Pravda Knows Marxism When It Sees It

It must be said, that like the breaking of a great dam, the American decent into Marxism is happening with breath taking speed, against the back drop of a passive, hapless sheeple, excuse me dear reader, I meant people.

Does this sound like Michael Savage – you know, the radio talk show host banned in Great Britain for " hate speech"?

Well yes it does, but in fact it is taken verbatim from this article in Pravda. Yes, you read that correctly. Pravda. While it’s no longer the official organ of the the Soviet Communist party, it is staffed by some of the same journalists that wrote for it in that era. Having lived the nightmare for some 70 years, they can spot Marxism far better than our own citizens who have been numbed into complacency.

The article specifies how America came to this point: using lessons straight out of the Marxist handbook, and reiterated in Saul Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals. First you propagandize the youth through the education system:

First, the population was dumbed down through a politicized and substandard education system based on pop culture, rather then the classics.

You might want to refresh your memory with my Agitprop I, and Agitprop II posts if you’ve forgotten how that part works.

Then you undermine religion:

Then their faith in God was destroyed, until their churches, all tens of thousands of different "branches and denominations" were for the most part little more then Sunday circuses and their televangelists and top protestant mega preachers were more then happy to sell out their souls and flocks to be on the "winning" side of one pseudo Marxist politician or another.

And then you coalesce your forces and elect a naked Marxist that the people see as a “visionary leader”who will take care of everything for them so they don’t have to:

The final collapse has come with the election of Barack Obama. His speed in the past three months has been truly impressive. His spending and money printing has been a record setting, not just in America's short history but in the world. If this keeps up for more then another year, and there is no sign that it will not, America at best will resemble the Wiemar Republic and at worst Zimbabwe.

What might it take to open the eyes of those who refuse to see? We are being taken over by the enemies within and half the country is more concerned with the breakup of Jon and Kate, whoever they are, than the breakup of the capitalist free market system on which America depends. The Pravda article tracks Obama’s 4 month record of executive orders through act after numbing act: the firing of GM’s CEO, the announcement of plans to evaluate executive performance, set salary caps and guidelines for other private sector businesses, the presidential appointments of financial oligarchs to overhaul and determine the outcome of the financial sector, the announcement of a grand plan to redraw the entire tax system to include a new Value Added Tax that has worked so well in funding the folly of other socialist governments. Include in the general folly the proposed government dictated “healthcare system.” That nightmare proposal is dwarfed only by the lunacy of the proposed cap and trade system which is theoretically designed to save us from global warming. As the Pravda writer notes: “the American decent into Marxism is happening with breath taking speed.” Rahm Emanuel must be ecstatic – he has certainly not let this crisis go to waste.

Read the entire article. Pass it along to everyone you know, whether they agree with your politics or not. We need people to start thinking again, instead of letting our elected but self-serving politicians in D.C. determine our fate. Stop worrying about saving the planet: our carbon footprint is simply not big enough to leave a permanent mark. Planet earth is going to be just fine: it’s your liberty you should be worrying about, and there’s the added benefit that we can actually do something about that. Hammer your duly elected representatives, vote them out of office in the mid-term. Go to a tea party. Write an editorial. Use your head for something more than a racetrack for a comb. Send this missive on.
