            Wars especially world wars are a whole lot more involved than just killing politicians. And not every party not even the victors stand to gain anything more than they loose

              the Russian and Cuban systems primarily changed due to modernization and not anything the system did (don’t make the liberal mistake of assuming the advances of modernity are inherent to the system at the time), but China actually got Worse until it “liberalized” its markets and started pulling foreign capital investment

                  it’s important to look at these kinds of numbers in context, the average life expectancy for the vast majority of Mao’s rule was around 30, only going up to 50-60 in the last few years, still lagging behind even the farther east soviet provinces

              Yes, but transforming power structures doesn’t equate to killing opponents. It is neither sufficient nor necessary. The success of some revolutions shouldn’t be attributed to lethal violence.
