While the vileness of Nazism is rightfully despised, the vileness of Communism is ignored
August 16, 2017 by Alberto de la Cruz   

Nazism and white supremacy are vile ideologies that have enslaved and murdered millions and attempted to exterminate entire races of people. They deserve every bit of disdain and contempt they receive and their hatred and bigotry should always be challenged. Historically, however, socialism and communism are no better than Nazism. When it comes to their ability to inflict human suffering and extinguish lives, socialism and communism are just as effective and even more proficient. With billions enslaved and over 100-million dead, communism and socialism is every bit as deserving of disdain and contempt as Nazism.

Nevertheless, that does not seem to be the case. While Nazism is deservedly stigmatized, socialism and communism is still revered and defended, often by very influential institutions and individuals who should know better. So why is the vileness of communism so acceptable to so many?

One aspect that should be considered is public relations. Communism has enjoyed a century-long positive public relations campaign carried out by the media, academia, and political leaders all over the world. While the atrocities of Nazism have been rightfully exposed, the atrocities of communism have been at best, glossed over and at worst, completely ignored.

C'mon now. They aren't communists. They're anti-fascists.

I know because they tell us so.
