So it is not just the soviet implimentation of communism, it is a worldwide phenomenon. Most of those people would have lived out their lives if communism had not existed. To say that it is the implimentation of communism that caused the problem not communism itself is like saying that paedophilia is not the problem it's just the implimentation of paedophilia.
How can you compare that to the idealogy of everyone being equal? You could say the same thing about religious wars or indeed any war. War is not evil just the implementation. Taxes aren't evil just the implementation. Privatisation isn't desiasterous for the railways - just the implementation.

I'm sure when Marks developed the idea, secret police and cold war were not in his plan.
Communism is not the evil - it's human selfishness.
