      In other words, the way to spot communists is if they admit they are communists. Because the video clearly left out anything that would help spotting a communist who actually hides the fact he's a communist. Please learn how to comprehend.

    • @Brickcellent
      @Brickcellent 6 років тому +27

      You seem to be forgetting the fact you used the word "might". The video clearly states to take the statement of declaration at face value, regardless of the persons state, i.e. jocular or drunk, seen as the scene is set in a bar. The fact he didn't say "might" in this instance pretty much invalids your little quip. Liberally interchanging words isn't factual.

      That was a real thing. Communists would often criticize race relations in the United States to argue they should be in power. This would oftentimes be emphasised to argue communism was the only recourse. This criticism was most ironic when the Germans tried to exploit it in WWII by displaying a poster in the Netherlands that depicted the United States as a feindish, bloody monster wearing a white hood. Of course, the Germans' domestic race relations were not exactly supportive of the brotherhood of man.

Now these uneducated mobs, who got so drunk on peace, want gender to be a political matter. Actual socialist and communists try to make clean toilets for sick children in developing countries, and that act contributes more to the world than whatever the "modern left" got in mind.

      Exactly. But in USSR it was the opposite =) I mean that a person with critical mindset would be blamed of being a fascist. And while I frankly don't like USA as a state, there were no counterpart of so called red terror which took lives of many.
      P.S. I don't think communism is evil btw, this disbelief is result of propaganda, it has many good ideas, but I think it's irrational. It has many flaws and one of them is that building a communism requires isolation from neighbouring countries with market economy. Another is even worse The general idea contradicts with nature of people. People are greedy and lazy. If you give them things for free, they won't see a need to work at all... Which makes me think. Are US democrats communist? Their care of drug addicts seem suspicious.

      Im from ex Yugoslav area, ex Socialist country, all my family members lived in Socialism.
      Education was free, healthcare was free, even housing was free, jobs were plenty and stable and the working class lived peacefully knowing that their existence and the existence of their children is secured.
      People had much more than they have today.
      Besides, Communism is not about "giving things for free". You couldn't get a free apartment in Yugoslavia if you didn't work. Communism is about the class interests of the Proletariat, the productive members of the society. The reason why the common people lived better in Socialist Yugoslavia was because there was no class of capitalists that owns everything and exploits their work.
      Communism is also natural, the idea of "Primitive Communism" was inspired by hunter-gatherer societies. Everyone contributed to the collective and everyone got what they need in return. When you look at the tribes today, when you ask them what is your best day in life, most of them will tell you "It was when i killed the biggest animal and whole tribe had meat to eat". They don't just simply sit and wait for others to hunt. Humans are collectivist in nature, but Capitalism turned us individualistic.

      A cosmonaut is anyone who travels through space. An astronaut is a cosmonaut who visits other stars.
      Alexei Leonov was supposed to be the first Soviet astronaut, the first Soviet citizen to walk on the moon. But then the programme was cancelled.
      NASA was created specifically to send a man to the moon and return him safely. They called their cosmonauts "astronauts" from the beginning even when they didn't actually visit other stars.
      And now that they have accomplished their initial goal twelve times, they still call them that, although they no longer have the capability to do that anymore.
      Or the need. NASA no longer needs to rely on manual labour on other planets for their exploration.

      Freedom of speach is an absurd concept the moment you realize someone has to enforce it. Once more that things like advocacy for terrorism, spreading sensitive information, hate speach, and obviously critique of the government, somehow arent allowed this freedom. Someone draws the line but theu dont tell you where it is. The soviets were honest: you say shit about the government and we break your ankles (and even then, after stalin that wasnt really enforced). Anything else is ok.
      Thats why filmaking in the usa was so oddly terrified (insert George Lucas interview abt the USSR) that they might say the wrong thing, imply the wrong kind of message, attract the wrong interests. As such they had that rule book i cant remember, about what is and isnt allowed on screen.
      Jewish character? Might be a communist. Something to do with dr. King and the black movement? Might be a commie. A character thinks women should vote (even though they can)? Offff, i dont know about that.
      USSR? None of that, if there is a good party memeber character you can do whatever the hell it is you want. Though most of their art was often in the realm of the experimental, the snow queen, hell, guest from the future has the government as the antagonists. I even know one Bulgarian author who had a book that was debated on if it should be banned because it was anti-communist. He didnt go to a gulag, no no no, they were debating on if they should censor it. I may remember him, but if i dont, the other one is fine too. Meanwhile you suggest affordable health-care in the States and now you are Adolf Stalin, bringer of the apocalypse.

And I asked him one time, I said, "Jack, you're a avowed Communist, a member of the party, yet you work at a bank, the most capitalist of all companies save the stock market." Before I could ask a question he cut me off and said, "the irony is not lost on me. What I do in my free time is my own business. What I do at work pays my bills. If being a teacher paid as well as a computer programmer, I would have been a teacher." He was a great guy and a pretty good programmer.

      See the trick they did was they managed to disguise western propaganda behind the term “experts”. So these days its not propaganda, because the information you get comes from “experts”, doesnt matter where these people got that information in the first place and who pays them, all you need to do is switch your brain off and mindlessly drink the kool aid western mainstream media feeds you and happily cheer on the next atrocity done in the name of the international rules based order

    The context for this propaganda reel is that communists would set up front organisations to pursue their political goals in the U.S. such as the Fair Play for Cuba Committee. Henry Agard Wallace's 1948 Presidential Campaign was rife with communists and sympathisers and his platform advocated a soft-touch against communism (Wallace was not a communist and subsequently repudiated this position.). I should note the reel is careful to note that each thing may indicate you are a communist (Many of those who entered these front organisations were gullible liberals. They, despite their poor judgement, were not communist.) however if you do all of these things you probably are. The reel goes onto note that there are communists who are not quite as distinct with their advocacy and indeed if you are trying to be sneaky it does not help to join front organisations.

      @@rattlemespoons577actually, the Soviet Union never claimed to be communist, it was a socialist state. In the constitution of the USSR it says it’s socialist. The west called it communism because the people running it were “communists” but the state was never communist. It’s a contradictory statement to call a state communist in the first place, because communism is a classless, STATELESS, moneyless society. Do some goddamn research instead of making factless claims on the internet. I know, very hypocritical of me, but at least I have done actual research.
