"Alexander Dolgun's story: An American in the Gulag" is another great book showing how brutal life can be.

"The classes and the races too weak to master the new conditions of life must give way." ... "They must perish in the revolutionary holocaust." - Karl Marx
Everyone should watch this movie - especially people that think that socialism is a benign idea.
I feel like you are all somehow far from the truth.
I live in Moldova, a state that appeared as a consequence of the Ribbentrop-Molotov pact (also known as the Stalin-Hitler pact). We had the Communist Party ruling our country until 2 years ago.
I've been talking to both Romanian (Fascist) and Russian (Soviet) soldiers, and they all agree, both Nazism and Communism are socialistic regimes. I strongly recommend "The Soviet Story", watching it might clear your views.
