The Black Book of Communism is Bullshit

October 27, 2017
Despite being cited often, it's been criticized for it’s reckless, careless, & highly questionable methodology. Issues range from counting nazi collaborators as "victims of communism" to pulling numbers out of thin air. Short & simple: it's bullshit.

Its amazing folks still cite the Black Book of Communism, especially given many of its main writers admitted the 94M+ deaths claim is bogus.

Replying to

Continuing, they admit that claims of communist death toll that are 85M+ are 'unqualified', 'unjustified', and 'contractionary'. (2/2)

One of many times the Black Book of Communism counts executed White Guards who waged pogroms against Jewish folks as "victims of communism".

With this logic, British loyalists killed by American rebels during the American revolution were victims of capitalism. 🙃

The Black Book of Communism counts a militia chanting 'down with jews' that was led by a guy who killed 6000 Jews as "victims of communism".

The Black Book of Communism (page 231) counts executed nazi collaborators as 'victims of communism'. It's a big book of nazi apologism.

Black Book of Communism (p. 349) mourns a nazi concentration camp guard who was killed by a communist prisoner as a "victim of communism". 🙃

Nice to see the Black Book of Communism making no secret of their nazi sympathies, openly portraying the OUN/UPA terrorists who participated in murdering Jews with the nazis such as in Babi Yar where they set up the syrets concentration camp as heroic victims of 'commies & jews'.

Main writer of the Black Book of Communism alleged 15M for the USSR- the editor added 5M seemingly outta nowhere 🤔🤔
