You have not done much to explicate your longer multi purpose postings. And your most recent one above is a combination of one maleficent writer's screeds with various different historical occurrences which makes a chaos of all details. Your attitude is very much Trump-like in that you seize upon any thing at any time to obfuscate the issue. Which makes your own postings vis-a-vis the Irish famine ludicrous.

For the record, and mentioned elsewhere in Mudcat, King Leopold's horrendous legacy in the Congo was primarilly his alone. The 'Belgian' Congo was HIS possession. Gallant Little Belgium wasn't innit.

The Communist legacies in Russia, China, North Korea, Cambodia, and now Venezuela were cases of organizational imposition of theory over practice "the imposed or planned economy", and a consistent refusal to learn from mistakes. And an all-too-usual resort to state violence to impose the will of a minority of powerful people in the guise of a ruling party where only one party was allowed to exist.
