I didn't say anything about support anything, I was commenting on the fact that your comment has in it the inherit assumption that no matter what there's going to be genocide and that somehow the middle road was just a little genocide.
There are a lot of people on the same side when it comes to workers rights and freedom from capitalist oppression, but my short time on lemmy has shown me that a LOT of communists are hostile to everyone that isn't 100% on board with Mao which leaves you pushing away potential allies.
