The psychocide of Pitești is the distilled essence of communism - John Carter

[Kamerad]

A horrifying glimpse into the depths of what communists will do to those that resist communism.

“What it lacked in scale and duration, Pitești more than made up in psychological sadism. It plumbed infernal depths that I have never encountered elsewhere in the history of mankind. The communists sought not merely to break the bodies of their subjects. Nor was their goal only to shatter their minds. Their objective was to smash men’s souls, to strip them of absolutely everything – faith, nation, family, will, self-respect, identity – that made them individual human beings. They sought to scratch out the Imago Dei.

When you think of communism, don’t think of bread lines, famines, anemic economic growth, clunky consumer goods, or ugly buildings built with substandard concrete. Don’t think of fucking statistics.

Think of Pitești.

Pitești reveals the spiritual essence of communism in is purest, most distilled form.”

We, humans, can do some evil shit to each other

The resemblance of this tale to that of a CIA black site during GWOT should not go unnoticed. A bunch of Americans gave their government a blank check to practice this stuff and it's eventually going to come back to bite us in the ass.

Yep......and if you really think about it, you can probably find the evil shit you have done to others as well. Likely not intended, but still done!

If you read the linked article, you’ll find a categorically different ‘evil’ than what you’re describing. I suggest you use another word, or elaborate on your point.
