If you scratch deeper in that argument, you’ll find sighs that “the Soviets meant us no harm”, “We had missiles pointed at them too”.
Communist sympathizers are nothing new to this country. They’ve been here for the better part of a century. They will deny their loyalties to Communism and Mother Russia, though.
If they think that Communism is such a good system and that Castro and Chavez are maligned, why not move? And if these leaders aren’t instituting REAL Communism, why not work within these nations to bring about Reform/Orthadox Communism? Why change the American system? Because it poses an obstacle to global socialist takeover.
From The Secret to the Suicidal Liberal Mind:
It is possible to perceive the passions of the Left as frenzies of masochism. What could be more idiotic and masochistic than to oppose missile defense? This opposition cannot be understood unless one dispenses with its rhetoric and rationales and realizes that these folks at their emotional core do not want their country defended.The lunacy of the "global warming" hoax cannot be comprehended other than that its masochistic advocates do not want their civilization to prosper. The culture-destroying immigration policies that Pat Buchanan warns are causing "The Death of the West" were put in place by those who do not want their culture to survive.
