@michaelconnors1301 2 года назад

Ridgerunner21, what did you think of the quotes Kennedy read from Omarova's own papers (written in the last two years) in which she proposed nationalizing all bank accounts , bankrupting our fossil fuel companies, and having the federal government set wages, gas, and food prices? Did they irritate you? (Sorry, I just remembered that Seth didn't include those in his clips. Go to 3:40. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-BHNPDrVBCC8.html) P.S.

It was impossible to resign from being a Komsomol or any other youth organization in USSR. If you actually had a mental capacity to do that, you'd be under KGB radar 24/7. For literally anything. I remember tearing off the USSR star badge from the chest of my classmate (by accident), and my parents were called to school for investigation, questioned as if they were the enemies of the country. After that, my dad kept like a dozen of those star badges in the drawer - just in case anyone of his children did the same again. It was a running joke in our house ten years after USSR collapsed. In a soviet regime, there was no freedom to refuse. Either you did as asked, or you were the enemy of the country. Or in jail. That senator is dreaming flowers about USSR.

As one of the six people in the United states who have actually read The Communist Manifesto and Das Kapital, I feel qualified to say that nobody in the Republican Party who throws around the term "Communist" actually knows what it means. For Republicans it is tantamount to calling someone the boogeyman and is just intended to conjure up irrational fear of the unknown.
