My mom brought home a Thermofax copy of the "Communist Rules for Revolution" that was going around her office at work. I was about 9 or 10. I googled it & this looks like what was on it, the best I can remember, although I thought there was more to it. (This is from 1972) http://www.truthmagazine.com/searching-the-scriptures-archives/1972/STS_1972.pdf COMMUNIST RULES FOR REVOLUTION A. Corrupt the young, get them away from religion. Get them interested in sex. Make them superficial, destroy their ruggedness. B. Get control of all means of publicity and thereby: 1. Get people's minds off their government by focusing attention on athletics, sexy books and plays and other trivialities. 2. Divide the people into hostile groups by constantly harping on controversial matters of no importance. 3. Destroy the people's faith in their natural leaders by THE DUSSELDORF PAPERS Jere E. Frost holding the latter up to contempt, ridicule and obloquy. 4. Always preach true democracy, but seize power as fast and as ruthlessly as possible. 5. By encouraging government extravagance, destroy its credit, produce fear of inflation with rising prices and general discontent. 6. Foment unnecessary strikes in vital industries, encour- age civil disorders and foster a lenient and soft atti- tude on the part of government toward such disorders. 7. By specious argument cause the breakdown of the old moral virtues, honesty, sobriety, continence, faith in the pledged word, ruggedness. C. Cause the registration of all firearms on some pretext, with a view to confiscating them and leaving the popula- tion helpless.

Ugh. Sorry! I dunno why it posted like this.

Thanks. That certainly lists what we’ve been seeing!
