Leafing through archive materials, one can easily see the superiority of past over present. Today it became damn trendy to seek new solutions for old troubles (or just pretend they exist no more) but none of those perverted inventions, made by politically correct windbags, have yet proved their own worth.
The vital idea of Western anti-communism is fading away, contrary to reds that aren’t gone. Modern slackness and carelessness are the help that ruskies could only dream about before. End of the Cold War is a myth that benefits only russian neo-commies and their KGB dictator.
Without the vigilantism and awareness, West is becoming a pleasure-addicted defenseless easy-to-fool herd. But the historical memory and common sense are the best and most simple vaccination against this mental rotting. Easy to lose, easy to win – it depends only on you.
In 1947, a bold and original turn was made in the anti-communist propaganda. All basic knowledge about the red threat and vile commie plans was represented in the most popular form – a comic book named “Is this tomorrow”. Created more than 60 years ago, it remains relevant even now. Maybe even more than back in times when the Western people were a bit more vigilant, natural and strong.
Once the book was distributed freely, but now it’s not so easy to find even with all advantages of the Internet – not at the first time good old things are being forgotten.
Feel free to share it anywhere. Rise a new wave of anti-communist vigilance and kick some slacker minds awake!
This reminds me very much of Herbert Philbrick’s I Led Three Lives: Citizen, Communist, Counterspy. A very good book. Not available online as far as I know, very old, though maybe you are familiar with it. My copy is a prized possession in my collection. Herbert himself did work doing these “What If” style warnings for the public. Here is an example:
Philbrick infiltrated the Communists and got very high into their organization. One of the things I remember are the specific names of organizations he point3e to that were targeted for infiltration or had already been infiltrated, such as the ACLU, which is a very obscene leftist organization that is still around today, and seem to be prestigious (at least amongst leftists here in the States). The Russkies planned, and probably succeeded, in infiltrating pretty much everything, from education, to churches, to political parties right and left.

Hmm, the video I posted doesn’t seem to want to show. It says “video not found”, though it works when I opened it on my browser. Here it is again, maybe I made a mistake before:
If not, search “What is Communism?” on You Tube. It’s a black and white video posted by someone called “RedSquareEye”. You will surely enjoy it.

Thanks. I’ve changed URL so it showed up like was supposed to be.
Good old stuff often was a bit naive on “oppressed russians longing for Freedom”, but in general, VERY true up to genuine foresight. Just one of numerous examples:

They did not know then that there was such a thing as a people happy in their chains. I remember something from Machiavelli (from his Discourses on Livy), though I can’t remember the exact wording, that says something along the lines that it is impossible, or very difficult, for an enslaved people to keep any sort of freedom (if they were given it); they would quickly return again to the same slavery they were in before.
Westerners have the nasty habit of projecting their own wants and sensibilities on others, and assuming that if someone does not want what they want, they must be in need of a good talking to or a proper education, or maybe a bad childhood is to blame. I was talking to a fellow on a forum of mine who objected to me saying that the Russians were preparing their people for nuclear war with America. He said that there was no way the Russians would ever want to unleash nuclear annihilation on anybody, because all Russia cares about is just their own short term money interests. What a surprise he’s in for, the way things are going!

It’s even worse. Just wearing a yoke isn’t enough for ruskies to be happy. They can achieve absolute happiness only seeing everyone around wearing similar yokes. Or, like Shamil Basaev said “sitting neck-deep in shit, drag all people there”.
