"Socialism begets communism, and
communism is evil. It’s as evil as its nationalist cousin Nazism, and
between Pol Pot, Chairman Mao, Che Guevara, Fidel Castro, and Josef

power. It still exerts thuggish control over North Korea, China, Cuba
and to a great extent Venezuela. There is no excuse for anyone who lived
through the Cold War to support any form of communism or its socialism
cousin now. But many do. It’s fashionable in academia and the media and a
growing chorus in the Democratic Party."

"2019 marks 30 years since communism cracked up. Thirty years on, are we
really going to forget what we won, and why? Will the world wake up in
time?"
