the normal way of asking people to take a subject off-list is to ask
something along the lines of 'please take this subject off-list'. In
general this is quite a mature list in which people recognise the error
of their ways, and shut up when asked to.

Instead you posted a highly provocative reply which has already resulted
in several additional posts from people who don't know whether or not you
believe what you wrote. I assume you do, and I note that 'smashing soapboxes'
is an activity very popular among fascists of both the right and the
left.

Furthermore, the very brief discussion about the number of people killed in
the 20th century was a counter argument to the idea that previous
centuries were as grim as it gets and that somehow we're all living in
a utopia. This is not the other side of the coin to your revolting
expressions of opinion.
