Evil is just a word. State Socialism is a goal.

They don't care if they can do it better, if you mean being more economically successful. If they can capture the USA then they don't have to be better. They cannot imagine that America won't still have the strongest military in the world and the strongest economy after America becomes Communist. After that particular transformation it will be Russia or China that is the military big dog. The American military will not be supportable any more after only a few years and the other autocracies who have shed some of the left idealism for practical development will run over the Communist American entity. Somewhere in the mix the Saracens will be trying their last great Jihad before they run slap out of resources after the US quits buying their oil because the US is descending into national pauperdom.
When the US has dissipated its strength Russia and China won't buy Arabian oil any more either. They will colonize it.

They can proceed in their stupidity 100% free of any consequences.At least until the show trials. Once the Left is Ascendant and Supreme they will start eating their own in earnest. Everybody then becomes Trotsky and Budenny.

That reminds me of this story:
‘A guy thought he was dead, but in reality he was very much alive. His hallucination became a real problem for his family and they finally took him to see a psychiatrist.
‘After spending many laborious sessions trying to convince the guy he was still alive, the psychiatrist tried one last approach. He opened his medical book and proceeded to show the man that dead men don’t bleed.
‘After a mind-numbing study, the man seemed convince that dead men don’t bleed, and the psychiatrist asked: “Do you now agree that dead men don’t bleed?” “Yes I do” the man replied.
‘”Very well, then,” the psychiatrist said. He took out a pin and pricked the man’s finger. Out came a drop of blood.
‘The doctor asked. “What does that tell you?” “Oh my goodness!” The patient exclaimed as he stared doubtfully at his finger.” “Dead men DO bleed!!”’

Gorby can be given some of the “credit” for bringing down the Soviet Union, at least fro bringing it down a modicum faster than its already established trajectory. He was using a monkey wrench as a screw driver in attempts to adjust the machinery.

To those on the Left, the Eternal Refrain is always the same: TRUE communism was never tried and we’ll certainly do better.
The delusion never dies.

No, they don't see the evil, to them it's good.You are right. To a communist, anything that furthers the cause of communism, is good, moral and just, so if killing 100 million people furthers communism, to them, it is good. I often wonder why these people are such fanatics about it. I think it is their "religion" so they are dedicated to their religion.

Forgetting? Most of them never admitted it, even when evidence was shoved under their noses.

Hardly. They’ve been biding their time for nearly 40 years; plotting, manipulating, exploiting & eating away at America like termites. Barack 0bama was their coming out party. Bill Ayers was *not* the only one.

The left never *recognized* Communism as being “evil”.Case in point....American Commies demanding that we stay out of WWII...UNTIL Hitler invaded the USSR.
To: ReformationFan
True believers never admit the failings of Communism.
Stalinists lie. ALWAYS.

They all believe in their hearts that they will be among the elite leadership, the exempt, free to go to their seashore or mountainside dachas, the no-wait clinic, the elite grocery store...
In truth, the useful idiots will be tossed aside.
