This is a wake-up call for young and old Americans, wearing Che Guevara t-shirts, Mao’s hammer and sickle t-shirts, holding “I support socialism” posters, and proudly displaying Hillary and Bernie bumper stickers, the ole Bernie who hates capitalism so much that he accepts political donations from evil capitalists, drives expensive cars, and owns and lives in pricey homes most of his supporters cannot afford.
If I could show young people today what communism is, those clamoring for socialism and communism to be brought to American shores, those who are tired of capitalism because they are so fat and happy, they want the challenge of poverty and want, the challenge of the communist code-speak of “social justice” and “egalitarianism,” I would send them to Cuba, Venezuela, and North Korea for a few months so that they could experience first-hand what the utopia they see as paradise is like.
If I could show young Americans the rotten socialist countries that illegal aliens have fled, the same illegals who are now giving us the finger, burning and stomping our American flag, boldly waving their flags, the total disaster they have made of their countries, while demonizing our successful America that generously put them on welfare ahead of our veterans, perhaps you might see reality.
I would ask them to come with me to see where I grew up, the cinder block grimy apartments that are still standing today. The entrance and stairwell are unchanged; the damage from the 1977 earthquake is still visible, reinforced concrete pieces dangling on the side like loose teeth. The lives of ordinary people, the proletariat, are mostly unchanged too.
I would ask them to come shop in the same neighborhood shopping center now overrun by small individual shops looking like an ill-planned bazaar, with walls that have not been painted inside and outside for decades. The poverty and scars of communism are hard to erase by time when neglect is perennial and nobody cares about the proletariat poor.
The community organizing apparatchiks lived well then and the global communist elites live well today even though communism officially “fell” in 1989. Communism has morphed into a more powerful and insidious global movement that attacks and brainwashes the population through schools and bogus global warming.
I would take them to the city hospital with its dirty wards, broken cement floors, cracked walls, unused shower stalls, with blood and other bodily fluids staining the beds, the walls and the floors, and slimy smelly bathrooms that seldom see any disinfectant.
If they want Bernie’s socialism so badly, I would take them to Venezuela, formerly a well-off country with rich oil reserves, brought to bankruptcy and penury by the lying socialists who gave the poor a dusting of free food and basic medical care but when the money dried out due to gross mismanagement and theft of the economy by the ruling communist elites, the handouts disappeared. The incompetence of socialist and communist community organizers brought the country to its knees, with inflation exceeding five digits.
I would show you, dear Millennials aspiring for Bernie’s manufactured Socialist Democracy, Venezuelans standing in long lines for basics that you take for granted, food, toilet paper, diapers, detergent, or digging in trash cans for scrap food. I would show you Venezuelans having to kill zoo animals because they could not feed them and then cooking them for their families.
Perhaps you would be willing to be injected with medicine by doctors and nurses in dirty white coats using the same syringe and few needles, boiled in rusty pans because the clinic or hospital cannot afford autoclaves and disposable medical supplies, everything is rewashed and reused. Maybe you are willing to have root canal and surgery without local anesthesia?
Liberal women demand free birth control and menstrual pads because they are too entitled to take responsibility for their own existence and basic expenses, they want daddy government to take care of all their needs from cradle to grave while they stay glued to their social media profile on Instagram or watch with bated breath how many new fake friends and likes they may gain on Facebook. Be careful what you wish for because welfare dependency on government for all needs is a grave disease which is very hard to cure if ever.
Socialist countries, not the Fabian variety, cannot even provide such items for sale in the empty stores because they mismanage everything so disastrously. They are excellent speakers and community organizers who draw naïve and ignorant progressive fools into their ideological “everything free” fantasy.
You Millennials are not even sure which bathrooms to use or what gender to call yourselves, but your list of economic demands gets larger and larger every day; everything is a right in your brainwashed minds muddled by smoking too much pot; you listen to cunning communist teachers who have never traveled to, nor lived under a communist dictatorship but you believe them nevertheless.
Millennials should learn the facts of real historical events under socialism and communism from those who have experienced it and escaped from it, not the revisionist history in textbooks and the lies spun by the communist academia and financed by globalist billionaires who have made their fortunes under the much maligned capitalism.
