I very much enjoy watching all of these videos, so thank you for making them, however... 12:14 So the loss of the Aral sea was a result of Communism rather than a result of 20th century ignorance and over usage of scarce water resources? The eventual disappearance of the Dead Sea in Israel also the work of Communism? Is the fact that the American Great Plains, has lost over 50 miles of farmlands, to the Central Desert, a result of Communist conspiracies, as well? I like your videos but your knee jerk reaction to blame everything on Communism tends to feel a bit like a crutch.

@FilmCritictheone Not debating that the communists have done poorly in resource management. China is hand pollinating half of their fruit because they wiped out their bee population with pesticides and are now attempting to introduce foreign bees to restore their ecosystem. However blaming the communists for everything, is a crutch, when everyone else was doing the same thing. Here in Los Angeles, they literally took spent nuclear fuel rods, paved it over with cement and put housing on it. People are dumb. But Soviets this and Communists that, is a weak argument, when China is becoming the biggest green energy producer on the planet. He should dig deeper.

@FilmCritictheone According to the EPA, the U.S. generates 15% of the world's greenhouse emissions, and China generates 30%. China is 20% of the world's population and the U.S. is 4%. After your 1st sentence, I gave up on reading the rest. Having an honest debate, is only possible if everyone is being honest. Happy Easter!!
