Because a majority of Americans still hated communism back then?

The main reason it failed is because democrats use to love this country. Now, only 29% are very proud to be an American. That party is doomed if it has no love of their country

Let me help you out

This current flavor of communism, or Marxism, was imported by the OSS when they brought over the leaders of the Frankfurt School.

Herbert Marcuse and his pals thought they could use the same class warfare tactics used in the Russian revolution. However IIRC it was Horkheimer telling Marcuse that that won't work in America because everyone has the ability to earn money, afford a living space, own a car, take a vacation. There was no class that was prevented from achieving financial independence.

That's when they turned to cultural warfare. They target society's real or perceived marginalized people. Gays, minorities, women, etc. They especially liked the idea of riling up Blacks because they were known for emotinal outbursts and the white people's sin of slavery.

Does AOC still have her arse up in the air while bowing down to Mayor Commie and his radical muslim buddies?


I may have overlooked that one. Do you care to repost for research purposes?

I have no idea on that, but it wouldn't surprise me as that really is the socialist view of wealth. For a recent example I am aware of, it's the philosophy underlying Adam Schiff's recent comment about how much everyone could get if we were to split up Elon's trillion in wealth (mixing it, either intentionally or not, with liquid assets) among all Americans.

Everyone would get a check for $7,500 and a week or two later the poor would still be poor but then there would be tens of thousands of extra unemployed due to converting Elon's wealth to liquidity.
