1. U.S. acceptance of coexistence as the only alternative to atomic war.
Right out of the Obama foreign policy playbook.
2. U.S. willingness to capitulate in preference to engaging in atomic war.
See above.
3. Develop the illusion that total disarmament [by] the United States would be a demonstration of moral strength.
See above.
4. Permit free trade between all nations regardless of Communist affiliation and regardless of whether or not items could be used for war.
Bernie Schwartz and Loral, anyone?
5. Extension of long-term loans to Russia and Soviet satellites.
Ok, this didn’t really happen.
6. Provide American aid to all nations regardless of Communist domination.
Keep having even more and more free trade.
7. Grant recognition of Red China. Admission of Red China to the U.N.
Yup. This was probably inevitable, though.
8. Set up East and West Germany as separate states in spite of Khrushchev’s promise in 1955 to settle the German question by free elections under supervision of the U.N.
Ok, this doesn’t apply nowadays.
9. Prolong the conferences to ban atomic tests because the United States has agreed to suspend tests as long as negotiations are in progress.
10. Allow all Soviet satellites individual representation in the U.N.
11. Promote the U.N. as the only hope for mankind. If its charter is rewritten, demand that it be set up as a one-world government with its own independent armed forces. (Some Communist leaders believe the world can be taken over as easily by the U.N. as by Moscow. Sometimes these two centers compete with each other as they are now doing in the Congo.)
Yup.
12. Resist any attempt to outlaw the Communist Party.
13. Do away with all loyalty oaths.
Because loyalty oaths could be perceived as “racist”.
14. Continue giving Russia access to the U.S. Patent Office.
Ok, this didn’t really happen.
15. Capture one or both of the political parties in the United States.
DNC all the way.
16. Use technical decisions of the courts to weaken basic American institutions by claiming their activities violate civil rights.
Legislate from the bench.
17. Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for socialism and current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of teachers’ associations. Put the party line in textbooks.
America bad, white man bad, and Christianity bad. It’s what Obama was schooled in.
18. Gain control of all student newspapers.
19. Use student riots to foment public protests against programs or organizations which are under Communist attack.
Exactly what happened in the 1960s.
20. Infiltrate the press. Get control of book-review assignments, editorial writing, and policymaking positions.
Are there any major newspapers that don’t support the far-left agenda? Write a politically unacceptable book and you don’t get on the TV networks to promote it.
21. Gain control of key positions in radio, TV, and motion pictures.
See above. If you’re not a far-left Democrat who supports the gay agenda, you don’t work in Hollywood.
22. Continue discrediting American culture by degrading all forms of artistic expression. An American Communist cell was told to “eliminate all good sculpture from parks and buildings, substitute shapeless, awkward and meaningless forms.”
What do you think deconstructivist art was?
23. Control art critics and directors of art museums. “Our plan is to promote ugliness, repulsive, meaningless art.”
Plastic crucifix in a jar of urine!
24. Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them “censorship” and a violation of free speech and free press.
Once upon a time, police busted up porn studios. Of course, it would be much harder to do this now with the Internet.
25. Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, radio, and TV.
Again, what do you think Hollywood is about?
26. Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as “normal, natural, healthy.”
Let it all hang out. If it feels good, do it.
27. Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with “social” religion. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity which does not need a “religious crutch.”
Obama sat in just such a “social” church for 20 years.
28. Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the schools on the ground that it violates the principle of “separation of church and state.”
Taken care of in 1963.
29. Discredit the American Constitution by calling it inadequate, old-fashioned, out of step with modern needs, a hindrance to cooperation between nations on a worldwide basis.
See Ruth Bader-Ginsburg referring to the Constitution as a document “frozen in time”.
30. Discredit the American Founding Fathers. Present them as selfish aristocrats who had no concern for the “common man.”
Just some evil old white men who kept slaves.
31. Belittle all forms of American culture and discourage the teaching of American history on the ground that it was only a minor part of the “big picture. Give more emphasis to Russian history since the Communists took over.
Yeah, American history was nothing but killing Indians and enslaving blacks. We get it. I think we know enough about Russian history from 1917-1991 to realize why we do not want that in America.
32. Support any socialist movement to give centralized control over any part of the culture — education, social agencies, welfare programs, mental health clinics, etc.
Department of Education, DHHS, DHUD, etc.
33. Eliminate all laws or procedures that interfere with the operation of the Communist apparatus.
Amazingly, you still can’t work in the FBI, CIA, Secret Service, or Army Special Ops if you are a known Marxist.
34. Eliminate the House Committee on Un-American Activities.
Done in the 1970s. At least the CPUSA used the committee’s correct name here.
35. Discredit and eventually dismantle the FBI.
Not quite accomplished yet.
36. Infiltrate and gain control of more unions.
Most unions (eg. the UAW) aren’t communist, they’re just a buncha greedy pigs who want $50 an hour plus benefits to work an assembly line. Now the SEIU are total commies.
37. Infiltrate and gain control of big business.
Why do you have businesses wanting more and more and more free trade? And you need only look at the big media conglomerates and their politics.
38. Transfer some of the powers of arrest from the police to social agencies. Treat all behavioral problems as psychiatric disorders which no one but psychiatrists can understand [or treat].
Aw, that poor gangbanger was just a victim of racism.
39. Dominate the psychiatric profession and use mental health laws as a means of gaining coercive control over those who oppose Communist goals.
A favorite tactic in the Soviet Union. Hasn’t quite happened here, but antidepressants are making it close.
40. Discredit the family as an institution. Encourage promiscuity and easy divorce.
Again, why not do it in the road?
41. Emphasize the need to raise children away from the negative influence of parents. Attribute prejudices, mental blocks and retarding of children to suppressive influence of parents.
It takes a village of mean-faced, clip-haired lesbians to raise a child.
42. Create the impression that violence and insurrection are legitimate aspects of the American tradition; that students and special-interest groups should rise up and use [”] united force [”] to solve economic, political or social problems.
Bring it all down, man! Death to pigs!
43. Overthrow all colonial governments before native populations are ready for self-government.
You can see how well Africa managed after independence.
44. Internationalize the Panama Canal.
Taken care of by Jimmy Carter.
45. Repeal the Connally Reservation so the United States cannot prevent the World Court from seizing jurisdiction over domestic problems. Give the World Court jurisdiction over nations and individuals alike.
Obama would love to do this, I’m sure.
