There's the problem right there. He FELT they were less rascist than the United States. He didn't bother to do some research into Soviet rascism so that he could THINK something on the subject, he just listened to the propaganda and went with his "feelings".
What a loser.
The Abraham Lincoln Brigade and other members of the Commie Loyalist faction in the Spanish Civil War fought against Francisco Franco’s attempt to restore stability to the anarchy the Spain had become.
Commies, Anarchists and other Leftists were carrying out anti-property, anti-capitalist, anti-religious attacks on All the institutions that make for a stable social order. General Franco wisely saw the need to act and restore order. Those who fought against him were either conscious members of the conspiracy or useful idiots. Thank G_d General Franco was able to prevail and save Spain from Communism.
ONE MORE “S” IN THE USA
Put one more S in the U.S.A.
To make it Soviet.
One more S in the U.S.A.
Oh, we’ll live to see it yet.
When the land belongs to the farmers
And the factories to the working men—
The U.S.A. when we take control
Will be the U.S.S.A. then. …
But we can’t join hands together
So long as whites are lynching black,
So black and white in one union fight
And get on the right track.
By Texas, or Georgia, or Alabama led
Come together, fellow workers
Black and white can all be red:
Put one more S in U.S.A.
—Langston Hughes, c. 1932
When I joined the US Air Force in 1968, they had a long list of “Where you ever a member of...”. The Abraham Lincoln Brigade was one of them. Sure would like to have a copy of that list now. Guess when the O’Baminates are done with us, Freepers will be on a new list, too. ;o)
