Kudos to Horowitz for writing this. It takes a lot of courage for him to do so. The communists have special revenges in store for their apostates.
His article brought out some ironies. He is correct that with these people it is always about power and nothing but power. It’s been that way ever since Lenin got off the train in St. Petersburg. But in their quest for power, America’s communists have become that which they once detested. Back in the 1930s and 1940s, there were two competing strains of statism at work in the world; fascism and communism. And they absolutely despised each other, even though they sought essentially the same ends. From 1939-1945 those two strains fought a vicious, brutal war of extermination against each other. The communists won that war at a staggering cost.
Today, the American communists, in order to gain power, have become fascists. They sold their ideological souls of Marxism-Leninism to create a state much more like Hitler’s Germany than Stalin’s USSR. And our leftists like Jarrett, Axelrod and Ayres probably don’t realize it. Or care.
I don’t see much difference between the regimes of Hitler and Stalin, except that neo-Nazis at least admit what they are while neo-Socialists try to deny it by calling themselves “progressives” and “liberals” and “Obama.”
