    I can't remember a time when Democrats didn't assist communism at every turn.

    They've always been aligned with communists.

    You need to check the history of laws against same sex marriage, then. Most states that outlawed same-sex marriage did so after 1900, and under
    conservative direction. There were no laws banning same sex marriage in the US for decades.

    Then you need to study the wars between communist and Union members in the US in the early 1900's.
    Just because you're ill informed on history doesn't mean it didn't happen.

    Communists are like parasites. They latch on to organizations and movements, move their members up the ranks of the hierarchy until they have sufficient control, and eventually fashion the organization to further the aims of the communist cause.

    Getting to the point where they have that control takes time and can sometimes be ugly.

    Still, what we are talking about here is lower level agitation. Political parties and organizations like BLM, NAACP, ACLU, SAG, AFL-CIO, unions in general, etc, are just vehicles or fronts.

    The real power is, and always has been, the banking and corporate money brokers that set all the gears turning.

    In modern terms, the Money Trust of the early 1900's, at least here in America, are the men who began to build the organizational infrastructure that we have today. Men like J.P. Morgan, Bernard Baruch, Jacob Schiff, James Warburg, Andrew Carnegie, the Rockefeller interests, etc.

    Schiff gave $20 million of his own fortune to assist the Bolshevik Revolution. That's about $600M in today's money.

    As with most things... follow the money.

    oh, i believe that. americas's greatest capitalists are the real communists!

    the truth is that many americans crave a strong leader like the czar or battista. that is why they follow trump. opposing that kind of leader is not necessarily communism.

    The sect/cult, it becomes the life line controlled by the "personality".

    It most certainly does.

    And who are we to believe - a Civil Rights legend or an anonymous LW apologist for racist Neo-Marxist hate propagandists?

    I'll go with Civil Rights legend...

    Ha Ha! If there is one thing I'm sure of, is that you most assuredly do not get it. But I enjoy the entertainment anyway!

    I'm not interested enough, however feel free to present an essay in which pre-1900 America was a gold age of gay marriage until conservatives changed the free wheeling colonial laws.

    No telling kids in school that they
    are either helpless twits or racist oppressors is wrong.

    I have nightmares about his short story “If this goes on…”. His protagonist Nehemiah Scudder was too close to Trump for my comfort

    At the time too many thought it was impossible

    I would love to see this turned into a movie

    Being a Communist requires intellectual commitment. I suppose some DP pols may think they are Communists, but they are generally just very confused.
