Elon Musk is not a nazi. While the death toll under communist governments is debated, it is at least in the tens of millions, with 100 million being on the higher end of the estimates. [Link] NEEDS_MORE_RATINGS(22-1-82) Author

Definitions matter here, so lets use some. ~4 million were intentionally executed by the USSR alone in the 20th century. Include policy decisions like Decossackization and you reach 10's of millions.

Criticism of the communist regime is not nazi propaganda, regardless of the person behind it. This is known as a strawman fallacy. Any disagreement should be addressed not based on false allegations. [Link] NEEDS_MORE_RATINGS(7-0-31) Author
