The socialist enemy… then and now

75 years ago yesterday, our greatest generation stormed the beaches of Normandy to pound the fetid bile out of… Socialism.

The Stupidest Generation has been honoring that sacrifice with a politically, historically and philosophically lazy narcissism. Conspicuous consumption became the surrogate for liberty and personal responsibility. We’ve shown our respect by allowing our constitutional republic to slip perilously close to the rocky cliffs of… Socialism.

Yes - THAT Socialism.

Socialist Party of Great Britain pamphlet from 1920

Time Magazine acknowledged Hitler’s magnificent Socialist achievements by honoring him as their 1938 Man of the Year. His more Hegelian approach had him blending state-controlled capitalism with tyrannical dictatorship. Hitler never did like the dull, gray masses produced by Lenin’s more Marxist rendition. He did, however, like Lenin’s deathcamps and stole the idea.

It does amaze me that almost none of our best voices point out the very real danger - at least not with any frequency or clarity. We’re so focused on getting justice for the crimes committed by the Deep State that we’ve lost sight of the gigantic Socialist apparatus that ties all of this together. From Clinton, Mueller, Comey, McCabe, Strzok, Page and Baker to Obama, Brennan, Clapper, Ohr, Preistap, Yates, Rice and Lynch (and far beyond), this has been a Seditious Conspiracy to overthrow the will of the people.

But why?

Dictatorship.

Socialists have murdered well more than 100,000,000 innocent folks in the past 102 years. These were nice folks - often murdered in ghastly ways. This same form of Socialism is very alive and well in American politics. It is lying below the surface - and all they allow us to see are its brightly colored deceits.

Mayor Pete and his Daddy love the Socialist Antonio Gramsci, who said,

“Socialism is precisely the religion which must overwhelm Christianity.... In the new order, socialism will triumph by first capturing the culture via infiltration of schools, universities, churches and the media by transforming the consciousness of society.“

They could not beat us from without but they are quietly succeeding from within. We are one fraudulent major Democrat election win away from having real justice slip away. Hannity likes to say that “we’ll lose the country as we know it,”  but what does that even mean?

The reality is that we are in grave danger. Thomas Lifson, the editor of this site,  recently used the horrific sentiment posted in a tweet by an actor - Jeffrey Harris - to drive this point home. For the Socialist Left, power makes principles, morality, ethics, the law and even our Constitution irrelevant. When they get that power back, folks are going to pay.

Consider that there are at least 2 major factors in play here: they lust for absolute power and they wish to bury very real felonies... forever.  Then consider the words of John C Drew, PhD - a friend of Barack Obama’s in college, 1980-81 and (then) a fellow Marxist.

“I can barely stand the thought of killing a fly… yet nothing in my consciousness would have prevented me from participating in mass murder as long as it was for the sake… of the common good.... I recognized my potential for great evil, cloaked in a matter-of-fact utilitarianism.”

Sounds similar to Lenin’s “If for the sake of communism, it is necessary to destroy 9/10ths of the people, we must not hesitate.”

Socialism is a horrific political cancer -- and we have it. The symptoms are appearing everywhere, but we carry on as if the body politic might just be suffering a bit of a cold.

If we don’t wake up soon, surely history will look back and deem us “The Stupidest Generation”.
