“Communism was never conclusively destroyed, and it was never condemned in some kind of court.” Vladimir Bukovsky
Without brakes, a train will eventually derail and cause an unimaginable disaster and suffering. Similarly, a free society like the United States which tolerates divergent opinions and groups, will be unable to stop the existence or the activism of communist organizations, groups, and individuals who rebrand themselves as Democrat Socialists who want to fundamentally change America from a constitutional republic to a socialist republic.
Socialist
appears to be a much less threatening term than communist, and it is very
appealing to half of the country who has slept soundly through American history
classes or has been indoctrinated since the 1980s by Howard Zinn’s manufactured
version of American history.
Socialism,
Democratic Socialism, and Communism are incomprehensible terms and notions to
most Americans because they did not study specific details about socialism or
communism and how many millions have been killed by the Communists under the
ruling of the Communist Party.
Democratic
Socialism is a term
invented by Democrats who love euphemisms and rebrand old and dangerous
ideologies that would benefit their plans for total control of the population
that would become dependent on them.
Most
Americans adopt the exact words and phrases of the daily MSM broadcast and regurgitate
them ad nauseam without really understanding what they are saying, and what
they are asking for. Such blatant useful idiot ignorance inevitably
leads to New Yorkers voting for a Muslim communist as their Democrat mayoral
candidate.
A train that
derails causes immediate reaction and alarm. But, once people vote for the pie
in sky promises of socialism, communism, Democrat Socialism, the results take
years before the oppression of what they voted for rears its ugly head. By
then, the possibility of reversal is farfetched. It may take decades to reverse
the damage. It is easy to vote for a communist, all you need is a ballot and a
ballot box. But you need a revolution to reverse course and undo the damages
caused by the Communist Party or the Democrat Party rule.
The
Bolshevik activists of the Soviet Union, Germany, England, and America of the
20th century had fanned across the world to indoctrinate poor
farmers, factory workers, and all the useful idiots they found into the wonders
and freedoms of the promised land of socialism. The Communist Party was going
to give them anything free they desired. When the activists were met with
pointed questions and resistance by the populace, those farmers and workers
were beaten up and disappeared. It was indoctrination by force and by the
promise of murderous violence.
Once the
Communist Party was successful in eliminating several monarchies, the socialist
republics that replaced those monarchies began to build walls, prisons, and
gulags (forced labor camps) to keep their populations in, restricting most of
their freedoms.
Sadly today,
the new generations of indoctrinated Americans have not been taught about the
major failures of Marxist economics and the murder of 100 million innocents at
the altar of communism.
Vladimir
Bukovsky wrote about the absurd theories of Marx and about his predictions that
never came true. The numbers of the “proletariat” actually decreased
significantly in the developed capitalist countries. Their living standards
have increased and not fallen. Marx was wrong about
“super-monopolization.” Small producers
have grown and still do. The “market economy” improved the “means of
production.” Socialism destroyed their centralized economies. And who are the
“proletarians” of today? Marx wrote about “the crises of over-production every
ten years.” It never happened because supply and demand controlled that
possibility.
The reality
is that the socialist regime and their central planning under the guidance of
the Communist Party have never been successful at anything except oppressing
the masses, paying them the lowest wages possible, and making their lives a
continuous misery for most of the twentieth century. They never supplied enough
goods to keep their citizens well fed, happy, warm in winter, with a plentiful
supply of water, medications, and other necessities for a decent life. The only
ones who lived well were the Communist Party members, their apparatchiks, their
informers, the standing army, and the security police.
Despite the
constant semantics and euphemisms rebranding communism in a positive light by the
Democrat Party and the left, we do not have a proletariat in America, nor
workers, we have employees. And we are not a democracy; we are a Constitutional
Republic. If we are smart enough, we can keep it, but if we keep following the
Democrat Party’s direction, we might all be “Democratic Socialists,” whatever
that means.
Final note from RevealedEye:
"Accepting Socialism is basically admitting you can't compete in the real world. You are saying, 'I'm willing to give up my liberty, my religion, and my dreams as long as the state will take care of me.' Accepting Socialism is accepting failure."
From Marianne Sanders: "Totally on point.
ReplyDeleteMarx was a trust fund kid who spent his life mooching off his friends. His rubbish about communism ultimately was self serving. Lenin had the same background. It’s quite a piece of irony that Bernie Sanders was so lazy he was kicked out of a commune. And of course, now he’s wealthy courtesy of Hillary who paid him off to step out of the race, along with all of his ill-gotten gains in the Senate. Additionally ironic is how it is often the rich who lecture us about the evils of capitalism."
From Vladimir Pismenny, a Russian emigre and friend:
ReplyDelete"You put Vladimir Bukovsky words as epigraph.
I was a lucky to see him on his last coming to Washington and after his lecture (in English) we talked outside probably for 40-45 min while he smoked a cigarette after cigarette. He was exceptional man, I would say "a man made from iron" and I remember every minute of our conversation.
So, I consider myself very lucky that life gave me such a chance."
