Did you know that America actually had an Anti Communist Week this year. No, really! It happened from November 2nd through the 8th, and unless you stumbled across a very specific corner of the White House website, you probably missed it entirely.
President Donald J Trump issued a proclamation calling the week “a solemn remembrance of the devastation caused by one of history’s most destructive ideologies.”
I will be honest, I had no idea this happened. That alone makes me feel a little like a Commie, and you know exactly how Communists feel: hungry, disappointed, and waiting 12 for a plumber and having someone else pay for it, while being pretrified if you complain you will be sent to the gulag, or worse.
The bigger question is this: why was none of this advertised. If there was ever a week that deserved a parade, a festival, or at the very least a block party with themed snacks, it was this one. Imagine gathering the kids for a wholesome family game of “Pin the Genocide on the Commie.” (patent pending) That would be educational and fun.
The proclamation goes further, stating that communist regimes “have taken more than 100 million lives” while trying to erase faith, suppress freedom, and destroy prosperity earned through hard work.
That is a rare moment of clarity in modern politics. A modern president stating plainly that communism’s greatest achievement is mass murder. You do not hear that much anymore. In fact, modern Democrats have been polishing Communism (like the turd it is) and wrapping them in phrases like “social justice” and “democratic socialism”.
47 addressed that directly:
“New voices now repeat old lies, cloaking them in the language of social justice and democratic socialism, yet their message remains the same: give up your freedom, place your trust in the power of the government, and trade the promise of prosperity for the empty comfort of control. America rejects this evil doctrine.”
Mr President, I am fully on board with Anti Communist Week. I applaud the proclamation. I support the message. Hell, I would dress up like an Anti-Commie cheerleader if I was asked (I am sorry for that visual), But I also cannot help feeling like the whole thing came up short. We could have done more. We should have done more. At the very least, there should have been a White House YouTube special where regular Americans explain why communism is garbage. The Fat Electrician could have done an hour on it and would have crushed it.
So yes, I appreciate the effort, but next year let’s crank it up. Make it a real celebration. Make it loud. And if someone wants to work an annual requirement into whatever replaces the ACA, lets do it, maybe use the line “you have to pass it to find out what is in it.” Actually, I take that back, that is pretty Commie-Pinko sounding.
Just present it honestly. After all, who would not vote for an official Anti Communist Day.
No really. I want a list of who wouldn’t vote.
