Yes, You're A Communist

Socialism leads to communism. Socialism doesn't work and communism is how they force people to make it work.

.

Where has that ever happened? In contrast to the places it's never happened...

It happened in the USSR and in Chile.

Communism is just socialism implemented by people who are serious about it and willing to use force to impose it on a populace that doesn't want it. Of course, no population of people has ever voluntarily adopted communism.

The Communist revolution in Russia occurred during the reign of the czar, which was not a socialist state by any measure.

The Marxist Allende of Chile took power when his party defeated the rightwing party of Chile at the time.

Go look it up.

There was in interim socialist government.

Russian Revolution - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia​

"Russian Revolution" is the collective term for a pair of revolutions in Russia in 1917, which dismantled the Tsarist autocracyand led to the eventual rise of the Soviet Union. The Russian Empire collapsed with the abdication of Emperor Nicholas II, and the old regime was replaced by a provisional government during the first revolution of February 1917 (March in the Gregorian calendar; the older Julian calendar was in use in Russia at the time). In the second revolution that October, the Provisional Government was removed and replaced with a Bolshevik (Communist) government.

The February Revolution (March 1917) was a revolution focused around Petrograd (now Saint Petersburg), then capital of Russia. In the chaos, members of the Imperial parliament or Duma assumed control of the country, forming the Russian Provisional Government. The army leadership felt they did not have the means to suppress the revolution, resulting in Nicholas' abdication. The Soviets (workers' councils), which were led by more radical socialist factions, initially permitted the Provisional Government to rule, but insisted on a prerogative to influence the government and control various militias. The February Revolution took place in the context of heavy military setbacks during the First World War (1914–18), which left much of the Russian army in a state of mutiny.

A period of dual power ensued, during which the Provisional Government held state power while the national network of Soviets, led by socialists, had the allegiance of the lower classes and the political left. During this chaotic period there were frequent mutinies, protests and many strikes. When the Provisional Government chose to continue fighting the war with Germany, the Bolsheviks and other socialist factions campaigned for stopping the conflict. The Bolsheviks turned workers militias under their control into the Red Guards (later the Red Army) over which they exerted substantial control.[1]

In the October Revolution (November in the Gregorian calendar), the Bolshevik party, led by Vladimir Lenin, and the workers' Soviets overthrew the Provisional Government in Petrograd and established the Russian SFSR, eventually shifting the capital to Moscow in 1918. The Bolsheviks appointed themselves as leaders of various government ministries and seized control of the countryside, establishing the Cheka to quash dissent. To end Russia’s participation in the First World War, the Bolshevik leaders signed the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk with Germany in March 1918.​

That's funny even for you.

What's "funny" about it, your ignorance?

 

[PoliticalChic]

Surprising how many good Americans have been fooled into accepting, and voting for, communism. And when the truth is revealed, they are startled, incensed, and furious that anyone would say such a thing.

But it's true. There is no essential difference between communism, socialism, Liberalism and/or Progressivism. At the heart of each is a faith and adherence to big, overarching government, the representative of the collective, at the cost of individual liberty and freedom.

How did communism become the public religion of America? The following will explain, ....as we say in science....'its origin and insertion."


In a recent thread, one that illustrated the connections between environmentalists, communists, with the confiscation of private property, a government school graduate demonstrated how offended she was by posting this as part of a scathing disavowal of the above:

"OP tries to connect communism to the moderate left wing democrats." One More Of Those Environmentalist Fairytales

Clearly, an intervention is sorely needed.

It follows:



1. Karl Marx's lethal philosophy is the basis of both communism and of Nazism.

a. A year after Lenin's death, 1924, the NYTimes published a small article about a newly established party in Germany, the National Socialist Labor Party, which "...persists in believing that Lenin and Hitler can be compared or contrasted...Dr. Goebell's....assertion that Lenin was the greatest man second only to Hitler....and that the difference between communism and the Hitler faith was very slight...." NYTimes, November 27, 1925.

b. "Hitler often stated that he learned much from reading Marx, and the whole of National Socialism is doctrinally based on Marxism."
George Watson, Historian, Cambridge.

c. "Socialists in Germany were national socialists, communists were international socialists."
Vladimir Bukovsky.



