I don't claim to be an expert, just somebody with thoughts and opinions. It was a response to someone saying I was uninformed. I am not uninformed, I am well educated on the topic.

Like most people, I am not an expert in most things, only in a very narrow subset of things. My expertise lies in some areas of technology, not really elsewhere. There is a vast gap between being an expert and being uninformed, it's not a binary distinction.

> Every time? Nonsense: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Women_and_children_first has multiple documented examples to the contrary.

I think it was clear that my statement of 'every time' was not to be taken literally.

I don't think we're going to construct a well-supported moral framework defined in the most literal terms in the context of a set of comments on a website.

Nothing anyone has responded to me with in any way supports the idea that communism is something that aligns with reality and is anything more than a fantasy for idealists.
