I'm not sure about your specific views, but my point is that the genocides carried out by the USSR and by China and by other 'Communist' states are bad, and that they don't become any less bad as a consequence of Capitalism also having carried out genocides.

No you're good, just trying to answer.

Yeah, thanks :) I'm not trying to appeal to them directly so much as make sure their claims don't linger unchallenged.
