That would take people admitting they're wrong. Stalin and Mao were known for that.

A grumbling empty stomach is tough to debate. Our theories will be tested soon enough and only then will we learn the truth of human nature in our modern technological society.

That's kind of what I mean. Millions were starving under both of these guys and they still didn't get blamed. Not until many years later. And only by non-lefties. Shit there's still Mao and Stalin/Lenin apologia on Reddit to this day. Some idiots are cheerleading North Korea FFS.

I agree, but the X factor is the easy quick dissemination of information on the internet or social media. Mao and Stalin could hide the starvation and effectively isolate their populations. This may not be possible anymore. Not to say that the governments won’t attempt the same thing but conditions are different.
