Hillary Is a Menshevik
American Thinker ^ | July 30, 2016 | E. Jeffrey Ludwig

Posted on 07/30/2016 5:45:22 AM PDT by Kaslin

The Bolshevik/Menshevik crisis we saw in the first stages of the Russian Revolution is bubbling to the surface in our country through the Democratic Party.

The Democratic Party today reflects an updated version of the Bolshevik/Menshevik split of the early 20th century. In 1903, the Russian Social-Democratic Labor Party (communist) split into two opposing groups, the Mensheviks and the Bolsheviks. Vladimir Lenin, leader of the pro-dictatorial Bolsheviks, defined the difference between the two groups, as one being "hard" (Bolsheviks) and the other being "soft," led by Leon Trotsky, Georgi Plekhanov, Julius Martov, and others. Both were for the overthrow of capitalism and of the Tsarist regime, but the Mensheviks would allow for a somewhat broader range of views within the communist apparatus. Ironically, the meeting that sealed this split was held in London, a center of capitalism, where differences could be aired, and even revolutionary groups could meet without fear of reprisal.

After the outbreak of the Russian Revolution, Russia withdrew from WWI, and a long civil war raged between the two parties, which the Bolsheviks won. A dictatorship of the proletariat was happily introduced by Lenin, but because of weak production, particularly in agriculture, there was some modification in the direction of private ownership under Lenin's New Economic Policy. When Lenin died, the dictatorial confiscation of private property was reinstated under Josef Stalin, Lenin's successor. Trotsky had to escape to Mexico, where one of Stalin's hired assassins murdered him.

Neither Bolshevik or Menshevik are desirable, but I am not too sure she isn’t a Bolshevik merely acting like a Menshevik for now.

Indeed. One must always remember the vagina. It’s central to her whole campaign. The title of Menshevik obscures her most important feature.

I could come up with a shorter prefix that means the same basic thing. But it wouldn’t be polite.

It fits very well but she is much more evil than that.

Many kulaks were murdered. Others left their homes and fled as far as Siberia. Their properties and possessions were confiscated. It was one of the most horrible episodes in the history of humankind of a government dispossessing and brutally enslaving and killing its own people.


Government-engineered famine.

Total dead: 7 million.

In old english common law there was a term applied to a certain type of female: “The Common Scold”. You can find a description on your favorite search engine. It is described as a troublesome, loud female who went about disturbing the peace and tranquility.

As related to Shrillary, she’s all that and more, to the point where she’s an enemy to our Nation and our way of life.

Under English Law, common treatment was to subject her to the “Ducking Chair”. It was a chair suspended from a long boom which extended out over a river, lake or pond. When the scold became unbearable, she’d be tied into the chair and ducked underwater several times.

That would NOT be severe enough punishment for her OR Slick, IMHO, in light of the fact that HE sold our missile secrets to the Ching-changs.....as well as being in on the sale of our uranium to the Russkies, among numerous others.

It also occurs to me that a ducking chair might be a whole lot simpler than waterboarding, and even more effective. The effectiveness could be dialed in by varying the dwell time of the chair staying underwater.

Hillary's campaign slogan "Stronger Together" ("Piu Forti Insieme" in Italian) is fascist in character. Her agenda calls for the control of the corporate estate through regulation and strangulation, not through direct expropriation.

She is no kind of communist.Her politics are closer to Mussolini than to Trotsky.

The article is correct. Hillary’s greed is not any indication of support for capitalism, and of course she wants to destroy capitalism. But she is also very greedy and even with capitalism destroyed she wants to make sure that she herself has a mountain of gold.

As are all democrats! ..they really are the US Fascist party more so then the US Socialist party though the difference in between hard core fascism & hard core socialism is a difference in kind and not effect.

Remember when Goebbels was asked to define the difference between German Fascism (Nazism) & Socialism he said something to the effect, ‘If I own (control) the man who owns the means of production why own the means of production?’

Trump will not call hHillary out on any of this. His game will be more direct, more personal and far more punishing. He intends to break her down to a level that will demonstrate her complete incompetence. He wants voters to see her angry, belligerent, ignorant, sick, and hateful. In other words, to expose her for who she truly is.
