Marxists, Bolsheviks, Leninists, Stalinists, Maoists, Castroists, Che Guevara worshippers, Pol Pot supporters, other fellow travelers who have murdered 100 million people collectively in the name of communism since 1917, were never tried in public
I never forget that millions of victims of communism, including my Dad, died fighting tyranny born by a utopian philosophy. They all clashed with the communist party’s Marxist ideology when they opposed the confiscation of their homes, land, guns, and personal property. They objected to the lack of food, heat, water, proper medical care, medications, human rights, personal freedom, and a decent treatment as human beings.
When Margaret Thatcher once said, “The problem with socialism is that, at some point, you run out of other people’s money,” she was referring to the deliberate attempt by a centralized socialist government to confiscate by various means wealth they viewed as unfairly earned at the expense of the oppressed masses.
Uh No.
Society has roundly condemned the crimes of communism. We may have forgotten those lessons but at one time the condemnation was widespread.
And Thatcher wasn’t referring to just ill gotten gains. Socialism will take everything you make from you and make you destitute and dependent to fund their programs. Doesn’t matter how hard you worked for it.
Today’s Western Communists gave the finger to the victims murdered under godless Communist despots.
There was a photo they took and were proud of.
In high school, they were too busy condemning McCarthyism. Communism was only mentioned to the extent that was needed to explain what McCarthy opposed. But mostly, McCarthy opposed the American way, don’t ya know.
McCarthy was mostly right about all of the accusations against Soviet communist agents. Communism is an un-American activity!
Think about how communism/socialism are accepted in popular society.
Compare it to the popular view on Hitler’s Germany. The Nazi ideology is an automatic loser any time it’s mentioned.
But socialism is considered a badge of honor.
The answer is communism has not been adequately tried and convicted, for its horrible crimes and ideas, in the public square. (Not to mention its low IQ.)
The author is right.
Anti-American, too.
The devil wears Prada... so to speak.
The Left says that wasn’t real Communism.
They were colluding with the KGB. Some on the Left were fully aware of it, others were ignorant Red Dupes.
My Grandfather went through the Russian revolution in Kiev. He said the Russians came on to his parents small family farm, took everything they had while shouting “For The People”
That’s now Kamala Harris’s campaign slogan.
Yes, as proven when Russia released the Verona Files and the MSM yawned.
It was thoroughly convicted when I was growing up. We’ve forgotten.
Like the drug addict with the needle in his arm that says “That’s not my arm.”
That’s why Kamala Harris is losing. She’s a communist.
The low IQ in communism has to do partly with the fact that it never gets anywhere unless it’s hidden from sight. Pretending to be what it’s not.
