I get that sort of response a lot from people of the Left today.I already did. It is not worth arguing.
Look I am not going to reads through two whole threads looking for something like you have described. If this is your evidence, please show me where you Identify your people as Catholic Conservatives and tell me what posts I should be looking at.In the first thread, there were numerous people endorsing Pinochet and Franco.
In the broader sense if there are some people who support decades old regimes for whatever historical context and if they did identify as
Catholic Conservatives you are still a long way from making any sense with your question :
Your question makes no sense and as I have said it dehumanises Catholic Conservatives and really betrays an incredible position without any merit.What is the alternative to liberal democracy does these conservative Catholics envision? Do they want a military junta run by Catholics that actively tortures and murders those who promote values opposed to conservative Catholicism and the interests of economic elite?
You’ve asked me for the number of dead people under certain regimes and asked me to provide evidence. Straight answer, no I am not going to. You brought these regimes into the discussion and I have asked you why you are talking about these regimes. If I ask you to tell me how many monkeys there are in Bali and provide evidence I would expect you to ask me the same question - What are you talking about? I wouldn’t expect you to go and look up evidence for something when I haven’t answered the question on why I changed the discussion to Balinese monkeys. It is your point, or would-be point (you haven’t yet made it). Please make the point of why we are talking about those regimes.Answer the question and use evidence.
Why am I noting this? Again I have asked you why you are talking about these regimes. I asked if your reason was to show there are terrible regimes other than Left wing dictatorships but you didn’t answer. I really don’t know what you are talking about. You have to make a point rather than bring new things up and ask the other person to provide evidence or to ask the other person to note things without making points or asking people to read through two whole threads to find cases of something you have said which doesn’t really address your original text anyway.Please note the Poland and East Germany are not run by people sympathetic to communism. The government could look in the archives to see how many people (including priests) were murdered by the Jaruzelski or Honecker.
You have to make points. You have to actually say something.
