What Happened to These People?

Communism in America Archives - The American Mind

When I was a nooze reporter, way back in the 1970s, I spoke with politicians every day. Most of them were Democrats. Most of them were ordinary sane people. Some of them I really liked. None of them was crazy.

Now? Holy cow. The whole party has run right off the cliff.

Yo, readers! I’m collecting theories. What happened to ordinary people who were Democrats? Some of these old Dems from the 70s are still alive, but long retired. Point is, whatever happened, happened quickly. Suddenly the party was nothing but Far Left Crazy.

They aren’t just wrong anymore. Anybody can be wrong. There’s a big difference between being wrong and being evil, being wrong and being out to lunch. Most people are right about some things and wrong about others, but today’s Dems are wrong about everything. All the time.

Look at their program. Ruptured borders. Critical Race Theory (“white people are all born racists, blah-blah…”). Transgender. Global government. Government growing by leaps and bounds. Mandates galore. Defund the police and let the felons out of jail to prey on people. That’s what they have to offer us–and who wants that?

And yet millions of people vote for these parasites. That’s another mystery that needs to be cleared up.

What do you think, folks? What happened to the people in this party? What turned them into Maoist wannabes? I mean, I have seen family members, formerly sane, go right off the deep end with the Party. If the Party makes a sudden 180 degree turn on a core principle, these individuals will turn with it–no matter how whole-heartedly they believed in the principle that now must be radically changed.

I can’t relate to that. I don’t change my core beliefs because some nudnick tells me to.

So what’s your theory, O reader? I’d really like to know… because I don’t think I have one.

‘China Bans… Winnie the Pooh?’ (2017)

Go on, tell me the “Biden administration” (a euphemism) wouldn’t do this if they thought they could make it stick.

Not so long ago, Communist China banned Winnie the Pooh. Why?

China Bans… Winnie the Pooh?

Well, it seems Chinese bloggers were using cartoon characters to represent Party big shots–and in China it’s against the law to make fun of Party leaders! Wow, would Democrats ever go for that!

You won’t here any crowds in China chanting “F*** you, Comrade Xi!” You could wind up in a concentration camp getting your organs harvested while you’re still alive.

It was never technically against the law to make fun of President *Batteries Not Included–but you never saw them doing that on Saturday Night Live, did you?

 

Do We Want a Communist Vice President?

Tension mounts as we wait for doddering Joe Biden to announce his vice presidential pick next week.

Karen Bass, who chairs the Congressional Black Caucus, a former communist and member of the “Venceremos Brigade,” Castro groupies of the 1960s, is on the short list of VP candidates (https://www.breitbart.com/2020-election/2020/07/31/karen-basss-long-march-from-communist-fringe-to-bidens-vp-shortlist/). Breitbart reports that she’s favored by former Senator Chris “Waitress Sandwich” Dodd, who heads the committee vetting the candidates.

As a member of Venceremos (Spanish for “We will win”), Bass visited Cuba eight times in the 1960s. Nowadays she tries to pretend she wasn’t really a communist. If belonging to Venceremos doesn’t make you a communist, then what does?

But hey! As long as she’s a black woman, she’s eminently qualified to be vice president… according to Biden. Besides, she was a Los Angeles “community organizer” for a while, and you can never have enough of those in the White House.

The line between the Democrat Party and the Communist Party has become virtually invisible.

Put Democrats back in charge, and you’ll be sorry. Very sorry. But by then it’ll be too late to do anything about it.
