Someone decided a long time ago that the Democrat Party should be represented by blue, a cool color, while the Republican Party should be represented by the color red, an angry color. USA Today claimed that they may have had something to do with it. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2020/11/03/heres-why-republicans-red-and-democrats-blue/6144842002/
Red has
always represented the oppressive communist movement since its inception. Those
in power knew that red is an angry color, and it still represents communism
around the globe. They assigned the angry red and the cool blue to fool the voters. Everyone knows that both Republicans
and Democrats are part of the same national suicide pact driven by their greedy
quest for power, control, and money.
Having
witnessed the destruction planned and accomplished by the Communist Party in
Romania, I am reminded daily of the destruction wrought upon this country by
the Marxist Democrats in power.
My childhood
friend wrote to me recently that the rest of the world is watching anxiously what
America is doing to itself because, without America’s financial help,
development, and progress, everyone else is doomed. “Our fate depends on your
fate. It would be so nice if we had peace on the planet and hatred between
countries would stop. After all, we are all mortals.”
If policies
applied under the communist regimes in the Iron Curtain seem familiar to you,
it is because the Marxists in power here are adopting similar policies. Americans
who vote for socialist Democrats do not understand the significance of their
error because their historical knowledge of communism is extremely limited as schools
do not teach students what happened inside the Soviet Union and the Iron
Curtain.
When it came
to controlling the population, the commies made up crises, and then offered solutions
that were worse than the crisis they created in the first place. The communist
elites ruled by intimidation, fear, brute force, fealty, insecurity, and
snitching on families and friends. It was an Orwellian police state that
controlled everything.
Birth
rate – the Communist
Party realized that the birth rate was plummeting because no women in their
right minds would bring children into the world where famine, scarce food
supply, rationing, difficulty to find or afford a place to live, were the norm.
It was a very hard life created by the police state.
But the
police state needed workers for their factories and agriculture; they could not
bring workers in via illegal immigration, nor did they want to. So, they forced
women to have 4-5 children to prove their loyalty to the Communist Party and to
the common good.
In March
1984 measures were established to allow the government to check women every
month at work to see if they were pregnant. If they were, the women were forced
to carry the baby to term and, if they could not afford to feed it, the babies
would become wards of the state. Still, more than half of all pregnancies were
aborted via illegal means.
Women were
denied proper medical care, were malnourished, and some died if they miscarried.
Doctors were afraid to treat them. Women who spontaneously miscarried were labeled
criminals by the state and so were the doctors who treated them. High school
girls were encouraged to have out-of-wedlock babies and were given medals “for
contributing to the construction of the socialist police state.”
Diet and
food consumption –
the communists even invented a “scientific diet” that involved little or no
meat because meat was in short supply, most production was exported to the west
for cash earmarked for the Communist Party elites. Remember the push globally
now to eat crickets and worms which are already added to many products and are
listed on the label with their Latin names?
Hot
water, heat, electricity, fuel rationing – there was so much export of goods to fund the commies’ pet
projects that there was so little left for the population. They were forced to
do without hot water, heat, electricity, and fossil fuels at a time when they
were most needed. Shortages of everything, rationing, and long lines dominated
the economic landscape.
Destruction
of historical and religious monuments – two such monuments were destroyed in Romania in July 1986,
the last Sephardic synagogue in Bucharest, and in August 1986, the largest
Seventh Day Adventist church. The list of historical churches demolished to
make room for the Bauhaus style construction of communist pet projects was quite
long.
Destruction
of historical buildings and statues – The move was intended to make room for the gaudy monuments and
statues dedicated to communism.
Scarcity
and rationing by coupon
books issued monthly to each family – It included food, shampoo, rice, cooking
oil, sugar, coffee, milk, eggs, cheese products, soap, and detergent.
Fake and
non-scientific warnings about the dangers of overeating - The population was starving and thin
already, and the ridiculous advice was passed to hide the lack of food and
other staples. Food was rationed and calories were dictated by law while the rotund
elites stuffed themselves.
The
monopoly of the printed word - The Orwellian Ministry of Truth was the controllers’ way
to know everything people thought, said, and wrote. If you were declared a
“danger to the public order,” you were not allowed to own a typewriter. If you owned
one, you had to declare it along with a sample of its print.
The
blatant mismanagement of the economy from the top was blamed on black market profiteers.
Everything produced went for export to fatten the pockets of the elite Party
members – food, grain, energy, electricity, steel, and crude oil.
Destruction
of private property and
valuables - People’s private homes were destroyed, and valuables were
confiscated and distributed among the top elites of the party. The new socialist/communist
man did not need a house or personal possessions because the Party would provide
it all. This promise was just one more lie added to the many told before.
Confiscated
farmland for communist agriculture – The regime moved farmers into ugly apartments in the city,
bulldozed their homes, and confiscated their land for agriculture. Overnight
the farmers became “town peasants” who were dependent on the state to supply
them with food, gas, and electricity as wood burning was no longer necessary or
allowed. Trees were reserved for logging and exports.
These are
real stories witnessed by many who escaped communism. Now that a new brand of
communism is blanketing the globe, one wonders where one can escape it as the
west is destroying itself and turning to the neo-communism developed by the
globalist technocrats who control everything in their lives.
It is no
longer about the Reds and Blues fighting for political office and power, the
winning of which is already decided by the authorities who control the voting
and the huge invasion of voting illegal aliens. It is about surviving the
technocratic neo-communism which many around the globe have already accepted despite
the loss of personal freedom and national sovereignty.
Excellent article, if a bit depressing, but needs to be read. Shared on FB & X with button at bottom of story. You're right. I learned little to nothing, leaning toward nothing about communism in high school in the late 70's. The most I heard about the evils of communism was at Youth for Christ rallies on Saturday nights in a fairly big auditorium that held probably 750-1,000 (it's closed now so going by memory) of us and world renowned speakers were brought in like Carrie ten Boom (The Hiding Place) and others who smuggled Bibles into communist countries and told of the official atheism. In 1980, Ronald Regan ran for president and spoke of the evils of communism among other things the liberals were destroying. He came to Wichita State University where I was studying journalism and he gave a rousing speech that my husband and I attended which I still recall to this day. I also did a lot of reading on my own to what happened to South Vietnam, Cambodia, etc. after the communists took over...awful as you describe.
