I'd have assumed at least 100m, maybe 200m, deaths for ol' commies.
Let's say I'm under estimating that by a factor of, say, ten?
Then it's only about even.

I mean you have showed the floor in your own argument. It's an assumption, if you don't have any real evidence then your number is almost worthless.
Flaw. The flaw in my argument.
That was the point. There is no providence given for those numbers, so me pulling some more out of thin air is exactly as valid.
My bad I didn't see the sarcasm. I agree with your point now.
