Leftists, Progressives and Socialists
One of the greatest sources of confusion and deception is the difference between leftists, progressives, socialists, communists and fascists. I thought about this as I caught a glimpse of the Oct. 2 “One Nation” march on Washington. The participants proudly marched with banners, signs and placards reading “Socialists,” “Ohio U Democratic Socialists,” “International Socialists Organization,” “Socialist Party USA,” “Build A Socialist Alternative” and other signs expressing support for socialism and communism. They had stands where they sold booklets under the titles of Marxism and the State, Communist Manifesto, Four Marxist Classics, The Road to Socialism and similar titles.
The gathering had the support of the AFL-CIO, Service Employees International Union, stalwarts of the Democratic Party such as Al Sharpton and organizations such as the NAACP, the National Council of La Raza, Green for All, the Sierra Club, and the Children’s Defense Fund.
What goes unappreciated is that socialists and communists have produced the greatest evil in mankind’s history. You say, “Williams, what in the world are you talking about? Socialists, communists and their fellow travelers care about the little guy in his struggle for a fair shake! They’re trying to promote social justice.” Let’s look at some of the history of socialism and communism.
And now… the rest of the story. …..
Historically Marxist governments have made communism work by murdering civilian populations considered non-critical citizens until those populations are either exterminated or reduced to a level an unproductive communist government can support; and by cannibalizing assets they stole from arrested and killed Citizens. Some in the Obama Government openly state they support dismantling capitalism, but does their endgame include destruction of the United States? If capitalism, free enterprise were dismantled most jobs in America would be vaporized. There would be millions of non-critical U.S. Citizens a Maxist/Socialist Government would not want to support, especially older Citizens.
