Indoctrination and College Lecturers

The 1960s in the U.S. experienced the expanded efforts by the communist propagandists to bring more youth into the fold of its evil philosophy. The Moscow Declaration of 1960 stated, “There are new opportunities now to draw the younger generations into the struggle for peace and democracy, and for the great ideals of communism.” Communism never had peace nor was it a democracy, it was tyranny.

Sixty-three years later the roots of communism have finally sprouted and exploded around the globe, among the naïve young who were bamboozled and indoctrinated in public schools and universities with empty phrases like “social justice,” "people justice," “racial justice,” “environmental justice,” and “climate justice.”

To the misguided youth, the promise was made that the communist ideology could deliver everything for free, with world peace, prosperity, no injustice of any kind, and perennial freedom. What they were not told, nor did they bother to read or even believe those who survived communism and fled to freedom, was that communism was and still is a form of tyranny, oppression, suppression, property theft, land confiscation, hunger, and imprisonment for dissention.

The indoctrination in the U.S. started in New York City’s communist party headquarters in May 1959 when it was decided to concentrate on colleges and universities around the country to promote Marxism among students. There was a “lecture bureau” in which students were invited to speak to other students around the country about communism. The speakers were taught how to distort the facts and “misrepresent communism in order to create a false picture.”

The academic freedom at the time allowed these indoctrinators to gain “respectability” on the lecture circuit. The students were lied to blatantly about communism. Communist tyranny does not allow freedom of any kind nor freedom of choice.

Nobody asked the question, why was not there one single country in the world where communists were unanimously voted into power in free elections and why were they kept in power by the sheer force and violence of a strong military and a government that confiscated all private guns, homes, land, and private property, leaving people to starve and obey, or else they were sent to gulags.

The international communist movement brainwashed the youth and emphasized the need for violence, force, and revolution to achieve its goals. And the agents were everywhere but especially in colleges and universities around the country.

A federal judge in Detroit sentenced six communist party leaders in 1954 for conspiring to violate the Smith Act of 1940. U.S. District Judge Frank A. Picard told them:

“Your admiration for Russia is so great that there isn’t any doubt in my mind, and there wasn’t any doubt in the jury’s mind, that there is nothing you wouldn’t do – lie, cheat, or even worse—in order to attain your objectives . . . There were times during this trial when I felt that you just despised capitalists and brass hats because you weren’t one of them. I have discarded that thought. This morning I’m giving you the benefit of saying you believe in your cause but whether you do or not is immaterial for that cause has so engulfed your thinking, so dominated your every move to the extent that five of you took the stand and lied about what you believe because you thought the end justified the means . . .  You really think you are martyrs. But you’re not going to jail for your beliefs. You’re going to jail because you want to force those beliefs on others . . ..” (J. E. Hoover, A Study of Communism, 1962, p. 172)

The results today of 63 years of indoctrination are highly visible and heard in colleges and universities around the country where freedom of speech is only allowed to the Marxist segment of society and of the campus. The rest who contradicts Marxism are prevented from speaking or appearing on all campuses and any efforts to present their views are met with violence and bodily harm. The police stay on the sidelines and watch the violence unfold. The faculty, president, and the staff in general often hold Marxist views as well.

The sad thing is that none of these activists and ordinary citizens who believe them understand what communism truly is, the pain, suffering, and death it causes, and how their lives are going to be fundamentally transformed for the worse once every segment of society becomes socialist on a transition path to full blown communism.
