> communism was still much better than what came before.
hahahaha another apologist is trying to say that communism in the great leap forward with deaths of 45M+ people is somehow much better than the sino-japanese war (1937-1945), the so-called "what came before (communism)", with 32M combined military and civilian casualties, by citing a source who's never being part of the great leap forward by leaving the communism china early. give me a break.
