Of Marxists and morons ....
Communism has never worked, but that doesn't stop the left.
Eric Utter | July 14, 2026
Most of us have heard the horrific figures: Marxist communism was responsible for more than 100 million deaths in the 20th century alone.
There are two preconditions necessary for people to accept or even welcome communism: one, frustration with current economic and/or political conditions, and two, a moral decay that generates a disdain for work and an excessive entitlement mentality, demonizing others’ success, accomplishments, and wealth.
For far too many, this demonization of what others have leads not unto desire to make the right decisions and work hard enough to earn it yourself, but envy, greed, wrath and sloth, four of the Seven Deadly Sins.
And a demand that much of what others’ have be confiscated and handed over to one’s self and one’s demographic group … without one having to work for it.
This, as history clearly shows, is an automatic death sentence for a society. Every time. In every case. Whether it be the erstwhile Soviet Union, its satellite in Cuba, Pol Pot’s Cambodia, or, more recently, previously wealthy Venezuela.
