Topping the list of the century's worst butchers are the Russians and Chinese, along with their assorted statist cousins. Collectively, since the time of the Bolsheviks' coup in 1917, the Communist bosses have slaughtered 100 million people. In grave detail, The Black Book of Communism (Harvard University Press, 1999) provides a tally of the "politically correct" mass murders, the deaths from firing squads, man-made famines, gassing, hanging, concentration camps: China, 65 million deaths; USSR, 20 million; Vietnam, North Korea and Cambodia, 5 million; Africa, 1.7 million; Afghanistan, 1.5 million; Eastern Europe, 1 million; Latin America, 150,000 deaths. >From day one, the extreme centralism imposed by Communist regimes was a highly deadly enterprise. In just two months in 1918 the Bolsheviks executed more than twice as many political opponents as the czars had in the previous century. Starting on the day they shot their way to power, the Bolsheviks put their lust for violence on full display, dragging tens of thousands of their fellow citizens to the firing squads--prisoners captured in the civil war, clergy, nobles, military officers, policemen, the "bourgeois intelligensia," rich peasants, capitalists, and, finally, the rebellious workers and poor peasants and anyone else who dared to protest in the streets. The purification drive of the collectivist mind, the messianic re-making of human nature, the suppression of private property, profit and freedom, and, most of all, the choking of individualism, required that they all be shot like dogs. They became "enemies of the people," or "noxious insects," as Lenin said early on, inaugurating Communism's animalization of its opponents. This bloody orgy was a pure exercise in "class genocide," asserts Stephane Courtois, the ex-Trotskyite editor of "The Black Book" and historian of the French Communist party, a reign of political carnage of planetary dimensions, a massacre designed to create a moral society through the extermination of the impure, through the silencing of any who stood in the path of a classless, propertyless and egalitarian utopia.
