The Black Book of Communism counts Nazi soldiers killed on the eastern front, Soviet soldiers and civillians killed by Nazis on the eastern front, and all the hypothetical unborn children of the dead on both sides as "victims of Communism."
Of course, all the people currently living in tent cities a few blocks from my apartment in Free America are simply homeless because they're dumb individual people who made dumb individual choices. All the people struggling to put food on the table simply didnt work hard enough. Don't ask why it seems to be happening to everyone all at once though, that's communist talk.
Does anyone still believe this? It's been debunked so many times.
