I believe there are millions of supporters of the Constitution and the 2nd Amendment that may take issue with that.
A few points:
The writer of this softball crap, James Varney, needs a spanking.
CPUSA has been, for decades, only the most visible & milquetoast of many far more violent rival American Communist organizations.
Many of those rival Communists are NOT shy about upholding & emulating the violence of Pol Pot & Shining Path, and they are actively training guerilla warfare tactics to groups like BLM. & Antifa.
So, just as the Dem Party has its “moderate” and “progressive” factions, so do the Communists have their Trotskyists and their Stalinists.
What’s different today is that Communism in all its stripes is coming out of the closet and announcing its presence within the Democratic Party.
Meanwhile, its allies in the MSM are introducing us to socialism/communism in deceptively nonthreatening ways, in order to normalize public acceptance of it.
This became a quantifiable phenomenon during the Obama administration.
