‘Human Suffering’: Republican Gov. Declares July ‘Victims Of Communism Month’
Daily Caller ^ | 07/07/2021 | SHAKHZOD YULDOSHBOEV

Republican Nebraska Gov. Pete Ricketts has designated July as the Victims of Communism Remembrance Month, a Wednesday report shows.

Ricketts’ announcement coincided with celebratory events in China dedicated to the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) 100th anniversary, Fox News reported.

“The Chinese Communist Party is recognizing their 100th anniversary, and they are going to talk about all the things the Chinese Communist Party has done in a very positive light. But it’s also important to remember that whenever communism has been implemented across this world, what he have seen is a lot of human suffering,” the governor told Fox News.

The communist regime in China is still committing atrocities, including the Uyghur genocide, inhumane treatment of Tibetans, people in Hong Kong and persecution of religious groups like Falun Gong, Ricketts said.

He also added that apart from human rights violations, the CCP engages in intellectual property theft, posing a threat to the safety of people living beyond the confines of the country controlled by the communist party.

Very important to note who screams about this, or deflects.

Including here.

100 Years of Communism—and 100 Million Dead

The Bolshevik plague that began in Russia was the greatest catastrophe in human history.

How about combining June “Pride Month” with July “Victims Of Communism Month”? Then the Democrats and other leftists could have a “Proud of Communism” month.

You are correct. This is Never Trump bullshit trying to embrace some sort of traditional measure of conservatism instead of what the rank and file wants for conservatism, namely:

Drain the Swamp
Build the Wall
America First In All Things
Pro Life
Pro Guns.

More or less in that order. THAT is Conservatism. Not “cut taxes so the Chamber of Commerce is funded in their efforts to bring in illegals. Not career politicians who never gave a damn about American jobs going to China.

Conservatism is that list above. Who does not and HAS not embraced it, is not Conservative.

What a great concept.
I think the majority of Americans, in their humdrum everyday routine, never give a thought to things like the CCP.
This is bound to start at least a few people thinking.

Good move. People need to know what Communism does in practice-Then maybe they will stop voting Democrat.