Bernie Sanders is selling socialism to you, young and old Americans, a failed ideology of violence, confiscation of property and land, starvation, poverty, political oppression, and loss of freedom. There is no equality, compassion, and social justice under socialism and communism. There is no social justice at all, just exploitation of the weak and disarmed. The tyrants like Mao, Pol Pot, Castro, Ceausescu, and Stalin, who had previously sold socialism to the masses have killed millions of their own people once those oppressed woke up and refused to follow the vicious path that destroyed their freedom and their lives.

socialism is more than a word for name calling….why not educate yourself….
Which country did Dr. johnson live? She doesn’t say unless I missed it.
Her book says she’s from Romania.
I have a favorite story about the USSR, the now failed socialist/communist State.
One day, i heard the radio blaring from the back of an electrician’s truck – only it was blaring classical music not the standard fare of an American teenager. I asked who liked classical music and this young kid, maybe 19, came forward. As the story unfolded, I found out he and his mother were recent immigrants and both planned to become citizens.
“Why did you come to America” I asked. His answer was that his mother wanted to become a nurse, but in the old Soviet Union she had been identified as a promising dancer and was, therefore, channeled into that area. Her desire to be a nurse didn’t matter. The Socialist State had decreed her future and that was it. By coming to America she had freedom of personal choice.
She now worked as a nurse and he has an apprentice electrician. Most young Americans don’t understand that under socialism, communism or progressivism, you end up a slave to the State, your freedom gone.
RETURN CIVICS TO OUR SCHOOLS SO KIDS LEARN WHAT SOCIALISM IS! NOW…THEY DON’T…AND IT’S ALL BY DESIGN.
Virginia public schools teach civics, 2005 law:
http://www.doe.virginia.gov/instruction/history/everyday-civics/
http://ecs.force.com/mbdata/mbstcprofancg?rep=CIP16ST&st=Virginia
Did you need all caps for your message? Or was that “ALL BY DESIGN”?
Funny, none of us parents have noticed that being the case. Yes, it’s urgent. Our schools – public and private – are turning out Bernie Sanders supporters by the millions every year.
I suspect causes other than the school system.
Have you seen a middle school or AP history textbook lately? They have completely erased large portions of our history. Most millennials don’t know what Auschwitz is. They focus on diversity, unions, women…take a look. The progressives took over the school system about 100 years ago. Jimmie Carter introduced the Department of Education. Centralized history is progressive history – all with a message of anti-Americanism. All by design, as I stated above.
Texas decides the nation’s school books:
http://www.nybooks.com/articles/2012/06/21/how-texas-inflicts-bad-textbooks-on-us/
Apparently, Cynthia Dunbar played a role in Texas school book choice. When she lived in Texas.
The US Dept of Education has no role in deciding Virginia texts or coursework, and at any rate is now run by Republicans. Texas does, however, set the market due to its size and values.
I carefully examine our son’s textbooks and coursework. Seems fair to me, but no text or course is intended to substitute for good parenting.
Whether you like it or not, Common Core is everywhere. Public and Private schools both use that curriculum. The textbook publishers now have a monopoly – they are universal.. Have you seen the math? It’s horrible…no wonder we are now no where near the top in world rankings.
Abecca curriculum did wonders for my boys.
History and Social issues from mom and dad.
Curious which countries you believe top the world rankings and why. Finland, for example, generally sits at or near the top. Their tax rate varies between 50 and 60 percent versus the US at 30 or so. China? Korea?
So I ask — which are tops, and why do you think they are tops? Genuinely curious.
Go to your local school, get a copy of the civic textbooks and lesson material. Do it before civics, look at the middle school social studies curriculum.
Or just point to a law on the books and pretend you are aware of the world about you.
Law passed 2005, took effect 2012. I am very aware of the world about me from direct experience. Our teen is in a Virginia public school, we are involved.
So, what kind of civics and social studies in your schools? If it was adequate, come up to Fairfax and see your future.
Are you involved with public schools in Fairfax? I’m not, but they are generally highly rated in both the state and nation.
By who? Google fairfax schools and any of the issues you monitor, or check in with the Fairfax GOP.
Come to Richmond PRIVATE schools and see your future. Immigration pushed in elementary grades.
Who here thinks that we don’t already live under a Sovietized Marxist-Socialist system of government? And who here thinks that it won’t get worse?
We have real elections, unlike Soviet Marxists. And if Republicans in Virginia don’t get their act together, it will get worse.
Yeah, we’ll do the heavy lifting, you just enjoy the privileges allowed to the ‘independent.’
Thanks for “allowing” me independence. It had seemed to me a fundamental right, but your generous allotment of freedom is … well, I would say kind, but it’s more delusion on your part.
