Both systems promise that a slaughter is necessary but also promise its end. Both systems invariably keep the first promise and violate the second.
In revealing the commonalities of the Reds and the Greens in the Red-Green Axis, we have elucidated their shared goals of violence, wealth redistribution, inequality before the law, a binary world, monopoly rule by the elites, and controlling the totality of society. Here we explore the promise of transitional phase slaughter.
Both Islamic political systems and Marxist-Leninist communism make two promises about the violent neutralization of internal rivals. The first is that it will happen: a transitional phase, necessary to secure the new order. The second is that it will end: temporary by design, giving way once the order is secure.
Both systems keep the first promise and break the second.
Marxism states both explicitly. Islamic political theory implies them structurally. Neither system’s own history shows the second promise kept. In both, what was authorized as a passing emergency became, in practice, a standing condition, reopened by each generation against a new list of names.
Marx and Engels wrote that between capitalist and communist society lies a transition period in which the state can be nothing but the revolutionary dictatorship of the proletariat. Lenin, in The State and Revolution, built an entire argument on the promise attached to that dictatorship: it is temporary by definition because the state itself will “wither away” once class antagonism is eliminated and coercion becomes unnecessary. This is not a minor clause. It is the doctrine’s central justification for tolerating the dictatorship at all.
The Bolsheviks began implementing their slaughter within a year of taking power: the September 5, 1918, Decree on Red Terror, which ordered class enemies isolated in concentration camps and authorized summary execution

Barack 0bama’s friend, Bill Ayres, and the Weather Underground thought they would need to eliminate 250,000 for their revolution to work.
You need another comma, and three more zeros.
Sorry you are right, 25,000,000. Twenty Five million or ten percent of the population at the time.
The Muslim Manifesto. It is the plan. The MoFos exist to implement the plan.
Why can’t they just kill each other and leave the Christians and Jews alone?
Christians and Jews produce wealth and innovation...always have been
Lenin. Stalin. Mao. Pol Pot. Castro. Etcetera.
They all do it. Wholesale population slaughter is part of the communist dream.
I read it was 25 MILLION who needed to be killed.
Yes, I corrected it in post #4.
25million would only be starters.
The only thing that connects Islam and Marxism together today is their common enemy - western civilization embodied in the west, especially the US.
Once it is defeated then they’ll go after each other hammer and tong.
Their only commonality is their common enemy. Trying to go to great lengths in coming up with anything else like this article does is a waste of time.
It’s simply a temporary marriage of convenience.
Their logical premise is very simple - both promise you will have peace on earth when all opposition is removed. Hard to argue with that. If everyone agrees on everything all the time (no opposition) then you got true peace. (boring as hell, but peaceful)
The only problem with that is human nature. Humans cannot be made to all think alike, thus you will always have opposition and thus you will never ever have peace on earth.
The messy system of constitutional democracy we have in the west is probably the best one can do.
A wise, benevolent dictator would be better, but they don’t come along too often and when they die they’ll be more than likely followed by an evil tyrant.
