I mean, if the article ever actually gave "so we think the numbers are probably more like X" then maybe you'd have a point... since instead the article is just "the Official Soviet Numbers are purposely lying to you quite hard" I dunno how you can magic up specific numbers. might as well put...

there's a reason I said that if I wanted to make a serious effort at a precise-ish number I'd be looking at works like "The Gulag Archipelago"

"tended toward" ballpark, off the cuff, throw a random high number estimate. If I was going to do an actual statistical analysis I'd be looking into things like "The Gulag Archipelago". They were certainly closer to "95%" than say, "20%".

...the leader of the Proud Boys is Hispanic last I heard... Also I'd argue that Antifa has pretty thoroughly proven it's own bigotry in how it treats people. Like that time they ganged up on two marines on leave because they answered "yes" to "are you proud?". Or that time Antifa decided that...

first case is one where the mom should have a choice, simply because forcing someone to sacrifice their life for someone else's is immoral. The second case is weird and I don't have a formed opinion on it. The third case is SUPPOSED to be what Charity, Adoption, Foster Care, and Community...
