>my point was precisely same as yours, none of those claims about deaths caused by Stalin or any other communists has any proof.


Of course they do.

I quickly looked up something that called common estimates "overblown" and even while saying that Stalin didn't kill nearly as many people as they say he did, the person says that

>Stalin more or less deliberately caused the deaths of about 8–9 million people: 5 million in the collectivization famines of the early 1930s (thereof 3.3 million in Ukraine), 1 million people executed (thereof 681,692 in the 1937/38 purge) and 2–3 million deaths in labor camps and exile colonies.


So that's even from someone kind of defending Stalin.

If you're saying these events that are part of the public record didn't happen, you're straying into the kind of thinking of Holocaust deniers...

>there is no need to convince anyone of anything like that the moment when the state will stop enforcing property rights with police violence property right will stop existing. Again copyright is a perfect example when nobody gives a shit about your imaginary rights or your claim because there is no police which will come and put us in jail.


So you're imagining a world where people can just be assholes, walk into your house and take things, kick you out of your own house if they're stronger, where anyone can do whatever they feel like, because nobody will ever be punished for breaking a law because there's nobody to enforce any rules.

I guess you're right, then. Artists won't care about getting paid for art because they'll be too busy trying to keep violent sociopaths from stealing their stuff to even make art.


>I don't see any problems in that the fact that your work is valued does not mean that you have to be compensated for that in any way.


That's a pretty weak form of "value", is what I'm saying. You like something, but you don't want to have to go to any effort or sacrifice to get it. So if you weren't able to get it without giving anything in exchange, you would just do without. That doesn't sound like you like the art THAT much. It also in no way acknowledges the time, effort and practice an artist goes to in order to produce interesting art. I simply don't get any sense that you really feel much value in artists or their work.
