***Can you honestly compare Castro to Stalin or Hitler?Perhaps you know something about him that we don't - then share it with us. Until that time - the answer is "yes". Absolute scale is of little importance.
***What kind of political baggage are you carrying into this?
It is generally called experience and knowledge. Plus information. Something wrong with that?
***All governments are evil.
Are you seriously promoting Anarchy? I do not subscribe to that theory. Your thesis is cynical and could use a lot of help.
***It's inherent.Perhaps it seems so to you, but I do not see much justification for that broad statement.
***You want Genocide?No.
***Talk to the Sioux or the Cherokee. Or was that somehow less evil?
I fail to see how one murder makes another one less grave.
None of your statements so far makes Castro less mass murderer than he is. But maybe I do not understand your sense of scale. Maybe you feel one should go over 10 million to earn that name, I don't know.
