I would say Xi Jiping because I hold him responsible for the Chinese Virus and the virus is the only reason Trump is not president today. Prior to the virus, we had the strongest economy in American history but everything changed with the virus that Communist China caused. Its because of this that led to the failed Biden presidency and the empowerment of socialist forces in our government. If not for the virus, jobs would be plentiful, the economy would be booming, manufacturing will be returning to the USA and Trump would definitely have been re elected in a landslide despite political correctness and cancel culture. Everything with the border invasion also relates to Biden being president.
Now there is hardly any manufacturing left in the U.S. which relates to the supply chain issues and also to the initial lack of medical equipment during the early days of Chinese Virus. Under Trump, we became the largest producer of oil and gas in the world, with countless well paying jobs, and Biden's first day in office he blocked the Keystone XL pipeline and tried to stop the expansion of oil leases in the Gulf. I'm from Louisiana and oil and gas is critical to our economy here and we support our plant and pipeline and offshore workers.
Oh yeah, Marxism has really blossomed in American politics. It was anti-communism that led so much of America’s policymaking in the middle of the last century, from McCarthyism, to the coups and support of right-wing dictators and death squads all over Central and South America for decades, the Korean and Vietnam Wars, the military support of the Afghan Mujahideen and blowback of 9/11, the repression of anti-war movements and black empowerment organizations by the FBI, using communist paranoia as an excuse for COINTELPRO, followed by the saturation of American cities with cocaine that led to the crack epidemic of the 90’s.
This list could be much longer, but I’m going to stop here.
I’d like to know how the teachings of Karl Marx can ever compare to the amount of damage done by the policies of anti-communism in American life. Explain how the teachings of Marx ever caused anywhere near the harm in America that the fight against it did.
This may be most horrifying post I've read in a long time because I believe you are serious.
Spend thirty minutes studying these communists who each leveraged Marx. I'll leave many out.
Chairman Mao
Stalin
Pol Pot
Lenin
Castro
Ceausescu
The succession of nuts running North Korea
My guess is you are simply too ignorant of history to know better but fighting, in various ways, these communists last century kept these monsters and several others from killing even more millions of people and likely taking over most of the world.
He's not the only Canadian who has decided to comment on domestic US issues. They all get somewhat miffed if the favor is returned.
Then there's the guy in Germany who lectures about how our roads are too big.
