The Associated Press complains that President Trump is calling their political allies “Communists”.
For years, President Donald Trump blamed “communists” for his legal and political troubles. Now, the second Trump administration is deploying that same historically loaded label to cast his opponents — from judges to educators — as threats to American identity, culture and values.
In 2025, communism wields big influence in countries such as China, Vietnam, North Korea and Cuba. But not the United States.
“The core of communism is the belief that governments can do better than markets in providing goods and services. There are very, very few people in the West who seriously believe that,” said Raymond Robertson of the Texas A&M University Bush School of Government & Public Service. “Unless they are arguing that the government should run U.S. Steel and Tesla, they are simply not communists.”
Very few people believe “governments can do better than markets in providing goods and services”?
That’s literally the mission statement of the current Democratic Party. Why else is it arguing in favor of universal health care and has created countless government agencies to control markets?
The Dems are currently being driven by the DSA’s socialist movement whose candidate, Sen. Bernie Sanders, is a socialist who argued that people didn’t really need 20 brands of deodorant.
And that’s in America. The West is even worse.
36% of Americans rate socialism positively. In the 18-24 category, nearly half want to see socialism in America. So much for the “very, very few people”.
And I rather suspect much of the AP, which is currently lying about the matter, would agree.
“believe” maybe, because they are delusional. I would say most people don’t have the critical thinking ability to even understand the issue. They are stuck in a delusional “believing” state based on what they heard from MSM and such.
American’s don’t need 20 brands of deodorant? So, just one brand, huh?
Isn’t having only one choice called a monopoly? Oh well, at least the quality will stink.
Hey AOC: What’s with the dowdy mom-jeans. You look like you are putting on weight. And they look like sh*t on you.
Is this from SNL’s Deep Thoughts with Jack Handey?
Every young college graduate and not a few older ones say “ capitalism has failed!” ( so what’s the alternative if not communism?) and “They just haven’t done socialism correctly yet. We must try it again” ( a stupid argument on the face of it) .
If I heard these statements once, I’ve heard them one thousand times, maybe more.
Ridiculous to assert people don’t want communism when they say they do.
Almost every single faculty member on every campus believes communism is superior and that is what every single college graduate has been taught. I’ve had this conversation with dozens of them and they all end up saying the same thing “communism is better it just hasn’t been implemented correctly”. Probe a little deeper and you find they are people who have zero knowledge and no working brain cells.
Communism…the miracle cure for all of society’s ailments…..one shot and all your problems are gone and everybody lives in a worker’s paradise. It is so simple…but not one single communist government seems to be able to get it right? A hundred million or so dead bodies and destroyed countries seems to be the only thing they achieve? What is the problem…can not a single person anywhere in the world in the last 100 years plus, get this right?
I know, I keep saying this but what would you call a system that controls all commerce, industry, agriculture, arts and entertainment, social media, mainstream media, science, labor unions, religion and owns all the real estate? And all this authority is wielded by a handful of people at the top. This is an absolute monopolism, or the worst of all economic systems. Of course it’s totalitarian. What else would it be but that?
It is brutal and in spite of its denials, it does not care for the proletariat. It also doesn’t care about justice. It can punish you on a whim. There would be no dictatorship of the Proletariat because the ruling communist class would never surrender power to the masses. Their scam is meant to keep the truth and keep the power away from the masses.
And even further, the leaders of the Marxist state get to control whatever you do in life, from education to employment and even where you get to live. Does that sound idyllic at all? Of course not. I used to be a Marxist and believe me, I’m not lying. at all.
Yes, surrendering power goes against political history. Old rulers sometimes step down before dying, such as Charles V. Cincinnatus gave up being Roman dictator while holding the military power he used to save it. George Washington was called the greatest man in the world by George III for not using the Continental Army to rule after the Revolution. Karl Marx never explained how the Dictatorship of the Proletariat, run by the Communists, would ever end. Nikita Khruschev made it clear. The state does not wither away ending the dictatorship. Instead, it is fused with the people. That clarifies terms such as peoples state and peoples republic.
They never heard of Bernie Sanders or the Democratic Socialist movement?
We have been warned about the Commie Scum before Senator McCarthy warned us about them and t heir Plans for America
Fewer Americans trust the M.S. Media anymore and that includes AP as well
Most people in America who have Marxist beliefs done even know the origin of their beliefs. One example is the progressive income tax. “The rich don’t pay their fair share,” which is straight from Marx, “from each according to his ability…” Of course, we don’t tax wealth (the rich) in America, we tax income, so the rich are able to keep high earners who haven’t accumulated wealth from becoming rich. Even some Republicans want higher income tax rates on high earners.
The majority of Democrats consider themselves “socialists.” As the sainted Vladimir Illyich said, ” The goal of socialism is communism.” Just thought I’d throw that in.
I never use the term “capitalism.” It’s a political misnomer defined and exploited by socialists, most notably Karl Marx, as a description and definition of an economic system they believed was a complete failure. They’ve owned that word ever since, so I leave it alone. “Free Enterprise” is a much better term in so many ways.
Communism is being taught in schools from pre-K through graduate schools, often without communist theory and historical figures. Instead the ideas are used. Karl Marx used the capitalist vs. working class dichotomy. Now, every sort of we vs. they (in group vs. out group) dichotomy is used. The aim is to create dissatisfaction with the institutions of society while using the same institutions against the system. Any institutions that are coopted are used for the revolutionary purpose without necessarily calling for violent revolution explicitly and without being nonviolent.
Any adult USA citizen of some maturity, let’s say age 40 and beyond who believe socialism is better is doing so from the comfort of their capitalist Unites States armchair and just studying socialism in Canada for instance shows that this is totally not fact.
No socialist nation is a leading global power. No communist nation is a leading global power.
USA was being systematically and rapidly dismantled in robot-autopen-Obama third term with stooge puppet brain dead globalist whore quid-pro-Joe dancing monkey puppet Briben 4 years that damn near destroyed USA and damn near destroyed our last hope on Saturday, July 13, 2024 where we all dodged bullets that day.
Ask any American living the “American Dream” if they prefer our capitalist system over the draconian socialist regimes in the world and they will not hesitate to say Capitalism Rocks – And any legal USA citizen who is not living the American Dream – You need to change your MINDSETS – Get your head on right and focused – that’s all that’s wrong with you – it’s in your head – you bitch baby crying diaper wetting nincompoops!