2. I don't use "lethal" in a cavalier fashion: Over 100 million men, women, and children were slaughtered by Soviet Communism alone. When that fact was stated, one inveterate Liberal poster laughed, and said 'You sure it wasn't 100 billion?'
And the horrors of Nazism are well known. But both began here:

a. "Early socialists publically advocated genocide, in the 19th and 20th centuries. It first appeared in Marx's journal, Rheinishe Zeitung, in January of 1849. When the socialist class war happens, there will be primitive societies in Europe, two stages behind- not even capitalist yet- the Basques, the Bretons, the Scottish Highlanders, the Serbs, and others he calls 'racial trash,' and they will have to be destroyed because, being two stages behind in the class struggle, it will be impossible to bring them up to being revolutionary." George Watson, Historian, Cambridge University.

b. "The classes and races, too weak to master the new conditions of life, must give way...they must perish in the revolutionary holocaust." Karl Marx, People's Paper, April 16, 1856, Journal of the History of Idea, 1981

c. "Before Marx, no other European thinker publically advocated racial extermination. He was the first."
George Watson.

Socialism leads to communism. Socialism doesn't work and communism is how they force people to make it work.

The tactics are old ones and it's just incredible that they can use them today. Of course, a whole new generation who hasn't been properly versed in history means a lot of ignorance.

As in the past, the radicals today convince people that they do things for the greater good. If you disagree with them, they accuse you of being uncaring, selfish and intolerant. No one wants to be considered mean and they eventually go with the flow because they don't want to be singled out by often violent protesters.

It's all mind games and people still fall for it.

Whether it's an expanded welfare state or bringing in large numbers of unvetted refugees, people are flat out told that they are heartless if they oppose any of it.

What most oppose isn't helping people, it's the methods by which we aid those in need. One way would help them back on their feet, the other tends to keep them under the wing of nanny government.

If you oppose refugees, you are ridiculed for being afraid of innocent children and widows. Never mind that there are few of those in the groups. The majority are young males and we are quite certain that a percent are radicals who seek to harm us. Simply bringing up a valid concern will cause the loud mouth radicals to target you.

People have rejected the far left ideology and that is why it was never presented honestly. It was sneaked in bit by bit by shaming people into going along.

Sanders is being honest about socialism, something that was never done in the past. What's changed is that liberals involvement in schools changed the way it was presented to students. It's been pushed as the only fair way while capitalism has been painted as evil.

Even with all that, most liberal politicians continue to lie. They have to since so many older people have had the nerve not to die off like they were supposed to. And there are plenty of younger people who reject socialism and , especially communism, because they understand what it means. A few libs in the past have come right out and said that old people have a duty to die. For now, the left is forced to deal with those who do remember history and have good arguments to explain why the left is wrong.

The scary part is that so many indoctrinated idiots have embraced the idea of socialism because they've been taught that anyone who has money has somehow cheated the rest of us.

That poster in your sig is great!!!

Perhaps the origin was here:
"Truth is the mother of hatred."

You've heard that 'even the Devil can quote the scriptures,'....but here's a perfect example, also about truth....

This may help:
1. "Marxism rested on the assumption that the condition of the working classes would grow ever worse under capitalism, that there would be but two classes: one small and rich, the other vast and increasingly impoverished, and revolution would be the anodyne that would result in the “common good.”

2. But by the early 20th century, it was clear that this assumption was completely wrong!
Under capitalism, the standard of living of all was improving: prices falling, incomes rising, health and sanitation improving, lengthening of life spans, diets becoming more varied, the new jobs created in industry paid more than most could make in agriculture, housing improved, and middle class industrialists and business owners displaced nobility and gentry as heroes."

Did you notice that the Communist Party USA no longer has to run their own candidates? They backed Obama and are for Sanders

As the KKK is for the Republicans since they no longer have to run their own candidates?

You far right teatards are stone crazy out of your minds.

Get it through your head that 70% of America will not agree to Trump as president, even if it means Hillary.

This is on you; it's on the hard right.

You don't have the vote, and you know better than try force.

KKK -- You mean Bobby Byrd's Company? Bobby Byrd was a Republican? Really?

What about Hugo Black? Was he a "Republican"?

