Such killing tendencies are not tied to any one ideology so why does the article mention it? In any case, I'm glad he's already doing life in prison.

The Black Book of Communism
What Communism is today is NOT what Karl Marx had in mind. He and Lenin had the idea of a Utopian, Classless society where everybody benefited. It was wonderful in theory and even got off to a good start, but eventually Stalin and Co. warped and demonized it to the point it is what it is today.

Marxism =/= Communism. That only happened as a result of Marx's dream and legacy being shattered by the corruption of power.

Though I won't doubt that book is a good read.
