::Leftists deny genocides all the time.  The North Vietnamese Land Reform, in which 250,000 people were massacred, has been explicitly and in no uncertain terms denied by far-leftists for decades ever since Edwin Moise and Gareth Porter invented the idea of relying entirely and exclusively on official North Vietnamese government Communist propaganda (which was "very informative" and showed "a fairly high level of honesty," according to Moise) and on no other sources at all to evaluate it.  Noam Chomsky, the left's hero, praised Pol Pot and denied the Cambodian Holocaust ("inflated by a factor of a thousand"), adding that everyone Pol Pot killed deserved to die because they were morally lower than Nazi collaborators during the Holocaust.  His millions of cult followers deny the Hue Massacre, the genocide in Bosnia, and the Rwandan Genocide.  For more on this, see the [[Noam Chomsky]] article on Conservapedia.

::The point is, even though the North Vietnamese bloodbath was far worse than the mass killing of Communists by [[Suharto]]; the right never denied the Indonesian massacres.  Not one conservative endorsed official Indonesian estimates of the death toll; not one said the murder of half a million was inflated by a factor of a thousand and that the real toll was about 500 dead.  Instead, conservatives tend to be so thoughtful and scrutinizing that they spend great lengths of time debunking left-wing deniers, and are occassionally so naive as to take their lies at face value.  Conservatives will not indulge in the barbarism, vulgarity, and dishonesty of the left.  Unlike leftists, we do not (in general) simply choose to believe whatever we ''want'' to believe and then try to make reality mold itself to our will regardless of reason, evidence, or logic.  Conservatives may seek counter-propaganda as a refuge from the left's incessant spewing of venemous lies; but in the end we must resign ourselves to acknowledging the crimes of right-wing regimes even if the left denies or blames us for their own excesses (i.e., Hitler, Stalin, Kim Jong-Il and Pol Pot are all right-wingers now, apparently).  Virtually all conservative intellectuals have condemned Suharto, Pinochet, and their ilk.  Let’s not reverse the precedent.[[User:JakeRMurrin|JakeRMurrin]] 01:37, 3 November 2010 (EDT)
