American Logic:Nazis were communists, Chinese are communists, USSR was communists, we are good everyone else is bad.

I don't think many even know what a communist is or what communism is about. it just makes them feel upset when they hear the word because of constant corporate mass media conditioning.

One of the most hilarious things of late has been libs, who see themselves as a paragon of rationality, expose that they're just a different flavor of qAnon.
