The Communist revolution in Russia was Nov. 4th.
Several of my friends were there covering it for newspapers.
True story. The anti-communist social-democrat labor leader, the late Marx Lewis (yes his father named him after Karl Marx), once asked a group of us to ask him when he became an anti-communist. His reply was Nov. 4, 1917, and he wasn’t kidding
The Pulitzer Prize winning writer Isaac Don Levine was also in Russia back then and wrote about it. He was a lifelong anti-communist and was the man who took admitted Soviet spy Whitaker Chambers to the White House to see A.A. Abele in a quest to warn FDR about Soviet penetration there.
Yes, Bob Avakian is an old guy and his parents probably aren't around anymore.
Metaphorically though, based on what he's achieved and how much influence he has, he pretty much still is a kid living in his mom's basement.
“He was a lifelong anti-communist and was the man who took admitted Soviet spy Whitaker Chambers to the White House to see A.A. Abele in a quest to warn FDR about Soviet penetration there”.
What was FDR’s reaction? My guess is that he shrugged it off.
” I believe you are mentally ill, but I will still be prepared.”
I just wanted to second that.
There’s an upside to this: it’ll be open season with no bag limit.
“We will gather in the streets and public squares of cities and towns across this country, at first many thousands declaring that this whole regime is illegitimate and that we will not stop until our single demand is met:”
Splendid. Y’all bunch up just a little more. That’s it. Hold that pose. Smile. Wait for flash.
Heh. Very good.
The ideological forebearers of these people in Russia stole everything that my great-grandparents had worked for and, about 15 years later they beat my 74-year-old great grandfather to death.
I shall be glad to return the favor, if these a$$wipes come anywhere near me or my family.
Come on, Commie rat bastards, try and take something or hurt any of my family... I dare you!
Outstanding! LMAO!!! Funniest, most irreverent and twisted post not by me in weeks! LOL!!!
Way too good.
Lubing up my bumpstock
When Kilmer delivers that line in the movie, I get a little chill...
I have the Leupold on my sniper rifle zeroed at 50 yards, so anything from 10 to 100 yards will be well within the lethal zone. I can literally plug flies (stationary) at 50 yards with that thing.
;^)
LOL. Also notice how gold and silver played no useful role in the Puerto Rican conflagration* or other recent disasters.
*popular generalization of word "conflagration"
Are you saying we should leave a trail of EBT cards and Che T-Shirts up to your stand?
My Austrian StG58-based FAL is a tack driver. My eyes aren’t what they used to be, but I’m back to busting milk jug sized targets at the rifleman’s quarter mile since I put decent optics on it.
these are the loonie toons that are going to ‘emancipate humanity’?? by enslaving everyone???? Some people need to get off their high horses and walk that 3rd world crap back across the border
Draft them, and train them thoroughly the new (post-1988) and old (pre-1970s) way. Send them to take down Mr. Kim’s forces. If some of them do drugs and talk smack when coming back, refuse to listen to them. Teach the next generation to ignore them.
Don’t want to make the same mistake twice and have our grandchildren putting up with that demoralizing anti-soldier, anti-defense talk again.
Problem solved.
Basically the information (reportedly) never got to FDR. Remember, his two top aides were communists/sympathizers, Laughlin Currie (definitely Soviet operative) and Harry Hopkins (knowledgeable scholars are somewhat split as to whether Hopkins was a NKVD or GRU operative or just very pro-Soviet Union. More and more it looks like he was a Soviet asset/operative).
Hopkins’ assistant David Niles was reviewed in the Venona intercepts to have been “a contact of the KGB”. (see “Stalin’s Secret Agents: The Subversion of Roosevelt’s Government”, M. Stanton Evans and Herbert Romerstein, Threshold Editions, A Division of Simon & Schuster, 2012.
I trust both writers since I knew them for many decades and had long discussions about these issues.
Soooooooo...........yes on maxing out the credit card for preps ?
And they use totalitarian methods to oust what they consider a *regime*. Hypocrites.
But I also think they overestimate themselves.
Which does not make me feel any better about the situation. Especially since we are going to be on a planned vacation.
