I have been warning about these various communist organizations and the movement in general on here and elsewhere for nearly 25 years. Most go directly back to the 60s and 70s. When I began doing it here years ago, there were actually people who accused me of exaggerating or even being “paranoid”. They were upset at me for using the then-dreaded “C-word” to describe what these groups and the movement were really about.
I know the feeling about people laughing off the threat and saying it could never happen here. I think much of it is normalcy bias. They will be in denial as they are being led to the railroad car.
“When I began doing it here years ago, there were actually people who accused me of exaggerating or even being “paranoid”.”
I never got that treatment, but instead I’m just ignored by the Germans, I mean Americans, thinking “It can NEVER happen here, not in this wonderful country that is the envy of the world.”
And, sadly, I do think it will take a bloodbath for enough people on our side to finally ‘get it’. And then they’ll try to get out, but find themselves locked out by the rest of the world...because they waited too long.
