It shouldn't bring you comfort. Don't let yourself forget that more than a hundred million were killed directly by followers of Marx and that continues into the 21st century, albeit less directly. I'm not telling you what you should think here nor what you should read however the real world implications whould scare you and that comfort that you feel should be something that you should try to side step or at least unsettle yourself be reading oppossing philosophy and writings. At the very least looking at other ideologies will help you understand why it is giving you comfort and why that should be not such a good thing.

If we're going that route, 100 million is way less than the hundreds of millions by capitalist countries. Also, Stalinism and Maoism are not Marxism, they are separate ideologies (for example, Stalin's "socialism in one country" is not part of Marxist ideology).

I don't know why you're waiting on the government to do that for you. Why don't you distribute your own wealth to those who are needlessly dying?
