Look at what's happening in a large portion of America... today.
Look at California;

@Fishrrman Already happened. Those people really don't have a choice because they don't know any better because "left" and "far left" were the only options they have been offered for multi-generations. The FACT that the Soviet Union send Communists here to infiltrate our local and state governments starting back in the late-20's or early 30's and the left in this country STILL have to call themselves "democrats" instead of Communists is a VERY big "tell" in my book as to how Communism is still seen even after almost a century of hard work and propaganda by the elitists that have been pushing it forward as hard as they can.
An increasingly large portion of the population is acting like they're almost-ready to vote in socialism
And why not,when it is the only alternative to Communism they are aware of,and they have been programmed to think being "free" means you will starve to death in the streets? They have nothing to compare socialism to as a complete system,and in MY NSHO,the outright opposition to even mild socialism like Social Security for people who worked menial jobs their whole lives and never made enough to even save a dime would end up living in the streets. We no longer have a system in place where most people who work have large houses and lots,and can afford to take in their elderly relatives or their orphaned children and care for them because we now have zoning laws,child care workers,(or the sheep's clothing of socialism under which lies its true nature, communism). These aren't "small numbers", either, but instead comprise 30, 35% of the voting population, or more.
For the last 40 years, our young -- at least those who attend public schools -- have been "educated" by a cadre of leftists, to be further indoctrinated in universities by out-and-out communists. All part of Gramsci's (and The Frankfurt School's) idea of a "long march through the institutions" to change the culture and political system by changing what people think.
True dat! The very point I am making above.
Ironically, the United States could become the first nation in history to slide into communism not through the ammo box... but through the ballot box instead.
That's why I've
And that is exactly what would have happened if one of the "usual suspects" had been elected instead of Trump. It may still happen if the stone-stoopid Party Pod People remain united with the Dims to see him removed in 2020.
It could never happen here.
Right....?
It HAS been happening here since the 1930's. Cities and rural communities were just so widely spread apart prior to the late 1950's that it just wasn't noticeable until
recent years. Yeah,the communists have held serious political power in Mn since the 30's,but that was primarily because it was mostly populated with people from Scandinavia,and they came from socialist cultures dating back to long before the word "socialist" was even coined. Prior to the 1950's most people who lived in rural areas pretty much lived socialist lives anyhow because they had to help each other in order to survive,but that was always on a cultural/neighborly level,never as something codified into law. Since it was voluntary,the worse that would happen to you if you refused to cooperate is your neighbors would shun you. Under a codified system,the government can seize and sell all your property,which they own anyhow,and put you in a work camp prison. BIG difference,but one that needs to be pointed out to both the far right AND the far left. Volunteer=good. Government dictate=EVIL.
