The 5 Step Communist Genocide Playbook

This documentary examines the systematic patterns of Communist genocides throughout the 20th century, analyzing how ideologically-driven regimes employed a consistent five-step methodology to eliminate perceived enemies. Understanding these mechanisms illuminates one of history's darkest chapters: the deaths of approximately 100 million people under Communist rule. The Five-Step Pattern of Communist Genocide: Communist regimes from the Soviet Union to Cambodia, Ethiopia to Laos, followed remarkably similar trajectories in pursuing mass killings. This wasn't coincidental coordination but rather the natural consequence of shared ideological foundations that viewed entire classes, ethnic groups, and political opponents as existential threats requiring elimination. Step 1 - Identification: Communist regimes designated "enemies of the people" based primarily on class status—landowners, businessmen, religious leaders, intellectuals, and former officials. The Bolsheviks' 1917 proclamations against "high-ranking functionaries" established templates replicated across Communist states. Ethnic minorities seeking independence were reframed as "capitalist traitors" and "imperialist stooges," disguising racial persecution as ideological necessity. Step 2 - Isolation: Victims were separated physically through deportation and socially through propaganda labeling them as "class enemies" and "running dogs of imperialism." The Hmong genocide in Laos exemplifies this: an entire ethnic group declared hostile, moved to isolated villages, and cut off from international observation before systematic extermination began. Step 3 - Preparation: Stalin's 1929 order to liquidate kulaks as a class demonstrates genocidal organization: victims categorized, lists compiled, state machinery mobilized. Soviet authorities sorted 71,000 kulak families into three categories determining whether they'd face execution, deportation, or confiscation, creating blueprints that led to 1.8 million deportations and half a million deaths. Step 4 - Extermination: Methods varied—firing squads, forced labor camps, deliberate starvation, torture—but occurred across all Communist genocides. Ethiopia's Qey Shibir unleashed both military forces and civilian death squads called Kebele, executing hundreds of thousands through mass shootings, burnings, and the infamous "Mengistu Bowtie" strangulation method. Step 5 - Denial: Communist governments systematically suppressed evidence, censored victims, and reframed mass murder as justified punishment against "dangerous reactionaries." China's ongoing cultural genocide in Tibet exemplifies this: 100,000+ deaths denied, journalists blocked, and policies simultaneously defended as both punishment and improvement for Tibetans. Case Study - Cambodia: Pol Pot's Khmer Rouge murdered 2 million people (25-33% of Cambodia's population) between 1975-1979, following all five steps with devastating precision. The regime identified enemies (intellectuals, religious minorities, ethnic Vietnamese), isolated them through mass deportations, organized systematic sorting, executed through killing fields and S-21 prison camp horrors, then denied atrocities with support from allies like China and Western apologists including Noam Chomsky. This analysis reveals how ideological frameworks can systematize genocide, transforming abstract political theory into concrete mechanisms of mass death—a pattern with continued relevance as Communist governments remain in power today.
