“If I were asked the difference between Socialism and Communism, I could only reply that the Socialist tries to lead us to disaster by foolish words and the Communist could try to drive us there by violent deeds.” — Winston ChurchillThis message has been edited.

Churchill spent as much time with Uncle Joe as any Western leader, so I’ll trust his perspective on the matter. Communism is similar to a religion in that there is a utopian ideal at its core. The problem is that the ideal is so contrary to human nature as to be unattainable in any real form. Anybody who has knowledge of the communist experiment and continues to espouse its virtues is either willfully blind or is gaming the system to their benefit. J Rak Chazak Amats | |||

Churchill hated communism back when they were Bolsheviks, long before he knew Uncle Joe. His hatred for and fear of Hitler motivated his “friendship” with the Ruskies.This message has been edited.

To quote Reagan: “How do you tell a Communist? Well, it’s someone who reads Marx and Lenin. And how do you tell an anti-Communist? It’s someone who understands Marx and Lenin.” J Rak Chazak Amats | |||