Heavy lifting? You’re driving your party off a cliff.
Hey,
Not fair , I’m Independent but then that was because of the goat ropes in the Campbell County Republican Party that went to Court to not count or votes in a Mass Meeting.
In fact the term Rick Boyer called me OTR; Other than Republican.
I am fine with that but what have those goat ropes done about the Santurary Employment of Illegal Aliens in Republican Senator Steve Newman’s 23rd District?
Yes I am Independent, Free from the negligence, complicity and stupidity.
How come ICE won’t come to Forest or Lynchburg, Virginia? My guess is that Corporate Santurary is approved.
I will vote for Stewart with a passion though just as with Trump.
Goat Roping Republicans stink!
The only reason Goat Roping Republicans exist is because of the conservatives that run away to a smaller pond to claim relevance.
Even worse are the Conservative Republicans who tolerate and pander to this worthless demographic.
I don’t claim to tolerate those Republicans nor claim to be relevant for I stand to be Free and defiant.
I have to let the liberal POS’S eat them alive then kick the crap out of the punk pussy cats.
Integrity will then rise to the top much faster.
Sometimes it is good to treat them like Mike Vick’s dogs; cage um , smack the cage then let um out to fight, pick up the dead and burry them deep.
And just so everyone knows Vick was scum.for what he did. The analogy is proper for politicians though.
Of course their all scummy and useless… left to their own devices — that’s why a strong local party is so important — that’s also why the embedded swamp critters act always to strengthen themselves and weaken the party.
Follow the money and power.
Are they? Maybe so, maybe not. Maybe sometimes, and not other times. Remember, it’s what you don’t see that does that does the damage.
Second thought. I won’t have any confidence in elections until voter fraud is eliminated, and pre-selection filtering at the upper levels is terminated. The bottom line is that grass roots folks have to wrest control of the local committees from the upper echelon manipulators. Right now, I don’t see that happening because the awareness of how things really work is at a miserably low level.
I personally don’t think that Trump would have won the election if the 16 or so military intelligence agencies had not been backers of Trump. It is a possibility, not to be discounted, that a lot of the Clinton machine voter fraud was defeated by behind the scenes, out of the public eye, interventions by intelligence operatives of the various branches of the US military.
I have faith in the integrity of our electoral processes. I believe the vast majority of those involved on all sides want fair US elections, and I believe we got a fair election.
Furthermore, I do not believe there was extensive (read: determinant) voter fraud on either side, but I do believe — and there are mounds of evidence — that there were attempts by outside governments to influence voters before they went to the polls.
I believe this distinguishes us from Soviet-style government. In fact, if we were to discontinue public water, sewers, electricity, first responders, schools, and so forth, we would see a revolution in the US, and not to your or my liking.
Oddly, some are saying the only way for capitalism to survive is with a side dish of socialism. It seems that is occurring now.
As for Trump, he was properly elected as a middle finger to the status quo, which deserved it. His biggest mistake so far has been appointing Jeff Sessions. DJT would likely agree with me on that.
FI believe that the majority of people on both sides, the regular folks, want fair elections. I believe this just as you do. I also believe that when President Trump says that ‘it is a rigged system’ that the depth of the rigging and the depth of the outright fraud is exponentially more than what any of the regular folks have the capacity know, or even to believe.
For sure, people believe what they want to believe, and very often in the face of a conspicuous cognitive dissonance. Furthermore, they don’t know what they don’t know, and this is a serious obstacle to healthy forward traction. And for all the lack of knowledge, the people go to their destruction.
Thanks for taking the time
Would that the delusions were limited to a few Millennials.
Bernie and the rest of the Democrat party apparatchiks are old enough to know better. What’s their excuse?
Bernie was homeless until he was in his 30’s and then became mayor of a town in NY. What does he really know about anything?
You might double-check your facts. For example, he was a mayor in Vermont, and graduated from the University of Chicago.
Vermont, not NY, Yankees, hard to tell the states apart.
And he went on honeymoon to the Soviet Union, back when it was hip and cool to do so.
Odd you should mention that, Republican leaders spent July 4th in Moscow:
https://wapo.st/2lWgDOx
Apparently it’s now the hip and cool place for Republicans to celebrate their new dependence day.
Old dogs can learn new tricks. Stick with it, you can tell NY and Vermont apart if you try, the latter a rural defender of gun rights, the former urban and ignorant of them.
And for my funny for the day;
