My God... They’re figuring it out... And guess what... Red is the colour of Socialism... Not blue. That’s why the NAZI flag was red, why all communist flags are red... Blue is the colour of Conservatism.

[Impala64ssa]

Anti Semitism. Not just for skinheads and klansmen anymore. Actually left wing Jew hatred is nothing new, it’s just become more obvious.

And guess what... Red is the colour of Socialism... Not blue. That’s why the NAZI flag was red, why all communist flags are red... Blue is the colour of Conservatism.

The media made a concerted effort back in the 1990s to change the colors from blue to red for Republicans.

If you go back and check, they used to be blue for Republicans and red for Democrats.

The lunatic socialists, far left loons, appear to be in control of the dim party.

[faithhopecharity]

Yes. Communism-socialism and nazism have been the most evil and destructive things in human history. Soroznazi and islsmlnazism and their bought- up puppets at the DNC will be ruin of America ( and obviously UK , France, Germany, Belgium, Netherlands, Italy, etc ) as soon as they can. Unfortunately, they’re winning. And winning fast too

“As the Democrats Go Socialist, They Go Anti-Semitic”

The bet here is that the RATS will get the majority of the Jewish vote in 2020. Some folks never learn.

[fieldmarshaldj]

It happened on Election Day 2000. The mislabeling of the parties is vile and we should all refuse to use it.

[353FMG]

RATS can afford to go anti-semitic as they are assured of the Jewish vote.

Hell, they can even go anti-black and it won’t really matter for them.

[Starstruck]

Sounds like 1930’s Germany.

[353FMG]

The picture of the two laughing women above shows that they know they got America by the balls while squeezing.

[tired&retired]

Stalin did the same thing to Trotsky after he helped with the Russian Revolution.

The Jews supported the Revolution, only to get screwed . When will they learn?

[central_va]

What will it take to get a Jew to vote for a Republican?

[Scott from the Left Coast]

“What will it take to get a Jew to vote for a Republican?”

Probably another Holocaust. Many, many of them are more Marxist than Jewish.

[Louis Foxwell]

Non religious Jews were brought up under Communism. Their God is the state.

Thanks for your diligent posting of Daniel Greenfield articles. They are always worth reading, and running a much less active ping list than yours, I know it's a significant amount of work to do what you do.

This is obviously right in his wheel house, and he does a great service by teaching us about the roots of the two movements, Socialism and antiSemitism. Fascinating.

Thanks again!

I believe the current Red-Blue identification was pretty much arrived at by happenstance. Here is how I remember it:

There was a convention among political scientists to graph elections as blue for incumbent party and red for challenging party. (I worked in this field in the early 1980s). This carried over to election maps, which would usually show the incumbent in blue (regardless of party).

The breakthrough and change came due to the USA today map of George W. Bush's victory in 2000, when USA Today, which was the first (and only) newspaper to publish in color at the time, and loved reporting on things state-by-state put a double-page centerfold of the 2000 election results out in their newspaper. It was a unique map, instead of showing the results by State (which is how electoral votes are counted) it showed the results by county (which is meaningless in terms of vote counting). This was published in the middle of section A of their election special edition. It showed the geographic dominance of the Republicans, and how the Democrats were confined to a few densely populated urban areas and the coastal zones.

This was a unique way of looking at the election, it showed a lot of Red (Bush was the challenger in 2000, the incumbent party was Clinton's Democrats) and people really took to the map.

USA Today's ability to produce this map in a timely manner was a result of big improvements in computer database and GIS (Geographic Information Systems) technology.

The map was a hit. It was posted on a lot of office bulletin boards and referred to by many political commentators.

I believe it was that single map that started people referring to "red states".

At least, that's my theory and recollection.

A few other people have written about this, here's one article I found:

USA Today Uses GIS for Election Mapping

Non religious Jews were brought up under Communism. Their God is the state.

My experience is different.

First off the whole idea of non-religious Jews is strange, when you think about it. You don't hear terms like "non-religious Methodists" very often.

That's because if you stop believing in Methodism you are simply not a Methodist at all.

But because Judaism is both a religion and a closely tied ethnicity this term when applied to Jews is common.

But a lot of Jews who perhaps don't believe in God, or believe in God very weakly still feel that Jewish tradition is important and will celebrate Passover and perhaps other Jewish holidays. So, in my experience (with friends) a lof of so-called "non-religious Jews" still have a lot more connection to their religion than, say, someone who was raised Catholic but who has become an atheist.

The net-net is there are not a lot of truly "non-religious" Jews. The three main denominations sort of align with this: Orthodox have a traditional view of the religion, while the Reform Jews might only be as religious as Unitarians (which is to say agnostic), but are still part of a religious tradition.

I would suspect that only a very small percent of American Jews (say under 20) were raised outside of any Jewish religion, and yes, some of them may have been committed Communists. But I would be surprised if that was ever even 5% of Jews in the USA.

So, it doesn't really explain the 70% of Jews who routinely vote Democratic, or why most Jews embrace so many liberal social causes.

The thoughtful Jewish writer Norman Podhoretz wrote a book "Why Are Jews Liberals?", which I read a few years ago. One of the answers isn't "because they were raised as atheist commies". Speaking of broad groups, there are, of course, a few individuals who will exactly fit that description. (Micheal Savage calls them "red diaper doper babies", and seems to know who they are.)
