They have good intentions, so, it doesn’t matter if they get results or not. They’re still more moral than conservatives who didn’t even try for utopia.

Leftists.....determined to build their glorious utopia, even if they have to kill every human on earth to do it.

No, that's wrong. From the article:

Of course, official Communist Party membership is a much different thing than being heavily influenced by Marxism and socialism, which Mandela certainly was, to the great benefit of his people

When they call him a Marxist, they mean it as a compliment.

My family is from behind the Iron Curtain and lived Apartheid.

They were not Party members and could never live as well as those that were.

Interesting to read the comments under the article. If those comments are any indication, it appears a very sizable percentage of HuffPost posters are out and out communist/socialists.

It still doesn’t make sense.

HuffPo, a lefty news org, tells us Mandela is a commie but that CNN, a commie news org, will not tell us that Mandela is a commie?

123 Golden Cage Mandela's "golden cage" is in sharp contrast with the treatment given by his comrade, Fidel Castro, to Cuban political prisoners.
