"...Mao killed the counter-revolutionaries wholesale in China racking up 60,000,000 dead in the last 70 years. It’s the communist way!!..."

C'mon, man.

In Mao's defense, some of those 60 million were eaten by their fellow peasants to avoid death by starvation.

Wait, did I just sorta defend Mao? That makes me barf in my mouth a little.

Good point! 60,000,000 would be a lot of killing for just one guy! I guess you can’t make an omelette without breaking a few eggs! Eh, comrade!? :)

I’ve always sort of looked at this like when the security guard has a heart attack when you rob a back. They still charge you with the murder, don’t they?
