The Buried Legacy of Hollywood Anti-Communism

Streisand, Penn, Baldwin, Sarandon, the Dixie Chicks, and Springsteen are among those to whom Lenin referred as “useful idiots.” They are people who think more highly of themselves than they ought- when they actually think at all. They have an audience, they’re loudmouthed, and they are invariably stupid.

We are being defeated by an enemy that will never take up arms. I can fight a physical fight. I can’t fight against this incremental sheeple scam system that is today’s seditious socialist. I personally do not posses the ability to tell someone to go too hell and have them ask me for directions (tact). I try but as folks see in my posts here....I’ve still a lot to learn.

I try by voting with my dollars, my patronage, my time, a little peer pressure to make sure ass-hats within my voice and reach understand my opinion on such creep from communists and the dumb-asses that don’t have the ability to recognize the MSM for what it is . A digital knife to the heart of our beloved Republic. A war of words is being lost IMO.

Stay safe !

Almost 50% percent of the electorate describes itself as moderate. We need to point out to these folks that all these socialist proposals never fix jack.

Studies of Head Start never show any educational benefit, yet we can’t kill it. Soccial Security is the proverbial Ponzi scheme. Medicare is heading of a cliff without new funding, and docs don’t want to accept new Medicare patients. Forget about Medicaid, that’s worse. We always wind up losing more liberties and paying more taxes.

Thanks neverdem.

Bump for later.

"A digital knife to the heart of our beloved Republic."

Brilliant. So true.

[Travis McGee]

Yep, very true. Gramsci was much smarter than Lenin. His strategy has worked brilliantly.

Well there is the original “The Manchurian Candidate”.

I have chosen prevention vs repair regarding my health and physical wellness........I’m insured about three deep in PPO , HMO and Tri Care with a fall back to the VA if times get tough. But honestly I trust no individual or institution to provide medical care for me .....confidence is loooooooooooooow !

Hope yer well Doc !

Stay safe !

The trick is to tell them to absolutely not open the door marked *Do Not Enter* and to under no circumstances take the path found beyond it. Curiousity will get the better of them, of course and as they go bounding down it, they'll find not only where it leads but that it was paved with their good intentions.

We are being defeated by an enemy that will never take up arms.

They are facing adversaries who will.

I can fight a physical fight. I can’t fight against this incremental sheeple scam system that is today’s seditious socialist.

Yes you can, and it's to be expected that you might be better at one than the other. I have even heard it said that you can walk down the street and chew bubblegum at the same time, though you occasionally have to pause to read the instruction manual.

[Squantos]

I just look at the pictures.......:o)

[Little Ray]

I’m a moderate centrist - just like Ann Coulter...

[Nateman]

I could not find the movies by title, I did the search by producer , if that’s any help.

[Darkwolf377]

This is a strange little flick -- at one point the narrative comes to a screeching halt for ten minutes while Marvin and Keenan Wynn lift weights and compare builds

For this scene alone, I can't believe this thing hasn't been remade. (blech!)

[notdownwidems]

I always thought the great semi-autobiography Out of the Night (true story of a communist apparatchik, his eventual disillusionment with Stalinism and his capture and torture by the Gestapo) would have made a great movie. Maybe I will write that screenplay myself!
