There has been plenty of communist-inspired violent terrorism. Germany&#x27;s RAF, Italy&#x27;s Red Brigade, Japan&#x27;s United Red Army, Peru&#x27;s Shining Path, Columbia&#x27;s FARC, Sri Lanka&#x27;s Tamil Tigers, etc. etc. Saying these are not real communists is just a No True Scotsman. As soon as people start believing in utopias there&#x27;s a danger that they will cross a line.
