It's not all bad. Yes, they were young and obviously got this from college, so scary stuff, as I've met several young ones that thing it's a great thing. |

They were both arrogantly defiant of anyone who challenged their beliefs and tried to demean all ideologies outside their own. It was also very hard to get them to shut up once they started spewing the virtues of "the Party." Quoting: GSB/LTD They're almost as disgusting as trump humping cult members. |

Quoting: GSB/LTD Ya.. but the same can be said for Christians, for Conservatives and Liberals and blah blah blah any group with any arrogant ass talking about it. Anyway I've had some online friends in China over the years.. not even they would define themselves as communist - they are just people tryin' to make a buck and buy fancy shit, like the rest of us. It's all just government antics and the antics of the fearful and anxious. |

Quoting: Butch DeFeo The fact that they are today so bold speaks volumes about our "leadership" and the society they are determined to create. I met my first Commie back in the late 70's when they were still staying pretty hidden and still smarting from the very public HUAC investigations of the McCarthy-era which I vaguely remember watching on the TV as a kid. When I met that SOB I was 27 at the time and he was in his 60's- and he spent a solid three hours trying to recruit me to the cause before I got up and walked out. The second one was when I was in my forties; he was a snotty little punk in his 30's that I'd already known for a couple of years - but he kept his politics to himself so I never knew his leanings. Once he pulled out his CPUSA membership card and started his tirade I ordered him out of my house and never saw the miserable Bastard again. BTW, speaking of the HUAC: did you know that although the original 1950's operation was disbanded by Gerald Ford in 1975, the duties were transferred to the House Judiciary Committee? In 1965 HUAC was given a new name -the "House Committee on Internal Security"- but it's function was supposed to be the same: to stamp out Communism and Fascism in America. Today the House Judiciary Committee is chaired by Jerry Nadler and his policy of open tolerance is supported by sterling public servants including Sheila Jackson Lee, Hakeem Jeffries, Hank Johnson, Eric Swalwell and Pramila Jayapal. Traitors all in my book. Is it any wonder that they refuse to incriminate BLM or Antifa? THESE are the people who are supposed to be dedicated to eradicating Communism instead of encouraging it and THEY largely bear the guilt for the proliferation we're witnessing today.

GSB/LTD (OP) User ID: 8080014 United States 02/28/2021 12:25 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I read Karl Marx's Communist Manifesto. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79667372 I understand the concept fully. Its a lie sold to useful idiots by selfish evil people. When I was in college every other student had posters of Che Guevara on their dorm room walls and was carrying around copies of Chairman Mao's "Little red Book" so I picked up a copy and read it for myself. Guess what one of it's primary concepts was? A little something that today we call being "politically-correct." |

The Semi Shut In User ID: 80069938 United States 02/28/2021 12:38 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Just like psychopaths have a short circuiting of the ventromedial prefrontal cortex and amygdala and different regions of the brain light up in orgasm and contemplation as revealed by brain imaging.....I wonder if the brain scan of a dyed in the wool communist would show up with an anomaly. Say you showed them a picture of Karl Marx and at that moment the scan showed a specific area of the brain light up. Then show them a portrait of George Washington and see what lights up then. With all the effort being put out in mapping the brain it would be very revealing as to who is who. Very 1984 I know....but these creatures hide themselves well. Sometimes I'm in the world but not of it and Sometimes I'm of the world but not in it. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 79572692 United States 02/28/2021 12:50 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Yes I have. About ten years ago I had someone working for me who was constantly on an anti capitalist pro commie rant. Fo a couple of weeks his overtime was “accidentally” missing from his paycheck. When he complained I suggested that perhaps it had been redistributed to others who had missed a full week due to being rained out. I explained that’s how communism works. He was not happy. . I nearly pissed myself laughing. Update. I saw him several years later and he wAs a more enlightened person. |
