrassed for you in that turned-out to be false in SE Asia and it was false in the Americas

 

[hortysir]

So does this mean that it's Reagan's fault that we're being invaded by Central Americans?

You be the JUDGE

You can look further back than that. I believe in you
