Communism through history wants to destroy all other social orders and to “communize the entire world” no matter what the human cost.
In 2023, the goal to “communize” the world is to “globalize” it under the aegis of the United Nations. It has been continually described over decades in many documents developed by its affiliated organizations, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and state-sponsored private-public partnerships. The list of U.N.-sponsored conferences with the same goal, held in expensive and exotic locales, is very long.
Under communism, each citizen is forced to accept what the state says at any given time. Voicing dissent is controlled and punished by the Communist Party.
In the last three years, the United States has controlled and punished its citizens who dared to voice dissent to the planned pandemic, and they used the law and job losses to force citizens to obey draconian rules. The Democrat Party made sure that people were punished who expressed dissent.
Thought control was state policy, enforced by the Communist Party-controlled published media, radio, theater, and television. Nobody could express ideas that deviated from the party line.
The main stream media today controls the narrative of everything which is distributed to the media outlets by the Democrat Party. Social platforms online censor anybody who violates the Democrat Party narrative.
The communist state controls the economy – the planning, the production, and the distribution of goods and services.
In the last three years, the U.S. government in power controlled economic activity, planning (indirectly), and distribution by forbidding small and medium businesses to stay open. The government allowed only essential ‘crony capitalists’ to stay open.
The communist state determined what was needed in production, the wages, and the prices of goods and services. Because there was no competition, there was no incentive to improve quality, quantity, or diversity of goods, thus shortages were chronic.
During the last three years of government lockdowns, there were shortages, distribution lines were broken and are still affecting many industries, and the diversity of goods was severely reduced.
The communist economy depended to an extent on forced (volunteer) and slave (in gulags) labor. The communist state emphasized heavy industry and weapons, at the expense of the general population who suffered from chronic shortages of food, basics, medicine, medical care, and housing.
In our “capitalist” system, goods and services are supposed to be produced as a direct response to consumer demand and preferences. However, in the last three years, the heavy involvement of the Democrat-controlled government in the economy and its fuel and energy industries has resulted in constant market disruptions in the production, supply, and delivery of many goods and services even though demand is high. Prices have skyrocketed and high inflation is now the norm.
Workers are restricted by the communist state by their labor book and internal passport which must be presented in order to work or when requested by police. A worker can quit his job for reasons only approved by the communist state and with the signed permission of the plant manager. Collective bargaining does not exist in a communist factory.
In the last three years employees in the United States have bee fired for non-compliance with a vaccine, for not wearing a mask, or for speaking against the vaccine, against the mask, or against the draconian dictates of the local, state, or federal government.
The Communist Party has totalitarian power and rules with no regard for the people. The individual exists only to serve the state. Communism is a government of men and not of laws. Minority rule dominates. Those in power have total control and are not accountable to the people. Communist national policy does not care about public opinion. The communist state does not care about the desires of the people. The communist state does not separate executive, legislative, and judicial powers.

Every issue described in the previous paragraph is happening right now in our American government controlled by the Democrat Party and its RINO affiliates.
The communist state removes officials from power by “factionalism or death.” Political dissidents are ostracized from government, the Communist Party, disgraced, and some even executed as traitors to the cause. The party wins and holds power by cheating at the ballot box, fear, terror, and force. Citizens are marched to the voting precinct by communist activists, and the police watches over their shoulders to make sure they vote the right way.
Americans have seen irregularities and cheating at the ballot box in key states on a grand scale, but lady justice closed her eyes despite ample evidence. The Covid-19 pandemic has been used as an excuse to entrench cheating by mail-in voting.
Communist education has one important goal – to advance communism everywhere. Students are indoctrinated to be subservient, obedient, and conformist to the wishes of the state. Science and art must reflect life in the communist world and its alleged virtues. Teachers must conform to the communist party line and must indoctrinate students to reflect that line.
Teachers in this country are serving the interests of the Marxist unions, of the Democrat government in power, and the minority groups that control the narrative, globalism, racism, and sexual deviance. Parents have lost their parental rights to school boards, the Department of Education, academia, and public schools in general. Some parents have been barred from their children’s schools and others arrested for asking about their children’s curriculum, textbooks, and library books with pornographic and deviant content.
Individuals under communism have no dignity or freedom – the state has complete power over them. The communist constitution is a document that exists only for propaganda purposes.
Our U.S. Constitution is actually displayed as a document in a museum hall built around it. Congress and the legal system pay lip service to its existence but they alter its intent all the time.
There is no freedom of speech, press, and assembly under communism unless it serves the propaganda goals of the Communist Party. If one speaks against the party or the state, he will be disappeared in the middle of the night. Rights and privileges are given as rewards for good behavior.
Americans are now censored on a much larger scale than the Communist Party ever could with the help of politicians, technocrats, crony capitalists, technology, and the mainstream media. Americans are afraid to voice their opinions publicly for fear of losing their jobs or worse. The rights of all Americans are no longer guaranteed by law since we have a two-tier justice system. Rights and privileges are doled out as rewards just like they were under communism.
Law and order are inseparable from political control under communism – the law subordinates people to the state. The accused must provide proof of his innocence. The state has discretion to detain anybody without cause – he is “socially dangerous.” Citizens are denied open trials. The courts are instruments of the party and the secret police exists to enforce the dictates of the state.
With the existence of the two-tier justice system dominated by Democrat-appointed judges, are we that different from the communist state?
Private property is very limited by the communist state. People can own personal items, household stuff, and a plot of land on which they may live but not derive an income.
In the U.S., for the time being, we are still allowed to own private property and real estate from which we can earn additional income.
The communist state forbids religion and religious assembly. Churches are places of baptism, marriage, and last rites. The state destroys religion because it wants to create the “communist man” whose religion is atheism. The state employs priests for the purpose of indoctrinating the congregants.
We have a variety of religions in this country, but they are fast becoming indoctrination centers that promote the Democrat Party platform and ideology, displaying the proper BLM and gay flags on the marquee.
The communist state forbids travel and citizens are required to have personal identification documents with them at all times; changes of address must be reported immediately to the police. Villagers are not allowed to set up residence in the city. Heavily fortified borders isolate citizens from the rest of the world. Contacts with foreigners are forbidden and punished by law.
As President Biden and his Democrats dismantled the southern and northern borders, we are now an open land invaded daily by thousands of foreign nationals who come for welfare and nefarious reasons. They vote Democrat and are left alone to establish their own enclaves.
You be the judge - without borders, language, and a distinct culture, are we still a country? And how close are we to a totalitarian state?
