A one-minute video of psychologist Jordan Peterson answering leftists who claim that real communism has never been tried.
Yes. It was recorded before Clonazepam almost killed him.
Exactly right.
Interesting how so many say “Real Communist Socialism has never been tried, but WE will do it right the next time!”
Yet no one says “REAL Nationalist Socialism has never been tried, but WE will do it right the next time!”
ONCE was enough doe that. You would think they would learn from the constant failures of Communism.
Ha! I had forgotten about that one. Thanks.
I like that! Must have!
Link?
My first challenge would be to any of them......
Pick a place. Any place. And we’ll allow your little experiment. Do it. Recruit fellow communists to come to wherever. Let them all work for the State and wait for the handouts from the State. Round up your college professors and college student communists and live it out.
They wouldn’t last a month.
And they’re being indoctrinated but the ultimate in hypocrisy.
College professors, who make a very nice living, work 2-3 days a week, eventually get funds so they can’t be fired and who never take a pay cut because tuition is raised instead, summers off, nice breaks between semesters.
What’s not to love?
I worked seven long months in communist China from Oct 1976 to April 1977. I got there two weeks after Mao died, at the tail end of the Cultural Revolution. When I left, I knew that EVERY American needs to spend a year in their late teens to early 20s in a communist country.
The construction superintendent at the main site I worked at was a die-hard Democrat and was ecstatic that Carter won that fall. I remember how apropos it was that he was working in a communist country.
That’s one of his best lectures. People were both laughing and crying at the same timenumerous times. He was giving them both barrels that night.
Hail Lobster !

Meat and potatoes!! 35 minutes you will consider well spent. For a self proclaimed liberal in his youth, this is what happens when you use your brain like you are supposed to. This is why he is thrown in with the far right. He has seen the stupid, and it is us!
l8er
I got sick and tired of seeing those stupid Che T-Shirts so I made one with a Real Revolutionary whose Revolution worked. (George Washington of course!)
He touches on the key point: if you aren’t a clever, ruthless murderer, then you won’t GET to be in charge of a Communist state, or at least not for very long.
That has been true throughout all history up until the founding of the USA. You really don’t appreciate how unique and successful the USA is until you contemplate the long record of peaceful transition of power (as flawed as it has been with Hillary Clinton and Biden).
I started watching “Rome” last night. When Emperor Marcus Aurelius was away fighting the Germanic tribes, he took ill. Riders were dispatched to Rome with the news but it got turned into rumor that he had died. Then the jockeying started for control of the empire. Usually when an emperor dies, his enemies dispatched the entire family of the deceased empower.
Brutal power has ruled mankind for millennia. Perhaps that more than anything is what worries me about Democrats and the Deep State. They are going after Trump now for “crimes” they are concocting before he was elected. It’s the modern form of dispatching the emperor.
That is a great emblem-nice job!
Fills my heart with admiration, not black hate when I see it.
They need to be punched in the face these Professors. They are doing tremendous damage to this country because now we are seeing the results of what happens to these kids they graduate: They end up in important positions like politics and Congress like AOC or in big tech or the media which is why we have all these Marxists now who censor, ban or twist the news not to mention commit outright election fraud.
This is going to take a huge effort to correct, if it even can be. The entire nation is going to have to stand up against this crap and it’s too bad Trump still isn’t in office because he did mention a few times going after these Professors by cutting off fed money. This is really really bad because every year is another round of Marxists being produced like an assembly line from these universities and they are thrown into society ready to produce more cancer and there’s going to come a point where it’s going to be impossible to stop and we will become a commie country.
