No " Marxism " in control of the Democratic Party

                 Many conservative thinkers have opposed  Marxist ideology since Joseph Stalin  turned " communist " Russia into a totalitarian, godless nightmare back in the Moscow Trial Days of the 1930s .

                But 100 years after the 1917 Bolshevik Revolution - " Ten Days that Shook The World " - there is much plain ignorance about  Marxism and very little understanding of how  Stalin and his gang betrayed the principles  and high idealism of the early years of the revolution.

        More than a century later -and with a post- communist Russia -  " Marxism " is equated with the grotesque " identity politics " and " political correctness "  intolerance of the Democratic Party.    And vicious RACIAL POLITICS replaces CLASS STRUGGLE agendas. 

               Back in the 1930s a self -respecting Marxist could give critical support to FDR and his New Deal . But in 2020  no real Marxist and no honest democratic socialist can support the Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden, a pillar of the ONE PERCENT Establishment and a tool of the sinister capitalist , imperialist Deep State.

    As a long time DEMOCRATIC socialist - like the late Erich Fromm influenced by both Marxism and Freud and religious humanism-  I can only hope that  the mainstream news media will give some voice to "  MINORITY REPORT "  socialists not pimping for phony Democrats .

The STATE is no substitute for God -even under Socialism

I am familiar with the speeches of Black Muslim leader Malcolm X on the topic of community self-defense . I am also " educated " -by both Marxist ideology and Catholic social philosophy away from self-appointed street violence..

.. Both Martin Luther King and Malcolm X connected racism with capitalism , connected racism with imperialism. Neither King nor Malcolm were suckered into treacherous Democratic Party politics. As a democratic socialist I can understand why " socialist " Bernie Sanders was warned that the Democratic Party would never take even his milk-toast socialism seriously . Marx said long ago that "the ruling ideas are the ideas of the ruling class " . Despite some minimal FREE SPEECH rights in the USA SOCIALISM will always be anathema in the mainstream news media.

Sad to see , however , so many " far Left " political parties and organizations embracing Stalinist tactics , rejecting the FREE SPEECH , FREE THOUGHT tradition of Western Civilization. I am beginning to think that SOCIALISM can only be realized by a quasi-religious-humanist movement . The STATE is no substitute for God ! And now in 2020 even SCIENCE is a god that failed.

@Ron Ruggieri I do not suggest threatening or terrorizing anybody. But, when the state and police do it to you, it has to be addressed. Since it is not being addressed, I can understand why some people want to kill them. It has to do with rights, freedoms, and protecting citizens. We should have a civil police force to deal with those matters.

@Ron Ruggieri My posts often get taken down because we have a media instead of news. If you challenge common wisdom, you might be a danger to society. I usually suggest using ak47s on police and public officials, especially in Warick. I'd bet not many of those stay up.
