Have you considered that "totalitarianism" isn't as useful or meaningful of a label as you think it is? The Saudi Arabians have an authoritarian king, that clearly means monarchism and communism are pretty much the exact same thing, huh?
Slightly different flavor = nations living in impoverished, depressed squalor and enduring massive famines versus nations being revitalized and rebuilt into the most prosperous societies on their continent?
The fuck are you talking about?
The fact that capitalism is quite literally written into communist theory. A fundamental aspect of it, in fact.
And the fact that democracy is the one that's actually helped communism gain power anywhere (an enormous amount of power, as well).
Can you explain how huge civil wars and great depressions are "easier" than bribing some politicians? If they're so much easier for duping the masses, why's it democracy that dominates the world?
