So yes, there is a double standard because communism is seen as having "progressive" goals. And yes, the Soviet regime engaged in mass murder on a Nazi-like scale. But that hardly justifies Gibson's comments.

Let me see if I get this:

1. Gibson is criticised for thinking that the Nazi attrocities were horrible and ghastly, but, - maybe -, in a century of mass murder on an even larger scale by the Soviets and Chinese, not uniquely horrible
2. Evidence is provided that, yes indeed, the Soviets and Moaists did in fact commit systematic mass murder on a scale even larger than the Nazis
3. Evidence is provided that there is a double standard with respect to mass killings by the Commies, as opposed to their brother socialists the Nazis, the Marxist bastards being given an unwarrented pass because they commited genocide for "progressive" reasons
4. The author seems to accept that the issues noted in points 2 and 3 are in fact accurate
5. Therefore, the author concludes that Gibson's position in point 1 is horribly wrong

Have I missed anything?

Or have I correctly summed up this rancid dingbat's position?

You forgot the implication that Gibson started the "controversy" and it's all his fault...if I remember correctly, it was a couple PC liberal people working for the US Bishops who started it, and who not only stole the script but made out as if they were speaking in the name of all the US bishops...

>>Have I missed anything?<<

You missed the revolution called political-correctness that swamped America over the past 30 years.

Some lives are more valuable than others. Didn't you know that?

The lives of the 9 million Ukranians murdered by Stalin, or the 30 million murdered by Mao, do not count.

They were collateral damage in the cause for "social justice".
