"The three deadliest events in human history were all infectious diseases," says medical historian David Morens: the Spanish flu, the Black Death (bubonic plague), and AIDS...

AIDS?

I don't think so.

Smallpox killed 300-500 million people in the 20th century alone. To say nothing of malaria.

Collectivist ideology killed 100 million during that same time frame. It's poised to do even more in the 21st century. It's a disease (of the mind) that needs to be stopped, too.
