>[IDEOLOGY] killed millions
or
>[WEAPON] killed millions
I can't tell.
Either instance attempts to push the burden of responsibility off of humans and onto something more abstract.

Ideology always because without the idea the weapon would never be used to enforce the ideology. Without the weapon the followers of the ideology would adapt to find a new weapon or way to get what they want.
Ideology ofc

I was asking which implication was worse, hence the greentext. You guys are saying that ideology actually kills people, not that the implication that ideology kills people is dumb, which was the quesiton.
Which implication is more stupid?
Ideas kill people.
Objects kill people.
I think both are rooted in a fundamental fallacy that attributes the responsibility of actions to forces outside of the people committing the action.
