Marxism in 1,140 Words Exactly, Comrade

Hold your children and wish them well. Read this together—talk of hell.

Marxism is when you live without your own life, work without your own wealth, and play without your own passions. Under Marxism students are taught without truth or reason and people die without dignity or reason. All real Americans (in the General Patton-George C. Scott sense) love to fight Marxism. It’s purgatory and not something to leave your kids.

Thankfully (?) our constitution would force any Marxist regime to take the life out of Americans with bureaucracy first. Bullets would come only later and only for some. In exactly 1,037 words you can decide if Marxism might mean a bullet for you and your children. Exactness is important under Marxism, where discretion and deviation are punished. Consider the zero-tolerance policies at some schools—exactly zero discretion and responsibility given to or needed by local deans and principals. It’s all written down; follow the policy, ignore the individual. Look to your child’s school for many examples of Marxism-Communism-Socialism in the embryonic stages.

Historically—habitually—communist leaders execute or starve, relocate and reeducate people in groups, groups that include children. Grouping is very important in Marxism. As are teachers, police, and doctors, three vital careers for peopling groups or grouping people—no inner calling needed or helpful. Marxism creates so many government jobs, but so few others, government workers are charged with, not protecting some old constitution from enemies foreign and domestic, but with protecting the current state bureaucracy from the people, groups of the people…. Communist teachers, police, and doctors find success by promoting Leaders with pledges, songs, and stories, not with a love of knowledge, service, or healing. The false history, the single bullet, the rationed and incomplete healthcare—tell your children not to take it personally in the years to come. Those teachers, police and doctors will be doing the state’s work, by God….

Joseph Stalin was a bureaucrat before he was a killer. Only as a Soviet bureaucrat could he manipulate circumstances into mass murder, deaths into strategy. Stalin was a founding father of the Soviet Union and retained power for 30 years (When George Washington left highest office after just eight years he astonished the peasants and Czars of his day—and our congress today). Stalin changed language requirements for whole ethnic groups just to change back after a few years. He moved other groups (always groups) to frozen Siberia in trains and left them alone to die. Stalin confiscated every animal and tractor in vast areas of the Soviet Union, and had starving farmers shot for violating travel restrictions. His portraits were everywhere, his likeness saluted. Songs were written about Stalin; books were written for him, a peace prize named after him. The Soviet Union (but not Marxism) dissolved after just 75 years: Millions of communist citizens died because of the Hitler-Stalin Pact, thoughtless 5-year economic plans, and disastrous agricultural reforms. They died digging canals by hand; and they were shot for having too much wheat on hand. People were arrested, really tortured (how George Patton might define torture), tried by bureaucrats and many sentenced by Stalin himself. They confessed to a wide variety of crimes against the state on camera in courtrooms, often shot the same day. Their families received death certificates years later with fictional prison sentences and causes of death. This was possible because Soviet bureaucrats manipulated reality. Citizens lived hopelessly in ignorance—without truth or trust. Some loyal communists lost in their own bureaucracy remembered their Leader before their death, saying, “If only Comrade Stalin knew what was happening to me…” Stalin’s atrocities were ignored or downplayed up to his death; but within three years Stalin was denounced, then forgotten by officials in the USSR and college professors in the USA. President Washington was remembered fondly on his birthday for almost two centuries until, unbelievably, Americans chose to forget about Washington—like the Soviets did Stalin—but why?

History as a weapon can change a country. Why do our kids first think, He owned slaves, when they hear Washington’s name? Why do they stare blankly if asked about Stalin? Why do American textbooks still deny Soviet agents flooded Washington D.C. during the New Deal and again with the Second World War? Americans use history to celebrate, to honor, and to learn from life, not to manipulate it: Marxists use American history as a weapon—against America. The authors Haynes and Klehr document two interesting points about America and communism in their 2002 book, In Denial. First, since 1972 America’s two major historical journals had not published one anti-communist article…. Wow. Second, in the early 1930s many radical American Finns immigrated to Karelia, the Soviet Union’s borderland with Finland. During Stalin’s 1938 purge at least 141 former Americans were executed. Buried in mass graves, some had been born in Wisconsin, Michigan and California. One had traveled with her parents as a teenager. At 22 she was shot in the back of the head: Among the crimes cited by the police, she had “praised life in capitalist countries.” She’d been born in Minnesota, last name of Hill.

Just 50 years after Washington died, about 90 years before Stalin ordered those misguided Americans executed, another man—largely just one man—thought up Marxism as a way of life. Karl Marx thought ill of free-market capitalism and theorized on how to cure it: Marx knew how to overthrow capitalism with radical communism—he just didn’t know how to make communism work because it doesn’t. His theory that all history is based on economics led Marx to write the Communist Manifesto and to ignore individual success in history. The Great Man Theory of History (where we have learned of great men such as Washington) has no place in Marxist schools. Where capitalism thrives on great individuals, Marxism thrives greatly off individuals, once they become anonymous groups working for the state.

Marxist ideology led Stalin to kill millions of fellow Soviets and Mao to kill even more millions of Chinese, while Pol Pot killed far fewer millions of Cambodians and Castro killed mere thousands of fellow Cubans. Che Guevara was a cold-blooded executioner for a communist state near Florida: But California and New York have both promoted and ignored Marxism better than any of our universities. Ignorance is not a crime—but it should be in college and Hollywood.

Tell your children that under Marxism freedom is taken away until the government changes, but more important, under capitalism freedom is taken for granted until the government changes everything. Let them know Americans constantly create their governments while communists sometimes survive their government. Under capitalism Americans have to accept personal responsibility. Under communism Americans would have to accept the bullet below…or another.
