There is a continuously stronger chorus of voices in the Anglosphere claiming that capitalism has failed.
A rallying cry for decades from the political far left, the critique of capitalism stems from many misunderstandings but mainly from a total lack of awareness of what capitalism actually is and isn’t.
Comrade Volinsky got some bad news this week. A judge has ruled that his clients, Mary Lee Sargent and Arnold Alpert, do not have standing to sue the state for removing a historical marker honoring Communist Elizabeth Gurley Flynn. I have to wonder if he knew that and just took their money.
This follows up on my Adam Sexton Thinks Speech Codes Are “Interesting,” which involved a Democrat Communist State Senator’s demand that GOP State Senators not refer to illegal aliens as illegal aliens. The Communist State Senator later took to X to Comm-splain that referring to illegals as illegals is “dehumanizing”:
He owns 300 acres in the Berkshires, where he set up a commune. His “people” are engaged in protests and vandalism against Jews. He was behind the incident at Elbit Systems in Merrimack (my hometown). Heir to a fortune, he now lives in New Hampshire’s upper valley. He even has a NH Moose plate that reads ‘CCCP.’
Part one of this article looked at the rise in mental illness in our culture, especially the youth. The question is, where does it come from and why? Looking at the overwhelming influencers, namely teachers and social media, it begs the question of what has changed and who started it.
After reviewing the town of Hartford D.E.I. training and discovering that it is a front for cultural Marxism propped up by lies and unproven social theory, I felt obligated to address the Select Board, which mandated it for town employees.
California Gov Gavin “Hair Gel” Newsom (with that winsome smile and those You can trust me, I’m not like the others” eyes) just did this after the passing of Dianne “I’d take all the guns if I had the votes” Feinstein.
A group calling itself “Armed Queers Salt Lake City” was supposed to speak Wednesday night at the University of Utah (U of U?). They sell themselves as a socialist LGBTQ organization dedicated to self-defense, filling “a void in “anti-fascist organizing.”
Former Executive Councilor and failed candidate for governor Andru Volinsky is representing two folks suing the state of New Hampshire after it removed a historical marker honoring devoted communist and activist Elizabeth Gurley Flynn.
I overheard a conversation between two high school English teachers concerning one of their students’ written journals on class discussions and reflection. The student had voiced in writing pro-Trump remarks decrying socialist and Marxist ideologies that he claimed were virulent in American political ideologies.
The events of the past decade have underscored one clear reality, corporations are overly greedy and must be checked by governments. Indeed, that is the sole purpose of good government when it comes to overseeing the marketplace— to prevent large corporations from preying on the citizens.
I’m trudging through a book on Marxism and Fascism. It’s a good read. I’ve just been doing a lot of other things. Picking at it. But what I’ve gleaned so far reinforces details from other sources. Fascism isn’t just anything to the right of Socialism, which is everything.
Emphasis mine: Condemning capitalism is nothing new in this country. We’ve heard the angry criticisms all of our lives, and they weren’t novel when we were young. It’s tragic, really, that so many in the West see the tension between “capitalists” and their ideological opponents as merely a conflict between ideas about which economic system … Read more
The family is the enemy of Communism. Family members, in healthy families, live for each other; belong to each other … NOT for the State; to the State. In the Communist State, the ruled class are merely worker bees … indistinguishable, interchangeable, always replaceable. Family is just the opposite … you are an individual … … Read more
Have you ever heard of Mao’s Red Guards? They were students who had been indoctrinated and then engaged in domestic terrorism against anyone and anything that Mao perceived as an enemy or a potential threat. The Stasi, the East German secret police, routinely spied on East Germans through indoctrinated family members. Lenin said something to … Read more
It is fair to say that legalizing marijuana is the actual top priority of the NHGOP House “leadership.” And it is also fair to say that making Obamacare Medicaid Expansion permanent is the actual top priority of the NHGOP Senate leadership.
NH-NeverTrump Journal’s Mikey-G has been on quite the tear about the historical marker for some dead commie. Perhaps he believes it is his Brandenburg Gate moment … “Mr. Sununu, tear down this historical marker”:
Sun-King Sununu tries to be on both sides of the issue. I suppose it’s his version of Bill Clinton’s “triangulation” tactics. For example, Sun-King supports banning late-term abortions, as long as the ban is voluntary … which OBVIOUSLY means the ban is not really a ban.
Over at NH-NeverTrump Journal … the voice (some would say brain) of the NHGOP-Establishment … the obsession with a historical marker honoring a dead Communist continues. We have much, much, much bigger problems in New Hampshire than a historical marker for some Commie. The saying Nero fiddles while Rome burns applies … the NHGOP is … Read more
On March 24, 1984, my Marine Corps infantry company took off on a night training mission in South Korea. Tragically, the CH-53 helicopter behind mine lost altitude and slammed into a mountaintop. Thirty-three Marines died. Memories endure of helping carry bodies down that mountain.
