What's to be scared of? Just mass murder and widespread famine, no big deal, right? I mean socialism only kills rich people, the educated, the clergy, farmers, anyone with an opinion that differs from the party orthodoxy, shopkeepers, landlords, people with glasses, teachers, engineers, ethnic minorities, students and loyal communist party members so no big deal!
As the trite and overused saying goes: "History repeats itself."
I'd even submit that a lot of people are influenced by the fears of past events, but very few of them actually are capable of exercising sufficient critical thinking to truly understand what the lessons of the past really meant.
I came to the US (from Denmark) to go to college in in Austin, TX in 1981, and I quite clearly remember being called "a communist" for no other reason than the geography of my birthplace...
I just found it remarkable to see how propaganda from more than a half century ago still influences today's political reality.
You ever heard the term "never forget"?
All we hear about is Nazi Nazi Nazi holocaust holocaust holocaust. On every media channel available.
But you are surprised that people are still put off by the system that slaughtered the most humans of any genocide... Communism slaughtered over 100 million innocents, right before that "Good War" which saved Communism.
You're Damn right we won't forget. Not only are we not going to forget, but the pendulum is now starting to swing the other way.
