The wokeist communists are not even embarrassed that they are trying to control unapproved thought.
I would say the whole world is being Sovietized.
What is really sad is that there will be nowhere left run when it is done.
Americans are getting dumber and dumber. Because they sit around with their faces buried in Socialist Media instead of actually getting out and exploring and learning things. Idiocracy was a funny and entertaining documentary. :)
Only Democrats and liberals think communism is great.
Mindless, ignorant, brainwashed idiots are easily led.
Not Sovietized.
The USSR is dead.
ChiCommed.
Ironically, the biggest, most civilized country that actively resists the new woke globalism is Russia itself. I firmly believe that the main reason that Russia and Putin are on the “s***-list” is that they actively resist woke-ism both culturally and politically.
Pravda nye Izvestia and Izvestia nye Pravda.
The Truth isn’t the News and the News isn’t the Truth
Both the NYT and CNN/FOX/NBC/ABC/CBS in soviet days.
Poland and Hungary, for now.
We are way passed that!
“Are Americans Becoming Sovietized?”
No...much worse.
Idiocracy+Elysium+Hunger Games
Yes.
” The Soviets mastered Trotskyization, or the rewriting and airbrushing away of history to fabricate present reality.
Are Americans any different when they indulge in a frenzy of name-changing, statue-toppling, monument-defacing, book-banning and cancel-culturing?”
>>1) There was no escape from ideological indoctrination—anywhere. TV commercials, a job in the bureaucracy, or military assignment all hinged not so much on merit, expertise, or past achievement.
It was there in the 1990s in America.
The Clintons politicized everything. Post office, museums, education, advocacy ads, on down the list. Political correctness too, “dead white males” in academia, pc version of Aesop’s Grasshopper and the Ants, etc.
The term that correctly describes what we are becoming has yet to be invented.
That’s my take on it as well. I think many have not yet realized what amazing and unprecedented social conditions we have ‘achieved’. Sovietized doesn’t sound right when the poorest are the most likely to be obese and are the most passively entertained and least used to sustained physical effort of any poor in history.

If Armageddon is coming, I wish the Lord would hurry up with it. Having to see evil win every day is tiring.