Jake, adios. When Trump wins you're on the first boat back to Stats. I'll miss you Bro. Ask Donald if you can keep a laptop to stay in touch with us at USMB

Well Cynthia AKA Chica is just a sad example of an internet warrior with issues. I believe she may have been severely mistreated, molested, bullied or something else very distasteful in nature and this form of acting out is the her mistaken path she has chosen so she can cope with her past, but at the same time to absorb more negativity out of habit. It's a shame to see someone that far gone. Perhaps everyone should ignore her posts to force her to seek professional care! What do ya think?

[QUOTE Conservatives and Republicans have been using that fear of communism on us for probably a hundred years now, the peak probably coming during the Red Scares and McCarthy period. I took a college course one time and the instructor suggested we put covers on our books or some parents would accuse the school of teaching communism and he would end up before a committee of some type. When did the USSR drop Marx, 1924? What nation has ever practiced Marx?

 

[francoHFW]

Anyone arguing the OP is an idiot. Communism has NOTHING to do with US politics anymore. Euro/Aussie/etc socialism? I certainly hope so...

 

[WheelieAddict]

The propaganda is strong with this thread, with just the title. It is obvious and has been for awhile that PropagandaChick is a North Korean shill that puts down the US and our history at every turn.

 

[jbrower157]

Why is it that a communist country can embrace capitalism but if a democracy introduces socialistic aspects it's called communism? There is a difference between political ideals and economic ideals and they are not one in the same. China's capitalist, does that mean that we're communist? Lemons are yellow, does that mean bananas are lemons? The fact is that most people don't even know the definition of socialism. If so you would know the policy's of FDR and propositions of sanders are miles away from true socialism. You would also know that socialism is no more equivalent to communism than capitalism is to democracy.

The cartoon is an oversimplification. Two essential figures are missing: the government and the consumer. Consumers and laborers could be one and the same but in today's global economy that might not be as axiomatic as it once was. In the first illustration the owner of the means of production should be throwing a few pennies back towards the workers...just enough to ensure they can survive, buy his products and most importantly: keep production going. In the second illustration the government would own the means of production and should be throwing social benefits, living wages and a safe working environment back towards the workers. The latter is communism in t's purest form.


Your "expert" is a Roman Catholic priest and gay rights activist. Interesting combination. I cant tell if he is a Rightist or Leftist. In either case his speech is shortsighted and wrong!

I can agree with the statement predicting the negative impact raw capitalism would have on the working class. Indeed the GOP has been the standard bearer for that kind of irreverent paradigm even before the Great Depression made their dream a reality.

I can only marvel at the thought that your "expert" forgot the evils of unbridled Capitlaism are no better than the evils of unbridled Communism:

[there4eyeM]

We are encouraged more and more to buy into the dualistic concept of 'Libs' and 'Cons', each being the embodiment of evil to the other. Childish and unsophisticated as this is, we see obviously intelligent people deeply engrossed in its practice.The constant hammering has twisted vocabulary to the point that anything resembling objective discussion has become extremely difficult. The most minor mention of any sort that looks like a defense of one pole is vehemently, even viciously, attacked by minions of the opposite.
Here, we are to believe one is 'communist' if child labor is criticized, health care is encouraged, property is not placed on at least an equal ground with people. It is for such activity that many who are not really 'left' oriented are so repulsed by the 'right'.

Complete nonsense. Pure capitalism produces never before seen wealth. Communism produces death and miseary.

Guess what capitalism also did? Produce so much wealth that children no longer had to work. Duh... Very close to purely capitalist countries such as Singapore are above all rich and plain better... the children most definitely are not working there. Sorry to burst your bubble of complete lies. Good luck finding the communist country that doesn't use child labor. Fact is, you need wealth, not legislation of a regressive, for that to be a case.

Here is a message from Cuba:

"Some of children, in accordance with family custom, must work. In effect, the idea of sending a child to work so that he can earn some pesos for the household remains acceptable in certain families."

Because of communism and big government, the kids are STILL working there. Thankfully the kids at least receive a "free" indoctrination from the Marxist school, so their children will have to work too!

Theft and coercion (communism) only produces a society that eats itself. I don't understand how people can actually believe that you need coercion to run a successful society. Fact is, you need coercion to steal other people's money, which is what you want to justify. It's the Marxist indoctrination kicking in.
