Article deserves a Yuri Bezmenov bump.

Gee, the bullet holes in Nicolae Ceausescu’s head looked pretty real...

[Carry_Okie]

Yep.

[ColdSteelTalon]

The short answer is YES !!!

[unkus]

And the evil bastard in our White House looks pretty real...

[petitfour]

OK. Who’s the conspiracy theory infiltrator posting this stuff on FR?????? This article is designed to draw out the kooks who believe in this stuff. I just know it. Really.

Limbaugh warned us from the beginning that Communism wasn’t DEAD... it just moved to USA and Hid in the ENVIRONMENTAL MOVEMENT.

[devere]

completely ridiculous.

Russia and China are now capitalist in their fashion.

The communists became journalists, environmentalists and Democrats and took over the USA. Now we’re attempting a counterrevolution. It’s all quite obvious.

[Dallas59]

Couldn’t get us the old way...had to try another. Looks like the new way is working.

[Cold Heat]

You can never kill Communism.

The left still believes there is a Utopian government and resulting society and as long as they believe this bulltripe they will continue to promote various versions of communism by whatever name they find compelling.

Golitsyn bump!

Ping for the list, Thunder90...

Answer to the question in the article title: YES, definitely!

Bookmarking for a later, more thorough read of the article and links though...

Lord Monckton says a good friend of his was a co-founder of Greenpeace. When The Wall came down, Commies from the East flooded Western Europe and took over all kinds of organizations. They took over Greenpeace and forced out all the non-Commies.

If you are a ranking party member or a relative, that is.

Capitalism is a great way to rake in money, but the totalitarian government is still alive and well, just hiding behind a better suit.

[LibertyRocks]

What is it you find ridiculous? Or, were you being sarcastic?

NOTE: I have to come back to this later, so it may be a bit before I respond. I just saw your post though and was curious if you were serious.

There are some posts here that think the notion of communism simpling setting up shop elsewhere is ridiculous, but that's exactly what it does. Russia wasn't the seat of communism, it was simply one of its victims. The ideology is alive and well in thousands of hatcheries known as liberal arts departments across the United States and in other places it finds fertile ground. It lives in a country not, but in misguided minds.

Walls fell, leaders were disposed of, flags changed, people cheered and the West declared victory, but the “paradigm” in the heads of millions in the former Soviet Republics and Eastern Europe persists.

[miliantnutcase]

This is true. Communist front groups sponsor just about every major community agitator and fund groups like code pink and the ACLU.

The NWO is coming to life right before our eyes....and it’s Marxist and all that was planned that way long ago.
