Half of Millennials Want to Live Under Communism or Socialism? Let’s Give Them the Chance!

One-half of Millennials and one-third of Americans would prefer to reside in a socialist or communist nation instead of a capitalist democracy, according to the poll.

"Nearly one-in-five Millennials consider Joseph Stalin and Kim Jong-un 'heroes,' according to a Thursday poll. The poll demonstrated an increase in acceptance of socialism and communism among American Millennials and was released by the Victims of Communism Memorial Fund. One-half of Millennials and one-third of Americans would prefer to reside in a socialist or communist nation instead of a capitalist democracy, according to the poll." Here's some numbers. Twenty-three percent of Americans between 21 and 29 consider Stalin a hero. Twenty-six percent of them consider Lenin a hero. These are two of the biggest mass murderers in world history. Twenty-three percent think Kim Jong-un of North Korea is a hero. One-fifth of Millennials surveyed had a positive opinion of Karl Marx.

The study also found that 71% of Millennials could not pinpoint the definition of communism. They just like it. But they don't know how to define it. Communism was defined right in front of them; they couldn't choose it. They didn't know what it was. Eighty percent, 80% of Millennials did not know how many lives were lost as a result of communism. They are being taught of the virtues of communism. They are being propagandized and indoctrinated with the utopian aspects of communism.

no surprise there. capitalism is failing the young people. these polls/discussions about socialism being more popular than capitalism are usually loaded with inaccuracies as well. for instance - these polls are usually done by YouGov from what I've seen and they usually word the question along the lines of - "do you support bernie sanders or AOC style socialism in the USA?" and the accurate response is neither of those people are socialists. in the US, we equate social democracy and "the government doing stuff" with socialism even though it's not. so what younger people are most likely siding with here are social democratic politicians like Bernie rather than actual Socialism.

also capitalism isn't democratic.

utter bullshit.

here's the poll - it mentions nothing of the sort

communism isn't taught in the US so of course Americans don't know what it is. in my anecdotal experience though, young people do know what it is while older Americans basically define totalitarianism in it's place.

But they don't know how to define it. Communism was defined right in front of them; they couldn't choose it. They didn't know what it was.
no government, no classes, no money w/ communal owned means of production

Eighty percent, 80% of Millennials did not know how many lives were lost as a result of communism. They are being taught of the virtues of communism. They are being propagandized and indoctrinated with the utopian aspects of communism.
the soviet union wasn't communist, socialist, or marxist. they were a bloated corrupt totalitarian bureaucracy. sometimes called red fascism.

“It shocks the conscience that more Americans today believe the U.S. President is a bigger threat to world peace than the most brutal dictators in the world, and that four-in-ten Americans believe that their country is a ‘racist’ nation,” says Marion Smith, Executive Director of the Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation. “This represents a total failure of our education system, not just in schools but also a basic dishonesty in our media and popular culture. When one-in-four Americans want to eliminate capitalism and embrace socialism, we know that we have failed to educate about the historical and moral failings of these ideologies.”



actually it represents the opposite. millenials and gen z are the most educated generations ever. the US is the greatest sponsor of terrorism and greatest threat to world peace on the globe. more have died in the name of western colonialism, imperialism, slavery, and capitalism than any death toll provided against "communism".

Yet the USA is ranked at the bottom of education vs other countries. China blows the USA out of the water on education.

amongst the quality of our education yes. but in volume, the younger generations have way more college degrees than previous gens;



(keep in mind this chart is 4yrs old and doesn't include gen z cause they're mainly still in school)

Rush was never anything more than a source of negative crap that has done nothing but hurt this country, just as
like the Murdoch crew which were financed by the wealthy who found something more profitable than democracy
prior to the second world war and have been advocating for it and against democracy ever since.
They have bought out our politicians and with the tax money they never paid, turning the country from one which was once a Mecca for the common man,
into a hellhole for the common man, and a haven for the uber class.

EVMS doctor files appeal after judge denies request for injunction that would have allowed him to prescribe Ivermectin at Sentara hospital

https://www.wavy.com/news/local-new...as-suspended-hospital-privileges-for-14-days/

When you have your own office, you get to do pretty much as you wish, when you work at the corporate hospital, you follow
their policy or run into troubles ... I see the gentleman in question is of an age where he likely would have been able to obtain his degree
at a reasonable cost .
A younger MD would have the burden of massive loan payments that would likely preclude any such action.

I pick probably a 100 lbs a year of Chicken of the Woods and Hen of the Woods. The Hen of the Woods is right now the major fungus eating up all the dead ash trees. I don't care for mushrooms though.


Day 4 Chicken of the Woods




Day 8 Chicken of the Woods


Neat as can be !

The knowledge is there but it is not being taught. US Colleges today are Marxist indoctrination centers. But it starts in kindergarten.

how old are you? when were you last enrolled in college if at all? i don't mean that in an offensive way, i'm not a college grad.

to say what you're saying is just flat out incorrect. trust me when i say no grade school american child is taught anything related to communism lol nor are most college educated either. im a millenial who's been through the schooling system not too long ago, and i have friends who are teachers in high schools on the east coast. they were neither taught marxism or communism nor do they teach it. in fact i know more about marxism than they do and that's mainly because i bought a copy of das kapital by marx myself out of my own interest lol. i went to one of these teacher's family bbq's last summer and you would have laughed (or not) at how many family/friends approached him while we were having beers and asked if he was teaching marxism or critical race theory. he himself thought it was hilarious and if im being honest he is a center right type who listens to tim pool, joe rogan, jordan peterson, ect so this person isn't exactly "on my side" or whatever lol.

Not sure where you’re going with this.
Hospitals do have rules . Many designed for profit. Many designed to protect patients from experimentation by self promoting individuals. We’ve seen the ivermectin bullshit promoted by this guy. Promoter of quack cures.

I'm older than dirt. And I didn't say they were teaching Communism. They are indoctrinating them with Marxist ideology. Big difference.

You tell me why they need to have Drag Queens an Trans doing sex education in kindergarten. The unionized schools are all about Communisms. Look at the Southern California unions use of outright 1960s Russian Graphics.
