My guess is that these goals, written by Skousen, are his vision of what was happening in America at the time, and how these things could lead to Communism.

Well, it's basically just a laundry list of everything the guy dislikes and then attempts to link it with Communism.

It's obviously nonsensical and has almost nothing to do with any actual Communists(where's government control of the means of production?

Gets posted on FR about once a month where the not-very-bright ooh and aah over it.

They succeeded in most if not all their goals.
It is frightening...

sobering to consider how many of their goals the dems/stealth-commies have already achieved!

How do I explain her and other so-called communists in the US?

Freedom.

America allows people to openly advocate communism, but communism would never tolerate a political views contrary to communism advocated in countries controlled by communist governments.

In other words...as a result of the freedom we enjoy, it's a lot easier to advocate communism in the US than it was to advocate Democracy in the Soviet Union.

And THAT'S the difference between the two systems.

Just giving you intellectual heavyweights another opportunity to dazzle us with your insults. I would have pinged you when I posted it, but I knew I wouldn't have to.

Maybe they just traded Eastern Europe for South America.

Sounds like a plan or DemocRAT talking points to me. The only question is if they have managed to gain control of BOTH Political Parties.

Yep, look down the list, and it sounds just like today's far left.

Somebody took a big swing and a miss on that one.

19. Use student riots to foment public protests against programs or organizations which are under Communist attack.

Published in 1962, before Billy Ayers threw his first pebble at a riot cop.

Don't forget to check out the familiar faces in the thread trying to dismiss the list.
