This post is directed to the Millenial and Gen Z generation. The true history of Socialism and Communism has been hidden from you. The purpose of hiding this truth is to gaslight your acquiescence when a ruling class quietly takes away your liberty under the guise of "making life equitable or fair for all people." This is a lie. Don't blindly follow the Pied Piper.

I'm certain manyof you have access to Amazon Prime through your own account or through family. This documentary may also be available through other sources... I haven't had the chance to look. But for the sake of our country and your future, please take time to watch this documentary. It is narrated by Ronald Reagan.

It is called "The Truth about Communism and Only the Brave are Free." It is the 3rd episode in a documentary series called The Hidden Agenda.

The episode shows historical footage which provides the indisputable proof of the terrible subjugation and oppression of Communism and how it ended up there from Socialism.

Fixed your link. Yes, you nailed it. Damn shame this lethal 'virus' has infiltrated the USA and so many are still blind to all the signs & symbols. If our younger generation doesn't hurry and wake the hell up it will be too late. Should be mandatory viewing for all. Not sure if this is the same 3rd episode but found the below.

"The Truth About Communism" documentary narrated by Ronald Reagan and introduction by Alexander Kerensky, 1962.

I would admonish younger people my age and below to read the Gulag Archipelago by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn and see the reasons to resist the insidious draw of socialism and it's inevitable consequence, communism.

Marxism is a particularly insidious ideology as it exists free from the constraints of moral foundations and instead emphasizes moral relativism to justify what otherwise civilized society would deem atrocities.

Joseph Stalin was one of the cool kids; poetic and righteous, with big ideas on how to make society finally perfect. It's always the same. On the road to "peace," which Marx defined as the "absence of opposition to socialism," is a whole lot of killing.

“Ooh the china virus is soooooo terrifying. 25 people have been killed by it and possibly dozens more, quick, shut the world”

“Let’s try socialism again, 200 MILLION dead people is worth it! Yay socialism”

Whenever I see socialism mentioned, currently, it is usually in the Nordic model flavor.

Doesn't seem to be the same type being shown in that series. Then the no true scotsman fallacies start flying from opposite directions.

ETA: Looks like I did it myself.

The Nordic Model isn't socialism. It is welfarism and that is a product of market economics, not socialist economics.

The truth about Socialism



It is called "The Truth about Communism


Your misunderstanding of both of those words notwithstanding, I’m going to go out on a limb here and say a documentary narrated by Ronald Reagan isn’t going to tell you the truth about either.

This is what I meant by no true scotsman fallacies.

The other side would say the examples in the OP are not socialism either.

I'm inclined to say there is some truth in both those statements.

Proverbs 16 KJV
25 There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.

Luke 6
43 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them. "For a good tree bringeth not forth corrupt fruit; neither doth a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. For every tree is known by his own fruit.

Socalism has again and again proven it's bad fruit. Isn't it time to let it go?

Great post!
We are fighting an uphill battle
against the results of "Common Core".

Think of the most ignorant person you know...

Now consider that half of the population
has been "dumbed down" to be more stupid
than that.

Wicked ass truth.

S&F

Rather, good luck to you
and your Devil worshipping friends...
you have been compromised.

Good post
It's truly sad how people young and older people have seamed to just stop caring about all things now days. I have a feeling the darkest days yet are coming fast upon us .

The definition of socialism is simply community ownership. Saying you have "indisputable proof" that it doesn't work and using people like Joseph Stalin to prove your point is as stupid as counter arguing that capitalism doesn't work because of say, George Bush.

Clearly,
those facts were deleted
from the curriculum of the last 3 decades.

Around the time that Nafta was created,
and the Chinese entry into the WTO.

Along with the repeal of the Glass-Steagal Act
courtesy of the Clinton administration.

These facts were scrubbed.

Well, the OP has them.

Were they really deleted or have people, millenials and gen z's, overcome a hurdle?

Maybe it really is a NWO and us older folk can't see the silver lining?

Yeah, I have my doubts, but I can't bring myself to knock them.

It isn't a fallacy.

It's the truth. Let me know when the Nordic Model proposes seizing the means of production.

That’s not going out on a limb, that’s you simply not engaging the material because it’s isn’t conducive to your own personal narrative.

Already you attacked the OPs on the assumption of a misunderstanding yet never explain why and didn’t even engage the material.

Pop shot and ran, nice. We use to do that to peoples doors in the middle of the night, knock and run off because we were bored little trolls.

Lol @ community ownership.

That's a whitewashed statement.

Socialism is the seizure of the means of production. Who seizes the means of production? Well, "the people" do!

Which people? Well, that's the question isn't it?

Typically we think of the means of production to be factories and equipment. That's part of it. But remember that socialism is a relic of the industrial Revolution, and at the time the means of production was people.
