Pravda : American decent into Marxism

Unread postby AlexdeLarge » Sat 30 May 2009, 05:31:10

It must be said, that like the breaking of a great dam, the American decent into Marxism is happening with breath taking speed, against the back drop of a passive, hapless sheeple, excuse me dear reader, I meant people.

True, the situation has been well prepared on and off for the past century, especially the past twenty years. The initial testing grounds was conducted upon our Holy Russia and a bloody test it was. But we Russians would not just roll over and give up our freedoms and our souls, no matter how much money Wall Street poured into the fists of the Marxists.

Those lessons were taken and used to properly prepare the American populace for the surrender of their freedoms and souls, to the whims of their elites and betters.

First, the population was dumbed down through a politicized and substandard education system based on pop culture, rather then the classics. Americans know more about their favorite TV dramas then the drama in DC that directly affects their lives. They care more for their "right" to choke down a McDonalds burger or a BurgerKing burger than for their constitutional rights. Then they turn around and lecture us about our rights and about our "democracy". Pride blind the foolish.

Then their faith in God was destroyed, until their churches, all tens of thousands of different "branches and denominations" were for the most part little more then Sunday circuses and their televangelists and top protestant mega preachers were more then happy to sell out their souls and flocks to be on the "winning" side of one pseudo Marxist politician or another. Their flocks may complain, but when explained that they would be on the "winning" side, their flocks were ever so quick to reject Christ in hopes for earthly power. Even our Holy Orthodox churches are scandalously liberalized in America.

The final collapse has come with the election of Barack Obama. His speed in the past three months has been truly impressive. His spending and money printing has been a record setting, not just in America's short history but in the world. If this keeps up for more then another year, and there is no sign that it will not, America at best will resemble the Wiemar Republic and at worst Zimbabwe.

Pravda: all the propaganda that's fit to print since 1912.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'T')hey care more for their "right" to choke down a McDonalds burger or a BurgerKing burger than for their constitutional rights.

Nice try, Igor. Is this for real? Russia lecturing us for not being "American enough"? Twilight Zone..

But as in all good propaganda, some truth:

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'T')hese past two weeks have been the most breath taking of all. First came the announcement of a planned redesign of the American Byzantine tax system, by the very thieves who used it to bankroll their thefts, loses and swindles of hundreds of billions of dollars. These make our Russian oligarchs look little more then ordinary street thugs, in comparison. Yes, the Americans have beat our own thieves in the shear volumes. Should we congratulate them?


Those last two lines about the oligarchs are rich, the author freely admits the system in Russia is a big sham, lol.

EDIT: Oh, another gem from the piece:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', '[')b]Senator Barney Franks, a social pervert basking in his homosexuality (of course, amongst the modern, enlightened American societal norm, as well as that of the general West, homosexuality is not only not a looked down upon life choice, but is often praised as a virtue) and his Marxist enlightenment, has led this effort. He stresses that this only affects companies that receive government monies, but it is retroactive and taken to a logical extreme, this would include any company or industry that has ever received a tax break or incentive.

I guess Russia doesn't have gay people. Mmkay. My head is spinning here, I guess I forgot that communism really is dead and Pravda is now the Voice of Fascism.

This writer sounds like a LATOC member, minus peak oil of course -- the Russians think oil is abiotic.

The article was reprinted from a blog. Curious, I read some of his work.

It's amazing that one has to go to a Russian writer to get the truth. I thought readers of this web site would know this by now. I particularly liked his closing line:

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'T')he proud American will go down into his slavery with out a fight, beating his chest and proclaiming to the world, how free he really is. The world will only snicker.

In any great conflict, there is risk of becoming what you hate. What irony, the rich capitalists of the late 19th century sent their offspring to the colleges of the north east to get a liberal education. The October Revolution had just occurred. Marx became the darling of the liberals. The seeds of communism were sown in those young minds in the first quarter of the twentieth century. Those seeds germinated during the Great Depression.

Now in the first decade of the twenty-first century we are going to witness the full flowering of socialism in America.

Communism is very appealing to the very bright and the very young. What a marvelous idea that all will contribute according to their ability and receive according to their need. No one will go hungry. All will have a place to live. In this great paradise, all will be equal.

Too bad that this utopia is based on a great lie: None of us are equal! We are all very unequal individuals. The Soviet Union collapsed because communism succeeded. Almost everyone became equally dispossessed. The only thing that survived this madness was the most sinister of the Soviet bureaucracies, the KGB.

Those that are setting us on this course are intent on damning us all to a Procrustean hell. As in Russia, the utopian dream will devolve into a dystopia.

SO... if John McCain was currently the president, then everything would be different? I highly doubt it. These clowns are all just talking heads, with the same corporate masters, reassuring the sheep as they lose their jobs, homes, 401K, dirty magazines and of course, the anal lubes.

What is Ironic is that Uncle Sam under the rule of "The One" is now more Marxist/Socialist than the Russians and the Chinese.

Both parties are reading from the same play book. There is not a dimes worth of difference between the two of them. That is why the Republicans lost.

Conservatives would identify with Russians. The white Russians fought a long and bloody civil war with the Reds. The Reds won and twenty two million people died for the common good.

I don't know if you're being sarcastic or not, but fascism it is. I saw a lot of ranting about jews too over on that Pravda site.

But Pravda aside, my problem with Russia stems from 1) any serious journalist who criticizes the government winds up dead, and 2) that episode where they left all that radioactive stuff all over London. Britain should be ashamed of itself for taking that one lying down.

never thought i'll be protecting Russia here, but--
1) have you thought that any serious journalist has other things to be killed for aside of criticizing the government;
2) special services were killing their renegades since the beginning of time. And as far as I am aware of, scotland yard had not find anything worth looking at at that case.

If we can use Pravda as a source can I use the daily star and the national enquirer as well?

Thats different from here. No serious journalist who would criticize Obama would even be hired by the MSM, and if one somehow gets into the White House press conference he is given an assigned seat in the back of the room from where he can watch the pre-scripted and pre-approved softball questions being asked by the pre-approved suckups in the front row. :roll:

Only the National Enquirer had the guts to break the sleazeball John Edwards paying for sex with campaign money and fathering a "love child" scandal when the rest of the US media were staging a cover-up for him.

And now Pravda has a big scoop that Obama is a socialist.
