Bernie Sanders is a Communist and an Ignoramus
FRONTPAGE MAG ^ | July 15, 2015 | Matthew Vadum

Posted on 02/15/2016 2:21:41 PM PST by DJ Taylor

Presidential candidate Bernie Sanders has been getting away for years with describing himself as a socialist, when in reality he is an outright America-hating communist.

This belief in communism is reflected in the Sanders platform. Even a brief glance reveals his plan to be hopelessly utopian and insane. It will extinguish freedom and shutter businesses and cause widespread suffering especially among the poor people he claims to want to help. It is a program for exporting the best and the brightest to places that appreciate them.

But identifying Sanders as a communist can be a risky proposition in modern-day America. The Left so dominates American culture that the word communist itself has become jarring, not because communism is bad but instead because leftists believe communism is good.

Left-wingers are students of George Orwell. They understand that language can be used for good or ill; to advance truth or mask it. To undercut the power that that emotionally charged word communism and its variants once had in this country when used by patriots to attack the nation's foreign and domestic enemies, the Left over time reversed its polarity. Over and over and over again in the culture, leftists drove home the false notion that communists were boogeymen invented by those who wished to control the population through fear. Another way of putting it is to say that the Left marginalized its own word in order to protect the profoundly antisocial idea it represents.

Bernie Sanders is the first openly America-hating communist to run for President. At least Obama attempted to hide his past anti-American Communist affiliations.

Venezuela was in the news this morning.. Not only did they run out of toilet paper a while ago, now the country is running out of food. Long lines for what is left in grocery stores.
Bernie has looked to Venezuela for ideas.

No doubt. People say Bernie is “honest” because he calls himself a socialist. That’s like saying a murderer is honest about being a criminal because he admits that he’s a thief.

You’re preaching to the wrong crowd, you have to reach the college aged kids who are expecting free tuition and everything else.

I’d have to assume Hillary’s crowd has all the Venezuela footage ready to go to wrap around Sanders neck. Too easy.

Those two fit him perfectly! Unfortunately, they fit 45% of Americans as well. College kids think they know economics because they can balance their checkbook. History is void of WWII, Korea, the cold war, the truth about Margaret Sanger, LBJ and the “Great Society”, Woodrow Wilson, 9/11 and on and on.

I can think of others. George McGovern, John Kerry, Hillary Clinton, and Barack Obama. I believe that they all pretended to be Democrats.

Then Bernie's Team points out that Hillary pretty much supports the very same things....too easy.

Go low key and pray he is nominated. It will be like running against Pee Wee Herman right after the movie theater incident.

Sanders never worked in his life, was a Conscientious Objector, and I haven’t checked but assumed he has consumed about 9 pounds of LSD, (when the dosage is by the drop).

How someone can seek to be in a position to order men into battle when he himself rejected that very same responsibility will be extremely detrimental to his candidacy. We cannot pick and choose our wars, and if called to serve as was mandatory at that time, you must serve.

So, he is a psycho leftist hippie socialist and that is a short distance from communist and that is even a shorter distance to the destruction of the Constitution, and even a tiny distance from the creation of a Gulag - where the Kulaks will be sent to die. Communism cannot work without a Gulag!

Sanders took his wife and honeymooned in the Soviet Union - the grand Satanic temple of the destruction of the human spirit.

Communism sucks Bernie. Welcome to the Democratic Party.

Bernie Sanders is a Marxist.

Every single thing he’s proposing - from higher income taxes, to open borders, to free college is right out of ‘The Communist Manifesto’.

Note that Karl Marx HATED the middle class.
He wanted them DEAD.
He wanted their blood FLOWING in the streets.

He didn’t have a single idea that was geared to helping the middle class.

But you middle class Marxists just love Bernie. :)

The tragedy is the complete idiots that our publik skools are puking out where they can “believe” in such irrational, stupid ideology. 60 years ago this person would have been LAUGHED off the stage.

A generation, if not autistic/drugged, are just like Hitler’s Youth now.....dumb, ignorant Shock Troops and goons, ripe for a takover of the USA, who can’t even tell boys are not girls-—or worse—they are such puerile emasculated little boys, that they love to dress, dream and lust after a Justin Beiber, as their sisters are being raped and killed.

Bernie is insisting on “real” change, not Obama’s style of “change”.

I reject the term utopia when referring to communist.... communism is simple enslavement of some people for the benefit of other people....if you are required to work and forced by others to give your labors to somebody else ... you are a slave
