Why do such a "healthy" portion of Republicans label everything on the left as communism. Do you people know what communism is?
CNN slants left but it in no way is communist. Neither were biden, obama, or Clinton.
Labelling everything as communist takes away from reasoned argument. Its like leftists calling Republicans nazis. It's stupid and counterproductive.
I hope you are sitting down when you read this Bubba,but Nazism is a form of Communism. In FACT,the USSR and Nazi Germany were allies right up to the moment Hitler invaded the USSR. Suddenly,like Magic,Nazism became evil to the 'murikan left fellow travelers,and since they could no longer associate Nazism as a positive political movement and ally to Communism,Nazism instantly became evil.
So,the communists started calling traditional Americans "Nazi's" to make them look evil in the eyes of the common people in order to help the Communist program to infiltrate American politics and daily life with Communist moles.
The prime difference between Nazism and Communism was that the Nazi's were happy to allow businessmen the freedom to build up businesses,as long as they cut the Nazi Party in on the profits.
They were also happy to close down any business that was failing,and turn it over to a relative or other party member to run.
The Communists were and are insanely jealous of anyone who has anything they don't,so they started working from Day One to destroy any successful business. Everyone would be equal in poverty. Except for the Commisars,of course. They were the ones that really "owned" the USSR. Unless of course one of them pissed off someone in the Politburo. That was a one-way ticket to eventual death at a labor camp,or quick death from a pistol shot to the head.
What it boils down to at the base is both were police states,and America was free. Americans even had the right to fail and just start over again.
