I can only despair at the level of political awareness and consciousness in North America. The don’t seem to understand the distinction between left and right. The ultra-liberal Woke movements and even George Soros are described ‘Marxists’ (sic). This level of political illiteracy is frankly breathtaking. Marxist traditionally place emphasis on class struggle, not identitarian, Woke liberalism. As the man himself (Marx) once remarked ‘If that is Marxism I am not a Marxist” When people say that this or that American politician is a “Marxist,” or that they “embrace Marxism,” what they are really saying is, “I don’t know anything… Read more »
Marxism embraces the idea that it’s OK to steal from people. The rationale of why they say it’s OK has simply changed over the decades.
Your attempt to chastise people into using the correct terminology for each successive rationale is wholly immaterial. Stealing is wrong and the name Marx will be forever linked to those who say otherwise.
Greetings from Berlin.
From a 1938 paper from the Institute for Propaganda Analysis, on how to identify Propaganda. “WE ARE fooled by propaganda chiefly because we don’t recognize it when we see it. It may be fun to be fooled but, as the cigarette ads used to say, it is more fun to know. We can more easily recognize propaganda when we see it if we are familiar with the seven common propaganda devices. These are: 1 The Name Calling Device 2 The Glittering Generalities Device 3 The Transfer Device 4 The Testimonial Device 5 The Plain Folks Device 6 The Card Stacking… Read more »
Bravo, Alexis!
And beside this, are there any educators left in America, who are not Marxist???
It is hard to believe there are any there who are not.
Both BLM and Antifa self identify as Marxist. I take that to mean they are Statists and collectivists as opposed to small government individualists. The latter is the traditional American idea and those who embrace it see their opponents as un-American. I think they are right.
Irony is, most of the people throwing these terms around will tell you, “I know all about Marxism, its what those dirty rat commie bastards in Russia are’. Its interesting to actually READ Marx (fact is, most of these people aren’t capable of reading anything that won’t fit on the screen of their phone, and this includes the morons in Antifa calling themselves “Marxists”, as well as many posting on here, but I digress) if there is any one concept that is central to Marxism, its the idea that the “proletariat” as those that PRODUCE, should control the means of… Read more »
And…the media said Biden won. End of story. Coming January Biden will be president till Harris takes over.,
I assume you are being ironic. If not, it is my understanding that the Electoral College is the body that names the President-elect, not the media.

I believe Dominion were clearly involved in a conspiracy to elect Biden as President of the United States. Personally I followed the election and have no doubt that boxes of ballots were smuggled into counting venues in the early morning and used to swing the election to Biden because the electronic means had failed. So the conspirators used both manual and electronic means to ensure that Biden, possibly the worst candidate to ever run for President, was elected. If there is any justice left on the United States then this result will be overturned and the perpetrators indicted and sent… Read more »
It is absurd to be told that Soros and company are Marxists, he and his affiliates want power and control and are using the left wing idiots to try to bring it about. Trump knows this which explains why he is anti-globalist.
Dead on. Antifa is the perfect example of what is meant by the term “useless idiots”. These people really need to crack a history book, and maybe get their moms or someone to read about “the night of the long knifes” in June of 1934.
You are right, these things like “the night of the long knifes” should be taught in the schools, but then again, all education system is infiltrated and poisoned with leftist Marxist indoctrinated propagandist, who have no idea about what a life was look like in USSR and elsewhere, where commies were (are) in power and how free market without big gov actually works to benefit everyone in society.
the “Night of the long knifes” happened in Nazi Germany, a fascist purge of the useful idiot Sturm Truppen…
must be all that high faluntin’ Marxist book larnin….
History and its lessons should be studied in the schools.
Yeah, it’s laughable that some comments here talk about 100 year old models of Marxism-Leninism that present day marxists have themselves discarded long ago, and try to define marxism with that. They have no understanding what’s going down at the moment, as well as no appreciation of what life was like in USSR, as you say. Free market and small government forever!
