Calling Harris A Communist Is An Insult To Communism

Sept. 3, 2024

U.S. IMPERIALISM - FOLLOW THE MONEY

Republicans called Obama a communist, when all his worst actions as president were continuations and expansions of Bush's policies. Democrats called Trump a Nazi when his worst acts were continuations and expansions of Obama's policies. Now we're back to calling Harris a communist, while she supports a genocide that Republicans also support.

Calling Kamala Harris a communist isn't wrong because it degrades Harris, it's wrong because it degrades communism.

All art either helps open people’s eyes or helps close them. Almost all art in mainstream culture helps close them, either by normalizing and celebrating the madness of this civilization, or by numbing people to the discomfort of it. This is not just political, it’s on the front line of politics.

Politics are downstream from culture, and if the culture you are helping to create is mindlessly drifting along with the current of oligarchy and empire, then you have responsibility for where that stream ends up carrying us.
