    There’s a logical fallacy going on here that I don’t know the name for, but basically: who says there needs to be any genocide? Why is genocide a constant present in all aspects of that spectrum?

      The logical fallacy was committed by you when you equivocated with zero support, Communism and “The Free Market.” The free market has never existed except as a thought experiment so that market economists can try to model what effects supply and demand would have on a frictionless market. It’s equivalent to physics classes where you ignore air-resistance and friction. No one claims physics is a fairy-tale and it would be absurd to claim that market economics and physics are both fairy-tales for “exactly the same reason.”

      Communism on the other hand is a well-defined and studied economic system, and aspects of that economic system exist in every country on earth.
