OK now defending communism out of nowhere. Weirder and weirder. Yes communism is totalitarian, just ask Saint Lenin.
"The scientific concept, dictatorship, means neither more nor less than unlimited power resting directly on force, not limited by anything, not restrained by any laws or any absolute rules. Nothing else but that."
-- Vladimir Lenin

I'm not defending anything. I'm just providing you some much needed perspective.

Jean-Paul Sartre raped children and denied genocide. End of story. We need hear nothing further from him.

I like quoting Mark Twain as well. Please don't tell me he's done some shady things too... Trust me. If I had been aware of Sartre's misdeeds I wouldn't have quoted him. Provided the child abuse allegations are true. As for his political leanings, I don't really care. But siding with a tyrant and being oblivious to the mass starvation of millions of Ukrainians is unforgivable. Those are things I was unaware of. TIL
