      That is one of the more honest examples of what they do.

      You want dishonest?

      They count the difference between expected birthrate and actual birthrate.

      War causes people to have less babies? Each baby not born = 1 death caused by communism.

      Worse then dead, they never were.

        Better sex education, access to contraception/abortion, and generally women having more control over when they have children/how many children they want to have under socialism was claimed to have taken “victims” too. Because if you’re not accidentally getting pregnant at 19 with no recourse other than giving birth to children you didn’t want, that’s oppression by a totalitarian dictator.
